CoCo Lee, a Hong Kong-born pop singer known for her successful international music career and performing the Oscar-nominated song “A Love Before Time” from the 2000 film “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,” died Wednesday after entering a coma following a suicide attempt, according to her family.
Her sisters, Nancy and Carol, announced Lee’s death in an Instagram post detailing the singer’s multi-year struggle with mental health challenges. Lee’s mental state had “deteriorated drastically over the last few months,” the sisters wrote.
