Patty Perez, also known as Goddess Patty, is no more. The actress died on September 17 at a hospital in Reno.

Reports say that Patty Perez was being treated for type 1 diabetes, which she had since birth, and did not die because of Covid-19.

The internet sensation’s daughter Priscilla said that her mother’s kidneys were failing because of issues with health and weight for a long time. However, she lived her life despite her health issues.

Patty Perez is survived by her four children, a mother, and grandchildren, and was 57 years old at the time of her death. Details relating to the funeral are yet to be revealed by the family.


Patty Perez in brief: Life and career

Patty Perez is mainly known for her role as Goddess Patty in popular Jackass films. She became a familiar face after Jackass 2 in 2006 and Jackass 2.5 the following year.

Her character, Goddess Patty, could make the stuntman, Wee Man, disappear by jumping upon him while he laid down on the bed.

After the actress jumped on Wee Man, her body covered him, and suddenly Johnny Knoxville appeared and asked where Wee Man was.
