Oscar-nominated Lenny actress and Superman star Valerie Perrine has died at 82 after a yearslong battle with Parkinson’s disease, according to the director behind her biographical documentary.
Stacey Souther, who directed Valerie, a documentary short about Perrine’s life, shared the news on social media Monday.
“It is with deep sadness that I share the heartbreaking news that Valerie has passed away,” Souther wrote in the caption of an Instagram post. “She faced Parkinson’s disease with incredible courage and compassion, never once complaining. She was a true inspiration who lived life to the fullest—and what a magnificent life it was. The world feels less beautiful without her in it.”
Souther also shared information for a GoFundMe page to support Perrine’s funeral expenses, writing that “after more than 15 years of fighting Parkinson’s, her finances are exhausted.”
ABC News has reached out to Souther for comment.
Perrine was born in Galveston, Texas, and worked for some time as a showgirl in Las Vegas before entering the film industry.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, in 1969, while still working as a showgirl, Perrine was romantically involved with celebrity hairstylist Jay Sebring and was invited to — but did not attend — the infamous 1969 dinner party at the home of Sharon Tate where Sebring, Tate and several others were killed by the Manson Family in the now-infamous Tate-LaBianca murders.
Perrine earned early recognition in 1972’s Slaughterhouse-Five, playing adult film actress Montana Wildhack, and clinched her most critically acclaimed role in 1974’s Lenny, the biographical drama based on the life of famed comedian Lenny Bruce.
Dustin Hoffman played Lenny Bruce in the film, and Perrine played his wife Honey Bruce. Perrine was nominated for an Academy Award for her performance and won the best actress award at the 1975 Cannes Film Festival. The role also earned her a Golden Globe nod and two BAFTA nominations.
In 1978, Perrine took on perhaps her most noteworthy role as Eve Teschmacher, the girlfriend of DC Comics villain Lex Luthor, in Superman.
Perrine would go on to play the same role in 1980’s Superman II.

Kirsten Dunst is set to star in The Housemaid sequel.
Lionsgate made the casting announcement on social media Monday. Dunst will star as Wendy Garrick in the upcoming film adaptation of The Housemaid’s Secret.
The studio shared a photo of Dunst, along with a quote from author Freida McFadden’s second book in the trilogy, to announce the news.
“Welcome home, Wendy. The Housemaid’s Secret – coming soon,” the post’s caption reads.
The quote Lionsgate shared reads, “I would prefer if you refer to me as Mrs. Garrick.”
Lionsgate announced plans for a film adaptation of The Housemaid’s Secret in January. At the time, the studio announced it would begin production on the film in 2026.
Sydney Sweeney and Michele Morrone are set to return to their roles of Millie Calloway and Enzo Accardi in the movie. The sequel project is being developed for director Paul Feig to return at the helm. Sweeney will executive produce while Feig also produces through his Pretty Dangerous Pictures alongside Laura Fischer. Rebecca Sonnenshine will once again adapt McFadden’s words for the screen.
The Housemaid follows a woman named Millie (Sweeney), who takes a job as a live-in housemaid for wealthy couple Nina (Amanda Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). What started as a dream job quickly becomes a dangerous and seductive game of secrets and scandal. The film grossed over $395 million worldwide.
At the time the sequel was announced, Feig said, “It’s been thrilling to see audiences around the world fall in love with The Housemaid and the incredible work of our talented cast and crew. We’re lucky that Freida McFadden has already extended Millie’s journey on the page, and that we get to work with Rebecca Sonnenshine and Lionsgate to bring this next story to audiences.”
The voices of HUNTR/X have sung “Golden” everywhere from the Oscars to the BRIT Awards to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and now they might be singing it on tour.
According to Bloomberg, Netflix is planning a “global concert tour” based around the film and its hit soundtrack. Netflix is currently negotiating with concert promoters for the tour. It would take place in 2027, well ahead of the upcoming sequel, sources tell Bloomberg. Tens of millions of dollars have been offered, but sources also say Netflix may pull the plug based on costs, or if the streamer can’t figure out how to pull it off.
Why wouldn’t it be able to pull it off? According to Bloomberg, it’s not clear who would actually perform. The voices of HUNTR/X — EJAE, Rei Ami and Audrey Nuna — might be involved, but virtual or hologram performers have also been discussed. “It’s unlikely the three women would perform at every stop,” Bloomberg notes.
As per Bloomberg, a talent agency is considering backing a tour featuring the three women without Netflix’s involvement, but if they did that, they wouldn’t be able to reference the film without the streamer’s permission.
As for Saja Boys, the singers who provide their voices in the film have never performed live.
In various interviews, EJAE, Rei Ami and Audrey Nuna have said they wouldn’t be surprised if a tour happened, and EJAE has signaled her willingness to be involved in such a project.

(WASHINGTON) — Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents began fanning out at more than a dozen airports across the nation on Monday to assume some of the duties of Transportation Security Administration officers affected by a federal government funding crisis.
“What I see ICE agents doing is helping TSA plug the holes of security,” White House Border Czar Tom Homan told ABC News on Monday.
President Donald Trump told reporters on Monday that the ICE agents assigned to airports will also continue to enforce immigration laws.
“They really are a high-level group of people and they love it because they’re able to now arrest illegals as they come into the country. That’s very fertile territory,” Trump said during a gaggle with reporters on the tarmac in Palm Beach, Florida. “But that’s not why they’re there. They’re really there to help.”
