Actor Jeff Conaway has passed away after spending two weeks in a coma.
Jeff, who played sexy Kenickie in the hit movie Grease, was sadly taken off life support.
He was admitted to hospital on May 11 after an overdose and placed in a medically induced coma.
Conaway had been treating himself with pain pills and cold medicine while in a weakened condition, his manager Phil Brock said.
His Grease co-star John Travolta paid tribute to him in a statement.
“My heartfelt thoughts are with his family and loved ones at this very difficult time,” he said. “We will miss him.”
RIP Jeff.
