Cultural icon, author, and poet Maya Angelou has died at aged 86 – it has been announced.
Details below…
Via TMZ:
Maya Angelou — one of America’s most famous poets — died last night in a Winston-Salem, North Carolina hospital while recovering from a mystery sickness.
Angelou was recovering from an “unexpected ailment” that sent her to the hospital. She died with family by her side.
In a Facebook post yesterday, she said doctors had advised her not to travel … forcing her to cancel a planned trip to Houston … where Maya was to be honored Friday with the Beacon of Life Award at Major League Baseball’s Civil Rights Game.
The famed author has received more than 30 honorary degrees from universities around the world.
An icon, a trail-blazer, and now forever immortalised, we salute Maya Angelou for using her life and her literacy to enlighten the masses. May she Rest In Peace.

Yes! Did a project on her life she was everything! Dancer, singer, poet
Rest in perfect peace!
sad to hear R.I.P.
Oh no 🙁 R.I.P.
God bless her. She lived a very dignified and creative life and gave so much to the world. I know for her feelings on civil rights and black accomplishment she was just happy to see a black man become president of the United States.
Nooooo!! I literally was just searching up some of her quotes yesterday. So much wisdom and strength. She is the best. Crazy how people a knowledge you after you’re not here to receive it. RIP Beautiful
R.I.P. luv
“i know why the caged birds sing” is one of my favorite books. Rip
To a true american icon. This is who you should “stan” for!

RIP. An iconic, inspiring figure.
Powerful Woman. RIP
Who the f*** is this old h**?
Disgusting Ariana fans. Get out of here!!
Looooool who is she i dont know her guess she was not relevant like Ariana is
Who is this woman??????? Smh. Please find a life!
God bless you and the person who raised you!
A mess. You stan for a Nickelodeon jailbait Mariah ripoff who won’t even have a career in five years when her 12 year old fanbase moves on.
Looool Mariah is an old fat p** that needs to retire Ariana killed her career and even outsold me i am flopping u just oressed that she is doing better than all ur favs will ever do
B**** I refuse to start s*** with you, not on this post. Just know that Ariana is a local nobody outside of the US and Japan.
Even if you don’t know why she is why would you call someone who just passed away a h**? Get your life together & some respect. Your fave would be embarrassed.
R.I.P.
omg im gonna cry,i am deeply affected by this.i remember her on sesame street in some episodes. life is the most fragile thing.RIP..Allah watch over her soul…I cant explain how dead inside i feel..i love you
We should all be grateful for Maya Angelou. She helped create a literary platform for the ladies we support and critique daily on this blog. What a life she had. What an achievement. R.I.P. Angel.
R.I.P ..<3
Rosie!!!!!! Guess what?
I heard!!! Yesss
Lmao the meltdowns will be so real today hahaha.
Sam needs to hurry up with the post. I can’t wait.
Yes they need to post on it like now shes the first female rapper to hit #1 since Remy ma in 2004.
Nicki remains unbothered.
She also remains #1 hit less.
Don’t try it Ms. Molly! Iggy’s album flopped!!! Nicki’s first two album slays her. Album sales >>>> singles sales
Ok and? Iggy album can always pick up in sales. Its embarrassing that Nickis been on so many songs yet could never hit #1.
She has come close with Super Bass! Let’s see if Fancy can even see Starships numbers. Iggy just ain’t on Nicki’s level. #Sorry but how are u though?
Did this idiot jus say Ariana killed Mariah’s career? God knows I wanna drag this child back to the merry- go- round but not on this post! I won’t stoop to your level! Pathetic scum
Don’t entertain that idiot
It’s clearly seeking attention ..
You’re right!! 🙂
Looool b**** try cowriah sold 65k fiirst week ariana sold double that amount she is fading no one cares about her
I will drag you another time. Not on this post. Please remove your unwanted self from my presence bum!
You do know those are not Mariah’s final numbers right! Also, your an idiot that needs an spanking for mommy or daddy!
Oh no R.I.P to an amazing soul!
R.I.P True Queen.
May she Rest in Peace
R.I.P
What Legendary life she lived! One of the greatest voices of our time! May she rest in peace. I know her legacy will live on and on. Truly an Trailblazer!!
R.I.P such a classy, talented woman.
