If you grew up in the 90s, you are all too familiar with the popular show Moesha. Sadly, actress and comedian Yvette Wilson, who played Andell Wilkerson, has passed away. The 48-year-old also starred in the UPN’s Moesha and its spinoff The Parkers.
Wilson has been battling stage four cervical cancer as well as kidney disease. Months ago, a friend of Wilson’s created a website in order to collect funds to help her with her medical needs.
Her friend and co-star, Shar Jackson took to Twitter to share the news. "I wanna thank all my tweeties for their prayers but god has taken my sister Yvette home."
Before her big break on Moesha alongside Brandy Norwood, Wilson was a regular on Russell Simmon’s Def Comedy Jam and attended San Jose State University in California. Wilson also appeared in several movies including House Party 2, House Party 3, Poetic Justice and Friday.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Wilson’s family in friends.
