September 2nd 2023.
Jimmy Buffett, the iconic singer and songwriter, made a memorable cameo in Jurassic World, and this scene has resurfaced after his death aged 76. The Margaritaville legend was diagnosed with skin cancer before he passed away on Friday night.
The brief but memorable appearance saw Buffett playing an actual Margarita man, clutching two Margaritas as he escaped from a Margaritaville restaurant in a dinosaur-ravaged theme park.
This scene won the hearts of many and quickly became a fan-favorite. One Twitter user wrote: “RIP Jimmy Buffett who had .25 seconds of screen time in Jurassic World and knew exactly how to use it.” Another joked, “The man knew how to stay on-brand!”
Jimmy Buffett had tiny roles in a few other films, including Billionaire Boys Club and The Beach Club, which starred Snoop Dogg and Matthew McConaughey.
Since his death was announced, the internet has been filled with tributes from friends and fans alike. Sir Elton John called him a “treasured entertainer”, and Sir Paul McCartney remembered their friendship in a tribute. McCartney even visited Buffett’s home to sing to him and his family before his death.
The singer and businessman is survived by his wife Jane, daughters Savannah and Sarah, and son Cameron. Buffett’s Instagram announced his death with the message: “Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1 surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs. He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many.”
Jimmy Buffett’s brief scene in Jurassic World may have been short, but it has certainly made an impact on his fans and will be remembered for years to come.