Homan said that if ICE agents see “illegal activity,” they will take action because they are federal law enforcement officers.
Asked whether the ICE agents will be carrying out immigration enforcement at airports, Homan said, “We’re not going to ignore illegal conduct in the airport whether it’s human trafficking, whether it’s alien smuggling with somebody that’s wanted, whether it’s … someone that they believe they have reasonable suspicion to talk to because they feel there’s a criminal activity in front of them.”
“Of course, anybody would need probable cause to make any arrests, but yeah, their law enforcement officers and they’re not going to ignore the law while we’re there,” Homan said.
“I’m leaving it up to the TSA Administrator, who’s an expert airport operations,” Homan added. “Where can we plug the holes? Where can we increase security, especially in this heightened security environment, because what’s going on the world? Where can we help you to move those lines and American people quicker to inspections while the same time maintaining security at the airport?”
As ICE agents began showing up at airports on Monday, Trump earlier posted a message on social media asking them to refrain from wearing masks while helping with airport security.
“I would greatly appreciate, however, NO MASKS, when helping our Country out of the Democrat caused MESS at the airports,” Trump said in his post, adding that he is a “BIG proponent” of ICE agents wearing masks when they “search for, and are forced to deal with, hardened criminals.”
Asked by reporters on Monday on Air Force One why he wants ICE agents to remove their masks at airports, Trump replied, “Because the people coming into the airport, typically speaking, aren’t murderers, killers, drug dealers, etc. There may be a few of them. But there aren’t many.”
Immigration officials wearing masks has been a key issue for critics in Trump’s nationwide mass deportation program.
Trump added that typical travelers at airports are “people that want to come into the country, and that want to leave the country, going to maybe their home countries, so I didn’t think it was an appropriate look for an airport.”
ICE agents were spotted by ABC News at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport early Monday.
The agents appeared to be helping with crowd control at the airport amid long lines of travelers trying to get through security. At one point, lines stretched outside the Atlanta airport’s terminals.
DHS funding battle continues
Democrats have blocked funding for the Department of Homeland Security in an effort to push for policy reforms to ICE, whose aggressive tactics in enforcing immigration laws have prompted protests and lawsuits across the country.
The DHS reforms that Democratic lawmakers have proposed include requiring ICE agents not to wear face masks, be equipped with body cameras and have warrants signed by a judge before entering homes and businesses.
Republicans have, so far, rejected those proposals.
ICE and TSA are both under the umbrella of DHS. But while ICE has remained funded through appropriations from Trump’s tax and spending bill passed last summer, key DHS agencies like TSA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Coast Guard are left unfunded.
Approximately 60,000 TSA officers have gone over a month with partial pay and last week began getting no paychecks as the stalemate over DHS funding continues.
Some TSA officers have begun calling out sick or quitting as they missed their first paycheck since the shutdown began on Feb. 14. DHS said that more than 400 TSA officers have quit so far.
Confusion over duties of ICE agents
On Sunday, Homan said the deployment of ICE would largely free up TSA agents for specialized tasks, like passenger and bag screening.
Homan, however, said ICE agents are not trained to do specialized work like screening passengers and running X-ray machines.
“But there are roles we can play to release TSA officers from the non-significant role, such as guarding an exit, so they can get back to the scanning machines and move people quicker,” Homan said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Speaking on Fox News Sunday, Homan said that “ICE can check identification before people enter the screening area.”
But in an interview Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy seemed to contradict Homan.
Asked by Jon Karl, ABC News’ chief Washington correspondent, whether the ICE agents have any practical experience in manning airport security lines, Duffy said, “They run those same type of security machines at the Southern border, right? Packages come through or people come through. They run similar assets.”
Duffy added that ICE agents could also manage the flow of travelers through airport security and help TSA with administrative tasks.
“It depends on who shows up. Every single day will dictate how long these lines are,” Duffy said. “And you don’t know as travelers are trying to figure out, do I have to come an hour-and-a-half early? Do I have to come four hours early? They don’t know until the day of or the afternoon of their flight.”
Homan attempted to clarify what duties ICE agents would have at the airports during an interview on Monday with ABC News. Homan said that Duffy might have been referring to machines used for luggage and other packages that ICE agents already run at airports.
Homan told ABC News that ICE and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) “have a footprint of all the airports, because that’s where we open investigations on currency smuggling and human trafficking.”
“So ICE is involved with baggage investigations on that. So there is a sort of screening,” Homan said.
Kesha, The Freedom Tour, promoted by Live Nation (Ruby Boland)
The name of Kesha’s new tour is much more family-friendly than her 2025 trek, which had a name we can’t really say out loud.
The singer will launch The Freedom Tour May 23 in Chula Vista, California, and wrap things up Aug. 30 in Noblesville, Indiana. In between, she’ll also perform on June 6 at Toronto’s All Things Go Festival and on June 14 at Tennessee’s Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.
Kesha says of the tour, “I’ve lived through the fire. This tour is about what comes after. Freedom isn’t just leaving something behind — it’s discovering that what you have lived through has made you magnificently who you are”
“This summer we are reclaiming our bodies, our voices, and our joy,” she adds. “We have survived. Now we get to be free. Let’s be free together. I want to know what freedom feels like, with all of you.”
Presales start Tuesday at 10 a.m. local time and run through the week. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. local at KeshaOfficial.com.
