GREGORY HINES – LIVER CANCER

Gregory Hines starred in many successful movies, but perhaps his most memorable performance was in Renaissance Man in 1994. Before his appearance in big movie projects to his credit, such as History of the World: Part I, Hines was singing and composing music for the rock band Severance. He was one of the best actors, tap dancers, and choreographers of his time. His tap-dancing skills is a major figure in the late 20th century.

Hines even releases an album of songs aside from his dancing and acting work. Sad to say, though, that the talented star was diagnosed with liver cancer. Although he underwent treatment, Hines succumbed to the disease just a year after his diagnosis. He drew his last breath in 2003. It is known that the survival rate of liver cancer is low, and if left untreated, the cancer cells will spread to other body organs, eventually causing death.
