Tawny Kitaen, the actress best known for her role in 1984’s “Bachelor Party” starring Tom Hanks, has died. She was 59 years old.

TMZ reports the San Diego native died in Newport Beach, CA Friday. The coroner has yet to determine the cause of death.

In addition to “Bachelor Party,” she also starred in 1984 French cult classic “The Perils of Gwendoline” and 2014’s “After Midnight.”

She started out on the game show “To Tell the Truth” in 1976 and eventually migrated into movies, achieving moderate success.

The beauty was also featured in a few classic music videos, notably Whitesnake’s “Is This Love,” and “Here I Go Again.”

She later married lead singer David Coverdale 1989, but the marriage only lasted two years. She then wed baseball star Chuck Finley — with whom she had 2 daughters. They split following Finley’s claims that his wife repeatedly kicked him during a domestic dispute.
