Comedian Taylor Negron has sadly died at the age of 57 following a long battle with cancer.
The news was broken by his cousin Chuck Negron in a video he posted online, according to Deadline.
“I want to inform you that my cousin Taylor Negron has just passed away. His mother, his brother Alex and my brother’s wife Renee were all there with him. May he rest in peace,” he said in the clip.
Taylor is well known for his roles in the films Fast Times at Ridgemont High as Mr. Pizza Guy, Easy Money as Rodney Dangerfield‘s son-in-law, and the villain in The Last Boy Scout.
We send out our thoughts and condolences to Taylor‘s loved ones during this difficult time.
Yep!
“literally anything on the body can become cancerous”
True, but when it gets to your liver or your pancreas, you have only weeks or even days left.
It just seems weird to post a thread about the death of a B-list actor, in order to announce he was gay, and that you don’t what sort of cancer he died from. I mean, really. Is it so important? (either his gayness OR his cancer?)
Not to mention his last name is a little bit racist also IMO.
He was a funny guy, enjoyed his work. RIP.
I didn’t know he had cancer. F cancer man.
RIP.
Very classy post from the thread starter.

I wondered if he died from anal cancer, which homosexuals get 40 times more often than heterosexuals. I was informed he died from liver cancer. I’ve explained this already. I assume you haven’t read all the posts.
I loved him in “Easy Money”. A classic comedy. Him & Rodney were so, so funny in their scenes together. “Can I call you ‘Dad’?”
I enjoyed his cameo as “The Pizza Guy” in “Fast Times At Ridgemont High”.
Wow - this was a shocker! RIP.
What a tacky, distasteful thread. You should be ashamed. RIP, Taylor.
Dr. Vindaloo: “Those are fresh stitches, you know!”
I distinctly remember him from some weird show I watched as a kid in the 90’s, it was on Sat or Sunday and I think it had something to do with a courtroom and/or science (I think it was educational), I can’t for the life of me remember anything else about it.
He was Elaine’s hairdresser in the Beyond B.O. episode of Seinfeld. To get rid of the stink he recommends washing her hair repeatedly and finishing with a cream rinse. If that doesn’t work—tomato sauce.
Could it be this ?

ouch
I was wrong it wasn’t him, I finally remembered the character was called Stenographer Fred. The actor’s name is Fred Stoller, kind looks like Negron. I saw Negron in movies later on and though it was the same guy, LOL.
And show was called “Science Court” (so I was right on the money.)
Ah, OK.
I've heard of anal cancer, but never Taylor Negron.
I miss Mitch Hedberg.
Pizza delivery guy in Fast Times
How does this reporter know he "sadly died"? Perhaps he happily died. Because I know I'm going to heaven, I expect to die happily; he may have had the same attitude.
