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.
Never heard of “Anal Cancer”. Is that pretty much the same thing as Colon Cancer? If not, pardon my ignorance.
Farah Fawcett died from it.
He was so good in Easy Money. RIP.
Um... what?
He played bit roles in a lot of movies in the 80s.
But yes he did set the Gaydar all the way to 11 even back then.
Shoot. I couldn’t find it online, and Wikipedia never occurred to me. Oh well, I guess he gets a commemorative post.
Chuck Negron the cousin who announced it was a former member of Three Dog Night. Lead singer on songs One, The show must go on, and Joy to the world.
He had a very small part in an old favorite of mine: “One Crazy Summer”, as one of the gas station attendants.
I remember only because I have watched that movie many many times when I was a kid.. kinda had a huge crush on Demi Moore, and Bobcat Goldthwait’s character cracked me up.
I don’t know. I found a site that was explaining what gay bowel syndrome was, & it said it included colon & anal cancer, so, I’m guessing they’re different cancers.
Apparently, homosexuals are prone to anal cancer.
Can’t you just say may he rest in peace?
#11 was in response to someone’s question, which dictated my reply. You’re welcome to say whatever you want.
That is what killed Farrah Fawcett. Not the same as colon cancer.
I remember he was so funny in that movie. Loved how he butted heads with Dangerfield’s character when he married his daughter. LOL
RIP Taylor
Wasn’t he in Better Off Dead as the mailman who asks to date Beth?
I had an aunt die of that.
I might vaguely remember that, possibly
literally anything on the body can become cancerous
