Men of the Strip Star Nate Estimada Passes Away
Las Vegas entertainer Nate Estimada, known as “The Midknight Cowboy” on E! Entertainment’s reality TV series Men of the Strip (inspired by the Vegas act) passed away on Wednesday, June 18. Estimada was 25, and the cause of his death is an apparent suicide.
The Las Vegas resident was a member of the new adult-male revue Men of the Strip, which was launched by 98 Degrees founder and lead singer Jeff Timmons. Estimada previously was a performer in Chippendales at the Rio.
Timmons Instagrammed this statement:
I am heartbroken at the passing of my brother Nate Estimada. Nate was a gift to all of us and will be missed not only personally as a friend but also as a member of Men of the Strip.
My love, prayers and thoughts go out to his family, friends and loved ones. He will be missed dearly, and we will keep him in our hearts forever.
Men of the Strip choreographer Glenn Douglas Packard had this to say on his blog site:
From the start of this dream MEN OF THE STRIP, it was all about the guys for me, and to have a perfect diverse sexy set of guys, Nate was the only cast member that I didnt have to create a character name for him, cuz he was already “THE MIDKNIGHT COWBOY” and he had alot of “cowboy business” to spread and teach. We instantly knew he was going to be a big part of this dream.
The day he passed, we lost a big part of the dream, but Nate wanted others to be happy, and the dream of Men of the Strip will continue, it will continue hopefully way pass my lifetime, so we will honor him, we will do a tribute to our fallen brother, because he will always be part of us, and his spirit will be with us in every show we do.
Men of the Strip’s Facebook page posted their tribute to the late Estimada:
Management & cast of Men of the Strip is extremely saddened at the loss of one of our own. Cast member Nate Estimada passed away on Wednesday, June 18th. We are heartbroken at the loss of our brother and friend and send our deepest condolences to his family, loved ones, friends and fans. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all at this time.
May he rest in peace…
