Dead at 50

 

Comedian Bernie Mac dies aged 50

 

The comedian starred in recent trilogy of Ocean's films.

Actor and comedian Bernie Mac has died at the age of 50.

 

The star was best known in the UK for film roles in Ocean's Eleven, Charlie's Angels and Transformers.

 

But in the US, he achieved critical and popular acclaim for the long-running sitcom The Bernie Mac Show, which earned him two Emmy award nominations.

 

He was admitted to hospital in Chicago last week and died early on Saturday morning due to complications arising from pneumonia, his publicist said.

 

Damica Taylor said no other details were available and asked that his family's privacy be respected.

 

The comedian suffered from sarcoidosis, an inflammatory lung disease that produces tiny lumps of cells in the body's organs.

 

However, he said the condition went into remission in 2005.

 

 

Mac is survived by his wife Rhonda, daughter Je'Niece and a granddaughter.
