Andy Hallett, a singer who gained fame playing a green-skinned demon on cult US TV series Angel, has died of congestive heart disease aged 33.
Hallett was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles after having problems breathing and died there on Sunday, his agent Pat Brady said.
Mr Brady said Hallett's death followed a five-year battle with a heart condition.
The star proved himself a fan favourite on Angel as Lorne, a green-skinned, red-horned good guy demon who ran a karaoke club and could read a person's aura when they sang.
He appeared in more than 70 episodes of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer spin-off between 2000 and 2004.
