TMZ Reports Brittany Murphy Went Into Cardiac Arrest, Died This Morning
http://www.zimbio.com/Brittany+Murphy/articles/F4Na4ihuFfX/TMZ+Reports+Brittany+Murphy+Went+Cardiac+Arrest


Celeb/entertainer news doesn't intrigue me at all but sad to hear of someone so young dying.


Wonder if she had healthcare, though....

1. It's TMZ... Take it with a grain of salt.
I wouldn't trust those hacks to report the results of a celebrity golf tournament.

3. TMZ is actually pretty reliable.
They broke Michael Jackson's death before anyone. Doesn't mean they're not slimeballs though.

22. I would put money that it will be like the Heath Ledger thing
with drugs, drugs, and more drugs involved.

Oh, and the Michael Jackson thing, Elvis, DJ AM, River Phoenix...

Doesn't matter if they are prescription; they can still kill you.

5. Last time I saw a photo of her she looked like she weight 90 pounds.
Such a sad thing a loss at that age.

9. She was the 'chubby' girl in Clueless.
She said she was fat back then she was still cute. The most recent movie I can remember her in is Sin City.

14. She also gave an absolutely wretched performance in Sin City
However, her work in 8 Mile was quite good.


RIP, Ms. Murphy.

18. Really? Cause that was genius
Granted, the words were someone elses, but she brought a Houstonian reality to Luann's character

11. I cant imagine her not having healthcare
Edited on Sun Dec-20-09 04:49 PM by JonLP24
I'm sure she could afford it. She's been in a couple movies that grossed well.

Anyways so sad to hear she died so young. I was surprised by the news. :(

12. I'm sure she had healthcare.
She also had a lot of heroin. Or pills. She was on something for awhile she just got fired off a job for being too difficult to work with.

13. Young celebrity deaths are usually the result of far too much access to healthcare... (nt)

17. R.I.P.
I enjoyed her acting style very much. Her voice characterization of Luanne Platter was nothing short of brilliant. Sad.

19. She was wonderful as Gloria in "Happy Feet." Did all her own singing, too.

20. I only saw her in "Clueless" and she was outstanding. I own
that movie and put it in when I want to watch a "feel good." RIP

21. I'm getting old obviously, because
I had no idea who she was.

But I did see 8 Mile and I think she was in that.

So many of these young stars just flame out and die.

23. I just saw the spoof they did of her on SNL a few weeks ago and
was thinking that I hadn't seen her in anything in a while. Wow... very sad. :(
