Fran Drescher

Morty Drescher, Fran Drescher's father, died on March 20 at the age of 94 after a long battle against Parkinson's disease. Given the death of her father, the actor was unable to attend the 44th annual Muse Awards for Vision and Achievement in New York on Wednesday, where she was expected to receive an award on Wednesday. According to Page Six, she expressed her gratitude and regret for her absence through a letter sent to a SAG-AFTRA rep who paid her respect to her late father.

Fran Drescher was one of the parade of stars to attend the 96th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Although The Nanny alum's film career has been fruitful, she served as the national president of the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists on this night. 'I'm honored to be representing SAG-AFTRA as the president after a long and difficult war, and now we come and celebrate this incredible sector and ourselves elously,' she told ABC's Mark S. Allen as she arrived on the red carpet. In a custom black-patterned dress from Ami Paris that hugged her feminine curves, the New York native, 66, stunned in the fashion department, while still showing a hint or two of her figure through sheer design. As she carried a small black leather purse for her essentials, she would also skip black pointed pumps and accessorize with a pair of fashionable dangling earrings.

Fran Drescher came across as she addressed members of her SAG-AFTRA union at the 2024 SAG Awards on Saturday. The 66-year-old union president glowed in a red sequined dress as she commemorated SAG-AFTRA's strike ended in early December last year. At its 30th annual convention, which was held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, the Screen Actors Guild honoured the best actors in film and television following its taxing 118-day strike.
