Andy Hallett, a singer who gained fame portraying a green-skinned demon Lorne on the vampire TV series “Angel,” has died at age 33, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County coroner’s office said Tuesday.
A Sunday telephone call to 911 had Hallett complaining of shortness of breath, coroner’s spokesman Ed Winter said. The actor was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 8:35 p.m. An autopsy is pending.
Hallett’s “Angel” character was the consummate greeter at a karaoke bar named Caritas, where he was able to read people by how they sang.
Hallett was in 76 episodes and sang in six.
