This time it's true and his rep has released a statement. "Actor/comedian Bernie Mac passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital," his publicist, Danica Smith, said in a statement from Los Angeles.

The news is just sad this morning and this is the saddest news of all. My heart goes out to his family and so many of us will miss Bernie Mac. "I came from a place where there wasn't a lot of joy," Mac told the AP in 2001. "I decided to try to make other people laugh when there wasn't a lot of things to laugh about."

You sure made me laugh, Bernie, rest in peace. Bernie Mac was only 50 years old.

i only saw him in Bad Santa...it is sad that he died though...
His TV show was really good and based on his real life. He took in his drug addicted sisters three kids and raised them.
That is so sad. The guy worked so much. Maybe too much. What a loss. My heart goes out to his family too.
He had Sarcoidosis, and I have that disease as well. Mine is in remission (as was his), but even so, it compromises your lungs. I have terrible trouble when there are fires, or when the road is being tarred, or there's construction nearby. I can only imagine what a bout of pneumonia would do. The disease is also worse for African Americans than for any other race or nationality, for some unknown reason.
I'm shocked and sad. He was an amazing comedian. My heart goes out to his family. May he rest in peace.

TIP Bernie you will be missed
proof that if you want your life to be private it can be, didn't even know he was sick.
who's going to take care of the kids now? are they all grown up? was he married? What a shame.
