Lady Jaye P-Orridge R.I.P.

Dead-Air · 10.13.2007, 12:42 AM

Apparently Genesis P-Orridge's wife and recent musical partner in Psychic TV/PTV3 suddenly died of heart failure in his arms yesterday.

They were just about to start touring for their new album. Here's the Boing Boing article.

You were thinking of his first wife in the original Psychic TV, Paula.

Sad. I saw Psychic TV in Amsterdam a couple of months ago. I was filming for the festival they played on, and only got to shoot about 4 minutes of their show before she walked up to me shouting, "You didn't ask me! You didn't ask me! Switch that camera off now!", which I did. Quite embarrassing actually. Got the whole commotion on video though. She confronted quite a few people throughout the night after that. Even photographers.

R.I.P Lady Jaye.

that's so typical, you spend your whole life looking for the one person you can become identical transgender twins with and they up and die half way through the ops...

sad for the parting of two lovers.

Genesis Breyer P-Orridge and her reactivated Psychic TV aka PTV3 are terribly sad to announce the cancellation of their November North American tour dates. This decision is entirely due to the unexpected passing of band member Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge.

Lady Jaye died suddenly on Tuesday 9th October 2007 at home in Brooklyn, New York from a previously undiagnosed heart condition which is thought to have been connected with her long-term battle with stomach cancer. Lady Jaye collapsed and died in the arms of her heartbroken "other half" Genesis Breyer P-Orridge.

Being overwhelmed by the enormity of their loss, Genesis and the other surviving band members of Psychic TV/PTV3 are not able to properly meet the demands of touring and performance. Obviously, her absence onstage , the conspicuous loss of her unique charisma, music and humour would be an unbearable emotional reality to confront night after night.

The group, who have been touring to promote their first studio album in 12 years, will announce future plans after an appropriate period of mourning.

that sucks.

It's a shame and a shock. I had no idea she was unwell.

I saw Lady Jaye at the ICA Desertshore thing that TG did back in the summer. She and Gen looked very happy together. S/He must be disconsolate.

S/He has my sympathy and condolences
