RIP Tawny Kitaen dead at 59

[La_Tigre]

An absolute icon of the hair metal days…genuinely a lovely lady. 

[Ginseng]

So sad. She was a school boy's icon back in the day. RIP, Tawny!

Just saw the Seinfeld episode she was on just the other day. Didnt she marry a MLB pitcher ?

[Habana Mike]

Damn! She was a sex kitten back in the day.

I did not know until I checked Wikipedia but was at the same concert as the first one she went to:

Wikipedia: Kitaen was born Julie Kitaen in San Diego, California, in 1961, the daughter of Linda Kitaen (née Taylor), a housewife and one-time beauty pageant participant, and Terry Kitaen, an employee of a neon sign company.^[1]  Kitaen began using the nickname "Tawny" at the age of 12 on her own initiative.^[4] She went to her first rock concert at age 14 where she saw Peter Frampton at Balboa Stadium.^[5] There she and her girlfriends were given backstage passes, and upon seeing the All-Access VIP treatment afforded to Frampton's girlfriend Penny, she aspired to this for herself.^[6]
