Actor Tyron Perez found dead

StarStruck alumnus Tyron (not Tyrone) Perez was reportedly found dead inside an abandoned car (Plate Number ZSP-875) in Valenzuela City.

He was 26 years old. Initial reports suggested that he committed suicide. He signed up with Star Magic in 2010 and he was set to star in an ABS-CBN teleserye in 2012.


Tyrone is married to a certain flight attendant who is currently in the country for a vacation, according to reports. But despite being with his wife, there are reports saying that Tyrone was always seen lately in the vicinity of Brgy. Ugong, Valenzuela, at the back of a friend’s house. This is why aside from suicide, foul play is also being looked into as a possible cause of the young actor’s death.

There are also reports saying that Perez has a gun shot wound but there’s no confirmation from the police regarding this matter as of yet.

26-year-old Tyron Perez was best known for being one of the finalists of the first season of GMA-7′s reality based artista search “StarStruck.” He is now the second StarStruck alumnus who died in the month of December after Marky Cielo.

Six months after his manager’s death (Douglas Quijano), Tyron transferred to ABS-CBN.

He appeared in the now defunct ABS-CBN drama series “Momay,” “Imortal” and “Mula sa Puso.”

Perez’ last TV appearance was the December 3 episode of “Maalaala Mo Kaya,” where he played the love interest of Ejay Falcon’s character.

Star Magic, which co-manages Tyron with director Jerry Lopez-Sineneng, said in a statement: "Our deepest condolences to the family of Tyron. Let's pray for the eternal repose of his soul."
