On April 1st, Eugene Levy just opened up about losing his longtime collaborator Catherine O'Hara on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The shits Creek star called her irreplaceable and said her death feels like a collective loss for everyone who loved her work. O'Hara passed away at 71 on January 30 after a short illness, with pulmonary embolism as the main cause and rectal cancer underneath. Her career spanned classics like Beetlejuice and Home Alone, plus those hilarious Christopher guest movies. But she hit a huge resurgence as Moira Rose on Shits Creek, the over-the-top family matriarch adjusting to small-town life. That role earned her an Emmy and reunited her with Levy after more than 50 years of teaming up on comedy gold. Fans and friends poured out love right after her passing, showing how much she connected with people. Levy described her as extended family long before she played his on-screen wife. Fallon chimed in too, calling her one of the funniest ever. Even after her death, O'Hara picked up a posh-chemist actor award for outstanding actress

in a comedy series for her work on Apple TV's The Studio. Levy hailed her as one of the greatest queens in comedy. Her life keeps shining through all those memories, reminding us why she was so beloved in the game. Entertainment and celebrity news, today, powered by AI bringing you what's trending. I'm Corey with The Story.
