AGT Magician Scott Alexander Dies Of Stroke While Performing On Cruise Ship

SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS. (THECOUNT) — Scott Alexander, a magician who made it to the Quarterfinals on “America’s Got Talent,” season 6, has died after suffering a stroke while performing on the high seas in Saint Kitts and Nevis, according to his wife Jenny.

Saint Kitts and Nevis is a dual-island nation situated between the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.

Jenny Alexander, who sometimes appeared as Scott’s assistant, shared the sad news on social media saying her husband died while performing on a cruise ship:

“We have lost a father, a husband, a son, a brother, a friend, a mentor, and one hell of an entertainer.”

As for what led to his death, Jenny says “Scott suffered a stroke while working on a cruise ship in St Kitts and did not make it home to us,” reports TMZ.

‘AGT’ fans will remember Scott and Jenny from Season 6 of the hit show. He made quite the impression on the judges with his illusions and tricks, before getting eliminated in the Quarterfinals.

After the show, Scott also appeared on Season 2 of “Penn & Teller: Fool Us”.

Scott is survived by his wife and their 3 children. In Jenny’s own words, “We are shattered.”
