According to TMZ, Brittany Murphy has died today. http://www.tmz.com/2009/12/20/brittany-murphy-dies-cardiac-arrest/ Ofcourse it's not official yet, but they've been right before. RIP, if this turns out to be true. What a shame.
That is just awful and horrible. I loved her in Clueless. The media blitz is going to be constantly all over this and it's just so annoying and unfortunate. May she rest in peace.
Man, she MUST have overdosed or something. Healthy rich 32 year olds hearts don't just stop. It's a shame either way, but celebrities need to learn to stay off the drugs.
Can we wait until the autopsy report before accusing her of overdosing? Dave Williams and Darryl Kile are two notable people I can think of who died at a young age due to heart failure not caused by any drugs. And frankly, it scares the shit out of me that a healthy person with no past history of heart problems can drop dead like that.
I'm with Todd on that one. Dave Williams is a great example too And she didn't seem like the type to do drugs that may be just me but still
It scares me too. She was only 9 years older than me. Starting tomorrow I'm exercising on a regular basis and I'm going to try to eat healthier. My brother is 30. If someone two years older than him can die of heart failure, maybe I need to take good care of myself. And I agree with Todd; let's stop with the disrespectful speculation people. There's reports she had an EXTREME flu or at least flu-like symptoms before she died. She could've had a severe flu (dare I say the first celebrity Swine Flu death?) and drugs might have little to do with it.
If one of the best pitchers in the major leagues, who is likely the epitome of healthy, can suddenly die like that, then sadly I don't think it has much to do with how much you exercise or what you eat.
Despite the fact that she's had drug problems before, and an eating disorder, I don't necessarily think it's fair to blame either one at the moment. It's extremely sad that she died, especially given her age, and I agree with Derek and Todd. RIP.
