Kim McGuire, who played Hatchet-Face in the movie Cry-Baby, has passed away.
Kim McGuire, who played Mona 'Hatchet-Face' Malnorowski alongside Johnny Depp in the 1990 cult musical comedy Cry-Baby, has died aged 60.
McGuire's husband, Eugene Piotrowsky, told TMZ the actress died yesterday in a Florida hospital after suffering two heart attacks following a difficult battle with pneumonia.
According to a GoFundMepage set up by friend Suzy Hixson, McGuire was an accomplished theatre actress, lawyer, and author.
"Anyone who met her knew she lit up a room the second she walked in," Hixson wrote.
Our dear friend Kim McGuire passed away September 14th. Kim was best known for her role as Mona "Hatchet-Face"...
McGuire and her husband, an Emmy-winning television producer, lost their home when Hurricane Katrina hurtled through New Orleans in 2005.
"They actually had to swim out of their home!" Hixson wrote. "As one could imagine, this took a toll on both Kim and Gene mentally and physically. They lost all things dear to them and had to rebuild their life together from square one."
