Her cousin Ahmad Yassin confirmed the death in a tweet, saying, "Amal's smile and her sense of humor are now gone."
Fans took to Twitter to express their sorrow and send their condolences to Hamadeh's family.
Elissa was the first celebrity to tweet, saying, "I was deeply saddened when I heard about the death of Amal Hamadeh. Even though she was very harsh with her comments about celebrities, when it comes to death we can't but pray for her soul ... may her soul rest in peace."
