Hollywood is mourning the loss of one of TV's most glamorous stars. Loni Anderson, best known as the sharp-witted receptionist Jennifer Marlowe in WKRP in Cincinnati, has died aged 79 after a long illness. She passed away on 3 August in Los Angeles with her family by her side.
With her golden hair, chic wardrobe and quick wit, Anderson redefined the 'blonde bombshell' trope on TV. She insisted her character be portrayed as intelligent and confident – a move that earned her two Emmy nominations and three Golden Globe nods during the show's 1978–1982 run.
