FANS expressed concern for Kirstie Alley just weeks before she passed away at age 71.
In her final Instagram video, Kirstie was promoting her Cameo account so her fans could receive a personalized message from the Cheers star.
She began the video by introducing herself, and it appeared she ended up slurring a few words.
Kirstie said that fans have been asking her to make these “greetings,” and she did what her fans asked her to do.
In the background, you could hear her new “baby” yowl, as she had gotten a new dog.
She said: “Congratulations to me, I’d say!”
Kirstie then went into a mock Cameo to give her fans an idea of what they would be buying.
She told her fans she’ll record a message for any occasion. She said: “Merry Christmas! Or, I want a divorce. Whatever you need!”
She ended the video by throwing a peace sign at the camera, but that’s not the only strange hand movement that was in the video.
SPARKING CONCERN
From the beginning of the video, Kirstie’s hand motions were erratic and uncontrolled.
Her facial expressions and voice pattern were also very irregular, and her fans noticed.
A fan said: “Girl, are you okay? Why are you talking like that?”
Another wrote: “Are these facial expressions a cry for help or…?”
While some fans were deeply concerned about the celebrity’s health, other commenters thought her facial expressions were due to plastic surgery.
One person wrote: “Don’t even recognize you with all the facial “help!” That is sad!”
KIRSTIE’S LEGACY
Kirstie rose to fame when she starred in the ’80s and ’90s sitcom Cheers for which she won an Emmy Award in 1991 and a Golden Globe for her role of Rebecca Howe.
She suddenly died of “recently discovered” cancer, and her family announced her passing on Monday, Dec. 5.
The statement said: “She was surrounded by her closest family and fought with great strength.”
It continued: “As iconic as she was on screen, she was an even more amazing mother and grandmother.”
