Brittany Murphy dead at 32

[Geezer]

Its been reported that Murphy died this morning of a heart attack. She was 32. This is completely shocking. First Chris Henry, now Murphy. Makes me wonder who will be the third. RIP Brittany.

shocking. RIP.

Yeah, but this came from TMZ. Just how reliable are they?

None of the major outlets seem to be reporting it yet but it looks like it's true. Another case of drugs taking someone way too soon.

Heart attack at 32? Sounds suspicious.

Also, script writer Dan O Bannon (Dark Star, Alien, Total Recall) died last week.

I'd read three possibilities into how she died:

1.Drug use
2.Anorexia
3.A childhood heart defect

I'd figure that it was drug use since it was rumored around Hollywood that she was a cocaine addict in her last few years and that she couldn't get work due to the addiction. But who knows?

Also, script writer Dan O Bannon (Dark Star, Alien, Total Recall) died last week.

I watched Total Recall on Saturday in his memory. He also wrote Blue Thunder, Return Of The Living Dead, Screamers and he was at work on the Alien prequel before his death.

I would venture to guess a little bit of #1 and a little bit of #2, but either way pretty sad.

That's kind of crazy. Very young and the just fired Luanne... She's got four things in post production including The Expendables.

Actually, Stallone cut her scenes from The Expendables. However, he'll probably put a few of them back in due to her death and dedicate the film to her.
