Deadline Hollywood announced: “BREAKING: Norm MacDonald has died “after a long and private battle with cancer” The influential comedian and former ‘SNL’ Weekend Update anchor was 61.”

An unknown account said: “It’s really sad to see Norm Macdonald passed away. He is the greatest comedian of all time and has supplied me with many great jokes to tell at inappropriate times.”

One wrote: “Norm MacDonald was absolutely perfect in that Klaus movie. I was ecstatic to hear his voice when I put it on for my kids, and of course, he killed in the role. Going to miss the hell out of his deadpan humor.”

Paco Romane said: “RIP Norm MacDonald. He was always super nice to me and called me “Pahco.” I worked with him in SF & a few times on the road. He liked to prank me on stage during my set. We talked a lot about documentaries, music, hockey, comedy, and SNL. He was kind, sweet, weird, and very funny.”

Another person tweeted: “Norm MacDonald is hands down my greatest hero, and I hope to one day achieve a fraction of what he achieved in the world of comedy. RIP to the funniest comic ever.”

One expressed: “Sorry to those who loved him for your loss, but over the last few years, Norm MacDonald spoke out against Me Too & defended abusers feeling so bad about what’s taken away from THEM. He was perfectly fine on SNL, but that overshadows his supposed legacy for me.”
