Last Photos Taken of Celebrities Before They Died
Andy Kaufman – Died May 16, 1984
Most would recognize Andy Kaufman as a talented actor and comedian who got his start in Saturday Night Live. However, Andy considered himself a performance artist and a “song and dance man.” The Jim Carrey-starrer Man on the Moon was based on his life. Ironically, one of his popular gags was on faking his own death. Unfortunately, his fiction became truth when in late 1983, he was diagnosed with a rare type of lung cancer. After seeking cancer treatment, some of which were rather unconventional, he died of the disease in 1984. In his very last show, a fan managed to snap this Polaroid of Andy.
