R.I.P. Actress Yvette Wilson (MoEsha, The Parkers, Friday) [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

Jun, 15 2012 | Written by ATLien
Actress Yvette Wilson, who played Andell Wilkerson on the UPN sitcom Moesha and also on a spin-off from the show, The Parkers, has passed away at 48.

Wilson had been fighting stage 4 cervical cancer and Shar Jackson, who starred alongside the talented actress on MoEsha was among first the share the news online yesterday.

Additional details below:

Wilson was also a stand up comedienne who appeared on HBO’s Def Comedy Jam. She also co-starred on ‘The Parkers’ alongside comedienne Monique’ and such memorable films such as “House Party 2,” “House Party 3,” and ”Friday.”

According to NewsOne, Wilson was not only battling cancer but had also been plagued with kidney problems and was in need of a kidney transplant as well.

Friend Jeffrey Pittle, a stage 4 cancer survivor himself, created a website for Wilson, so that people could donate money for not only her medical needs but also help with any transportation costs that are associated with her getting to various medical facilities.

To date, the site had raised $13,599 of the $25,000 they were seeking — or 54 percent. The fundraiser ended June 9, 2012.

As previously reported by NewsOne, Wilson is the fifth tragedy that has occurred from the “Moesha” show:

Star Brandy Norwood struck and killed a woman with her vehicle. Merlin Santana, who played Moesha’s first boyfriend, “Ohaji,” was only 26 years young when he was shot dead in California as he sat in the passenger seat of a car. Mac, who had the recurring role of “Uncle Mitchell” and was Andell’s boyfriend, died in 2008 from complications of pneumonia. The ever-popular “Hakeem,” Moesha’s sidekick who was played by Lamont Bentley, was killed in a car crash more than 6 years ago.

You may have also read that Ice Cube was planning a reunion for the cast of the original Friday’s film in the final sequel for the film.

Wilson also played alongside comedian Chris Tucker in one of the funniest moments from the film.

RIP Yvette Wilson ((March 6, 1964 — June 14, 2012)

  I agree with @JustMe,Monique and Brandy could have gave her the 46% to make her quota of $25,000. Damn shame how rich people don’t look out for one another,but will waste $10,000 (Ludacris,Lil Wayne in a freaking strip club….smdh!

  May her soul now fine the peace that God has awaiting. I can certainly relate, my mom fought stage III breast cancer for 11 months and has since expired. I quit my job to care for her and let me tell you, it is suffering beyond any measure, wished on noone! Mama called on Jesus to come see about her and I prayed to him to come take her away….it was just that bad! I’ve nightmares most nights still hearing my mother cry out for mercy, in so much pain. Don’t think I’ll ever be the same. May strength find the family of Yvette Wilson, and all others who are suffering or know of someone suffering from cancer…..including me and mine.

  May god bless your family,Yvette is at peace now ,no sorrow ,no more pain,she’s with our lord and savior now .

  I agree! Monique could’ve helped cap the donations at the very least. If you look at Moniques tweets she doesn’t even seem impacted by her death. No signs of saddness or at least condolences. She told one person "You deal with things your way and I’ll deal with mine my way…do you baby". Just weird to me. All of the other cast members at least posted a condolence message or tweeted about how they were saddened by her loss. Monique just seems to be only out for Monique. Thats why your show was cancelled. Pay it foward and blessings come. Nothing good prospers from selfishness. Shar Jackson was supposedly her best friend and is really taking her death hard. So my prayers go out to Shar and the Wilson family. R.I.P Yvette.

  its really a shame that everyone who claimed to be yevette wilson’friend could’nt step up to the plate to help a sick woman who might have had a chance to live and what’s really sad is none of her socalled friends went to the media to xpress their lost of a real friend to the local news but"" that’s the way black people who have money and power are and forget where they come from candance vaugh, monique ,dorin wilson ? even if you guys were not close friends god would have blessed you for helping a costar that you use to work with you black stars today are no different than these young kids in the streets you stars should take time to think about that we as black people in any life style that we choose to live should really focus on respect its your choice to pick your friends true enough but don’t get it twisted you’re no bigger than no one else
