Julee Cruise, whose gorgeous collaborations with David Lynch elevated projects such as "Blue Velvet" and "Twin Peaks," has died at 65 years old. Her husband, Edward Grinnant, revealed the news on a B-52's Facebook page, as first reported by The Guardian. Cruise was an occasional touring member of the band, acting as Cindy Wilson's stand-in on stretches from 1992 to 1999.
"For those of you who go back I thought you might want to know that I said goodby to my wife, Julee Cruise, today," he wrote. "She left this realm on her own terms. No regrets. She is at peace. Having had such a varied music career she often said that the time she spent as a B filling in for Cindy while she was having a family was the happiest time of her performing life. She will be forever grateful to them. When she first stepped up to the mic with Fred and Kate she said it was like joining the Beatles. She will love them always and never forget their travels together around the world. I played her Roam during her transition. Now she will roam forever. Rest In Peace, my love, and love to you all."
