Ballerina Michaela Mabinty DePrince, who performed with Beyoncé and was seen by many as a trailblazer, has died at the age of 29.
A spokesperson announced her death on her personal Instagram page and in a statement her family said she was an “unforgettable inspiration to everyone who knew her or heard her story”.
The cause of death has not been given.
DePrince made a remarkable journey from suffering as an orphan in war-torn Sierra Leone to numerous accolades in the world of international dance.
Her family said her death had been “sudden”, adding: “Michaela touched so many lives across the world, including ours.”
Tributes have been pouring in, including from others in the ballet community.
Do we want to know? Yes.
Do we have a right to know? No.
Case closed.
Incorrect. Death certificate is a public document listing, among other things, the COD.
Then go find it. Nobody is stopping you.
The vast majority of states limit who has access to death certificates.
You can’t get your hands on the certified copy of a death certificate unless you’re an authorized individual. But in many states, any member of the public can request an informational copy of a death certificate.
Well in the particular state in which she lived, New York, it is not public record.
I thought she lived in Boston
So not public then.
I see.
How do you figure?
