\"BijouBijou Phillips<\/strong><\/a>\u2018 mom \u2014 a South African model, actress and singer \u2014 died over the weekend in L.A. \u2026 TMZ has learned.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sources close to Bijou tell us Genevi\u00e8ve Waite<\/strong> passed away in her sleep Saturday. We reached to Bijou who tells us, \u201cOur beautiful mother Genevi\u00e8ve Waite Phillips, passed away in her sleep. She was a beautiful soul, and born from another planet. Her ideas, her songs, her voice, and her heart beat to a beautiful African rhythm no one else had and I am so thankful she was able to share it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Genevieve<\/p>\n

Genevi\u00e8ve married John Phillips<\/strong> from The Mamas & The Papas in 1972 \u2026 and they had two children together, Bijou and Tamerlane<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Genevive<\/p>\n

Bijou continues, \u201cShe was a light, a fairy, and a gift of a creature. The lyrics she wrote on her album were timeless and smart. Her mind was poetry and wit, her sense of humor was quick and dry. My father and my mother had a magical, wonderful, heartbreaking life together but they created a masterpiece of music (Romance is on the Rise) and I\u2019m so honored to be their child.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Genevi\u00e8ve\u2019s most notable film performance was in \u201cJoanna\u201d in 1968 \u2026 a drama about an interracial couple in London.<\/p>\n

Bijou says, \u201cMy mother\u2019s role in \u2018Joanna\u2019 was groundbreaking for racial divides. My mother was a gift and I will miss her everyday. In everything I cook, and in everything I sing and in everything I do without her wise guidance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s nice thinking she is with our Dad, dancing around in heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n

Genevi\u00e8ve was 71 years old.<\/p>\n

RIP<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
