Bruce Almighty Star Has Died
A star from Bruce Almighty has died, their spokesperson has revealed.
It was announced just yesterday (November 11) that a star from Bruce Almighty has died at a hospice in Palm Springs, US.
It was reported that they died just days after entering the hospice, following a prolonged health battle.
Prior to the actress’s passing, friends of the star set up a GoFundMe page to support their urgent care expenses.
The message read: “As a result today, she finds herself facing a significant health crisis.
“One that has not only affected her well-being but also requires urgent and quality medical care that she can no longer afford.”
Health battle
The fundraiser went into detail about the health battle the celebrity had faced in recent years.
It added: “This past year, she fractured four bones in her neck, right wrist, and her left hip.
“While recovering she developed two separate life-threatening infections.
“The combination of these injuries and infections have required extensive hospitalizations and rehab beyond the 100 days insurance will cover.”
The money raised to help pay for the star’s treatment had exceeded $60,000 (£45,000).
Tributes to the star
Following the announcement of the actress’s death, hundreds of fans took to social media to share their condolences, as well as a number of famous faces.

“She was an indelible character actor and red carpet icon who was never anything short of memorable.
“Her awards season campaign for ANNA, a powerhouse performance all should see, will always be the greatest.”
Another added: “RIP, a true Oscar legend!”
One said: “RIP to the queen of unexpected cameos, avant-garde vibe & every wild character that ever said ‘Did she just say that?!’
“Gone to script that next scene in the sky.”
Acting career
Sally Kirkland was born in New York City and was encouraged by her mother, a Vogue fashion editor, to start modeling at just five.
She later went on to graduate from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in 1961, and had a notable career in the entertainment industry.
The Bruce Almighty star also appeared in The Sting, Charlie’s Angels, Anna, Cold Feet, and The Haunted.
She was also nominated for an Academy Award and won a Golden Globe for her role in the 1987 comedy-drama Anna.
Most recently in 2024, she appeared in Sallywood.
The movie was based on a true story about a writer who had become obsessed with meeting her.
According to TMZ, her friend and former student Cody Galloway was by her side before her death, with her representative Michael Greene flying in during the days before her passing.
The Golden Globe-winning actress had suffered dementia for many years, and was 84 when she passed away this week.
