I'm not normally one to be super affected by celebrity deaths but I legit started crying when I read that. That generation of Canadian comedy legends were just so good.

I am shocked and so sad by the news of Catherine O'Hara. Devastating.

This feels all wrong. I was just watching her in "The Studio." Such a vibrant, funny lady and so good at her craft. This news is awful.

"The last time I felt this emotionally encumbered I was playing Lady MacBeth on a Crystal Skies cruise ship during Shakespeare-at-Sea Week!"

I was hoping it was fake

So was I. I first saw the news on Reddit and I immediately googled to check for other sources because I didn't want it to be true.

She was amazing and I can't remember a time where I wasn't aware of her and her work. Even though I didn't see any of it really outside of Home Alone until I was older. Definitely going to dig out my copy of Best in Show to watch. It's an ensemble sure, but she's amazing in it.

I got a push notification on my phone from Apple News in the middle of a show, and I was shaken for the rest of the night. RIP

I got one minutes before I had to play for a funeral at the church where I work. The woman who died was exactly the same age as Catherine O'Hara - 71.
