The 'Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In' star Judy Carne has passed away due to natural causes at the age of 76.

The English actress, who was famous for her phrase "sock it to me", started her acting career on British television by making a debut in 1956 show 'The First Day of Spring', Deadline.com reported.

She also penned an autobiography in 1985 titled 'Laughing on the Outside, Crying on the Inside: The Bittersweet Saga of the Sock-It-To-Me Girl' mentioning her long run of personal difficulties that sidelined her acting career including a struggle with drug addiction.
