Ja'Net DuBois, actress who played Willona Woods on the TV classic 'Good Times' and composed and sang the theme song for 'The Jeffersons,' has died at the age of 74.

DuBois’ song “Movin’ on Up” provided a joyous intro to “The Jeffersons” during the show’s 10-season run.

Police in Glendale, California, said they received a report about DuBois’ death late Monday. She appeared to have died of natural causes and no investigation is ongoing, police Sgt. Dan Stubbs said. No additional details, including her age, were immediately available. DuBois had a prolific career beyond the 1970s hit “Good Times,” winning two Emmy Awards for her voice work on the WB series “The PJs.”

DuBois' Willona was a “true diva back then, fancy dressing, the wigs, doing the thing. ... the real woman woman," said Stanis. “She brought it, didn’t she?”
