Cicely Tyson

MOON ON A FUNERAL SHAWL

 

Actress and model Cicely Tyson has somewhat surprised deadpoolers by dying at the age of only 96. One of the seemingly better aging nonagenarians in some time, many expected she’d see 100. She hasn’t. Tyson was best known for her roles in films such as Sounder (for which she was nominated for an Oscar), The Help and Hoodlum. The former wife of Miles Davis, and godmother of Lenny Kravitz, Tyson was a Tony and Emmy Award winning actress. She was picked by 8 teams, including Pool Ghoul, Mr Whits Wonders and Zombie Dance Party.
