    That's probably genetics, i.e. he was probably born with a slight heart problem. And exercising on a daily basis and eating healthy IS the best way to stay as healthy as you can be.

    And I read that she did overdose with some medicines.
    RIP.

    I found out about this 'cause I saw "RIP Brittany Murphy" was a trending topic on Twitter this morning when I got up. I've spent the whole day thinking about how I found out like that ... ;/

    I've only seen two of Brittany Murphy's movies, "8 Mile" and "Sin City", where she had, like, a secondary role. I really need to see "Almost Famous", apparently.

    Some reports from the toxicolgy have said that the cause of death appears to be "natural"

    Doesn't an eating disorder have alot to do with the condition of a heart? It's sad that she passed on, but I'm not going to get torn up about this, or change my way of life because of Brittany Murphy and her maybe natural death, maybe eating disorder/overdose. it's just a celebrity.

    Celebrities are human beings too Casey. Any premature death is a great shame, regardless of who you are.

    I realize that. The tragedy of this situation isn't lost on me, but I chose to not let it effect me the way others are seemingly letting it. I'm pretty sure someone in my neighborhood died within the last month, and that sucks and I feel for the family, but if they died of lung cancer, it's not going to make me stop smoking.

    People are always going to treat the death of a celebrity like it's the end of humanity (see: Jackson, Michael), when in reality it's not. It happens to everyone. The moment MJ died, a dad, a brother, a son, a husband, etc. likely died.

    one death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic.

    What's sad for me is the fact that celebrities die so publicly. The death itself, and then the faux-apologetic attitude, the finger pointing, the speculation as to cause of death, the nasty comments...

    You can argue that they chose that life, but they didn't choose for society to cling onto other people's lives because their lives aren't pathetic enough, or rather, too pathetic.

    That quote was mentioned in an article on Cracked.com regarding that topic, how people choose to care about certain people and not others ...

    As much as I want to believe TMZ, seeing as they broke that MJ died before ANYBODY ELSE...I still am skeptical. They are still a tabloid as much as they may break true stories; and it's best to wait till the official report comes out. Right now they still do not believe the death was drug related. Let's respect that.
