Award-winning adult entertainer Angelina Please has died at age 24.

According to AVN, the Chicago native and OnlyFans content creator—legal name Francesca Elizabeth—was found dead inside her Las Vegas apartment on Monday, after she had not been heard from in nearly five days. Fellow adult film actress Aspen Brooks, who was also Please’s neighbor, confirmed the tragic news via Twitter.

“I’m at a loss for words. Went to go check up on my friend after she had been missing, only to find out we lost an amazing person. One of my best friends. My neighbor. The person I would gossip with about everything. She was just 24 years old ❤️ RIP baby girl,” Brooks wrote of Angelina, who was transgender.

Authorities have not announced Please’s cause of death, but AVN reports police found signs of violence or foul play inside her apartment.

Please reportedly entered the adult film industry about three years ago, and went on to receive multiple AVN Awards nominations, including 2022’s Trans Performer of the Year. She also amassed a large online following, including more than 28,000 followers on Instagram. 

A GoFundMe page has been created to cover Please’s funeral and associated costs. The campaign was organized by Please’s older sibling Taylon “Lonnie” Montalbano and, as of this publication, 167 donors have raised $18,816 on a $20,000 goal.

“Francesca was loved by so many, so special in a million different ways and showed so much promise,” the page reads. “She would go above and beyond to help the people she loved. Now she and her family are asking for your help. My parents would like to bring her body home to Chicago, where my father has given up his plot to lay my sister next to her grandparents. This is a fee my parents and I never planned for. Please help us with whatever you can. Every cent goes towards my sister and her final place of rest.”

Steven Grooby, the owner of adult content platform Grooby, mourned the loss in a statement to AVN. “It’s just the most awful news to hear. I heard she was missing when her friend, Aspen, posted about it, but hearing that she’d passed is devastating. Angelina was 24 and in the prime of her life, a popular and professional performer. I want to pass on my love and respect to her family and friends. It’s difficult to have the words.”
