:(
I've never heard of her.
Still sad when someone dies so young though. :(
I just found out. I can't believe these young actors and actresses dying today. I loved her in Clueless and that movie where she plays a deranged girl with Michael Douglas.
..wait.. WHAT?
That was unexpected. Actually, I was just watching Sin City the other day, and I wondered what Brittany Murphy had been up to lately. I've always thought she was adorable.
RIP.
She was good in Girl Interrupted and The Deal Girl where she played a dead girl. The second one I just saw a few weeks ago...
She was good in Spun too!
Not as good as Mena Suvari.Quote:

apparently from drugs.Much like what happened to a former coworker of mine.My former coworker was 30 years old and an attractive young woman as well.
Sad.
I had someone else who died of sudden cardiac arrest who was very close to me die.Her death was caused by heart disease brought on by type 1 diabetes. I won't say much about that as I have been criticized on other FF boards/forums for talking about my personal life.
Tragedies happen.
:cry:
Gosh these freakin coke heads. When do they learn?
The grim reaper has been busy this year.
Billions of people alive, I'm sure he's busy all the time.Quote:

Is it confirmed it was a drug overdose? Also, why does it not surprise me that you, Moon, made this thread.
They cant confirm that quite yet, toxicology needs to be done... but the fact that a slim 32 year old woman had heart failure is usually an indication that she was inhaling large amounts of cocaine.
Another person ground beneath the wheels of fame. RIP Brittany, your voice was adorable.
said on Geraldo tonight he doesn't think it was cocaine, according to his sources.
Prescription meds are more likely.
There are also reports Murphy was a diabetic.So she could have died of heart disease.
The diabetic I knew died of sudden cardiac arrest. Type 1 diabetics can die of advanced heart disease brought on by their diabetes.
We'll have to wait and see what the GCMS drug testing shows.
They might want to do a test for poisons and heavy metals.If so, the entire testing could take weeks, maybe months.
Eh, she was an alright actress.
She was only 32 years old when she died... how sad.
It wasn't confirmed as a drug overdose ... but cardiac arrest? C'monnnnnn~ Her husband was like in the hospital for being "incoherent" and yadda yadda unable to stand etc. a little while back. They be snortin' the coka and smokin' the oxy - I bet a million dollars. (edit: And I don't know why it isn't a surprise - should it be :bigsmile:?)Quote:

Not everyone who has a bad heart looks like they have a bad heart. I wouldn't be surprised if some sort of stimulant triggered sudden cardiac arrest, but it could have been a bit of particularly strenuous exercise. She was in the shower, maybe she just came back from a hard run, or finished some other strongly aerobic activity that it is normal to take a shower after finishing.
I was sad when I heard this news. :( I quite enjoyed her movies!
For now it appears to be a natural death: Coroner: Brittany Murphy's Death Appears "Natural" - E! Online
Anyway, it's really a shame. It's always sad when people die at such a young age. :(
I swear I heard about this death more time than other celebrities. Are people this bored? She wasn't even a good actress. I mean, she could be interesting, but meh.
I mean, not that it's not sad and all.
She was in King of the Hill and Girl Interrupted? I don't remember her in those, what were her roles?

While it's sad that she, as a person, died, it always bothers me how big a deal the media makes of a celebrity death. Thousands of perfectly good people die every day and I'm sure most of them deserve as much attention, if not more, then she is receiving.
I honestly feel sorry for her. She was a decent actress who was never taken seriously and has had a pretty underwelming career. I mean look at what she has done recently, starred in a terrible TV movie called Megafault and had her voice in King of the Hill. Not exactly ending her career with a bang is she. Even now that shes dead I don't see much public outcry. I reckon by the new years people will have forgotten about her completely.
At least her death has been recieved honestly by the public. Unlike Heath Ledger, who was branded some kind of acting god after he died only because he was about to appear in the Dark Knight. Sometimes I really do hate the world I have grown up in.
This is the year of celebrity deaths; we've lost so many celebrities this year.
The difference between the headlines "Brittany Murphy dies" and "Man aged 22 dies in car crash" to me is that I know absolutely nothing about the second person. I don't have a face, a voice, a name and most importantly a personality to associate with the second person. Even if Brittany Murphy didn't know me, at least I had a little insight in her life, making me able to sympathize with her or not. This is usually what makes celebrity deaths more tragic (to a larger group of people) than some random person.Quote:

But I suppose these comments will always be around as long as celebrities keep dying.
If you die when there's no one watchingQuote:

What they mean by that is supporting children in Africa with food donations and money.Quote:
