  24. According to TMZ, sources revealed that Young’s body was discovered with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was found by his landlord, after not showing up for work today on the set of TNT’s drama ‘Rizzoli & Isles.’ Further details have not been released.Before making a name for himself as Detective Barry Frost alongside Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander on ‘Rizzoli & Isles,’ Young was known as Jett Jackson on Disney’s ‘The Famous Jett Jackson.’ Young even wrote an episode of 'The Famous Jett Jackson,' proving his wit and talents behind the camera, as well. From that moment on, Young stole hearts as one of Disney’s top stars. Soon after the series ended, he moved on to other projects, including the 2004 movie ‘Friday Night Lights,’ but the small screen seemed to be what tugged at his acting talents. He was known for recurring on ‘Scrubs’ and ‘Smallville,’ in addition to starring on the short-lived ABC drama ‘FlashForward.’ Young knew he wanted to act since childhood; at age ten, he portrayed Martin Luther King, Jr. in a school play entitled 'A Night of Stars and Dreams.' Young moved to New York City in order to pursue his dream...one that he achieved, by all accounts. This promising career of this impressive talent has been tragically cut all too short. Young's publicist released the following statement to TMZ, “It is with great sadness that I announce that Lee Thompson Young tragically took his own life this morning ... Lee was more than just a brilliant young actor, he was a wonderful and gentle soul who will be truly missed.”
  25. As first reported by TMZ, Kelly passed away in her sleep late Wednesday night. The actress checked herself into rehab last week to battle her addiction to alcohol and drugs. Kelly's agent told TMZ that Kelly was determined to clean herself up and live a sober life, prior to her untimely passing. She had reportedly fallen off the wagon recently after a dispute with her estranged husband, Robert Gilliam. Kelly's estranged husband beat her last May to obtain residual money from her show. He was convicted of domestic battery last month and sentenced to 3 years probation. He also served 35 days in jail for the beating. Kelly filed for divorce from her abusive husband back in July. The cause of Kelly's death, according to TMZ, is cardiac arrest. Kelly first broke into acting in an episode of 'Married with Children' in 1992. From there, she went on to appear in shows like 'Murphy Brown' and 'Charmed' before landing her role on the hit sitcom 'That '70s Show.' In 2010, Kelly was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol; her substance abuse issues became public record and she has appeared on many talk shows discussing her battles against addiction. Kelly was forty-three years old. Source: 'That '70s Show' Actress Lisa Robin Kelly Dead at 43
