Pop star Chris Trousdale, a former member of the boy band Dream Street, has reportedly died of complications from coronavirus.
He was 34.
Trousdale died in a Burbank, Calif., hospital on Tuesday, TMZ reported, citing a member of the singer's family.
Born in 1985, Trousdale got his start as a stage actor, first touring as an 8-year-old on a production of "Les Miserables" that also featured actress Ashley Tisdale.
Trousdale then joined the Broadway version of the show in New York City, appearing in that production with actress Lea Michele.
He was recruited by a pair of music producers to be in Dream Street, a pop group consisting of five preteens and teenagers, which launched in 1999.
The boy band members _ which also included Jesse McCartney, Matt Ballinger, Frankie Galasso and Greg Raposo _ performed together until 2002, with their biggest hit, "It Happens Every Time," releasing in 2001.
Other songs released by Dream Street include "Gotta Get the Girl," "I Say Yeah" and "Sugar Rush."
Trousdale enjoyed a successful solo career following his tenure with Dream Street, notably releasing a version of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" with the girl group Play.
He also made several acting appearances, including on series such as "Days of Our Lives" and Disney Channel's "Shake It Up."
