Stevie Ryan, a rising YouTube star famous for her celebrity impersonations, has been found dead by hanging in her Los Angeles home. The 33-year-old died on July 1, according to the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office, which listed her cause of death as suicide. Ryan, whose YouTube popularity and viral parodies landed her a VH1 show called “Stevie TV” in 2012, had previously opened up to her YouTube followers about her struggles with depression, and had co-hosted a podcast on the topic called “Mentally (Ch)ill.” In her final posting on Twitter, written a day before she died, Ryan offered a heartfelt message to her late grandfather. “The man of my dreams will now only be in my dreams,” Ryan wrote. “I'll miss you everyday, forever. I love you my Pa.”
