Brittany Murphy 1977-2009
I am – Hercules
This one puts real tears on my face. Brittany Murphy, one of my favorite movie stars, passed away Sunday morning of cardiac arrest at age 32.
While still a teenager, she served as Tai, one of the more memorable components of Amy Heckerling’s remarkable “Clueless.”
She then went on to greater fame and success in a variety of big-screen starring roles, notably the sanatorium inmate Elisabeth in the 2001 smash “Don’t Say A Word” and the emerging romantic interest Alex in the 2002 blockbuster "8 Mile."
She was also Shellie in 2005's "Sin City."
She worked constantly, and will be seen among Sylvester Stallone's all-star cast next summer in "The Expendables."
She was an amazing-looking actress who got plenty of work with just her voice, including roles in "Futurama," "Pepper Ann" and "Happy Feet."
I loved that as her big-screen Hollywood stock began to rise at the start of this decade she never abandoned her supporting role as Luanne Platter in the brilliant Mike Judge/Greg Daniels animated collaboration “King of the Hill.” She was wonderful in that too.
Her singing scored her (in collaboration with DJ Paul Oakenfold) the 2006 dance-club hit "Faster Kill Pussycat."
Her other movie credits included "Drive," "Bongwater," "Drop Dead Gorgeous," "Girl, Interrupted," "Sidewalks of New York," "Summer Catch," "Riding in Cars With Boys," "Spun," "Just Married," "Uptown Girls," "The Groomsman," and "Love and Other Disasters."

sorry piece o ass
-
boo ya
-
Must be a drug OD, right? Maybe it was something congenital, but the way she had completely dropped off the scene over the past 4 years or so, as well as her shady hubby.......smells fishy.
-
She was so waifish
Makes it sadder somehow
My heart goes out to her mother, who found her
And to the rest of her family -
I sort of loved Brittany since I saw her in Clueless - and her work as Luanne was so, so good. Such a shame, you will be missed Brit.
-
This has been a bad couple of years in Hollywood. I guess I'll just give up on my dreams of stardom.
-
She's younger than I am. This isn't right. A shame, may she rest in peace.
-
When she got to heaven she asked god what the meaning of life was he replied 'Ill never tell'
-
To the Family.
-
She wasn't much of a actress.
-
a loooong time ago!She was burnt out in Hollywood before she was 25!Honestly, I loved the "fat" Britney alot more!
-
She was recently booted off set for some bad behaviour...I hope this isn't another Heath Leadger type incident.
Good entertainers dying young, it's very sad... -
In Hollywood, the people who should die never do and the people who do die never should've. R.I.P.
-
of her. yikes. I hate to say and really hate to say but. in that photo she looked like....gulp Tori spelling. sort off.... what is saddening is that When she made Clueless and that awful ashton kutcher film. she was beautiful.
-
Hadn't really seen her in anything since Sin City, but just damn...
-
Drug overdose will do that to you
-
and fuck the drug circuit in Hollywood >:I

Pretty certain a drug overdose caused the cardiac arrest...
by shabbyblue
I remember some recent appearance a year or two ago on Late Night with Craig Ferguson where she was acting really trippy and quite obviously on something. Then again, there's also the anorexia possibility.
-
RIP.
-
Seriously now...
-
Man, the Oscar death list next year is gonna go on for hours.
-
...if it ever gets made. Which seems more and more unlikely with each passing year. :(
-
No one said it's a drug overdose yet. My cousin died this time last year from a heart attack. Same age as her and he was D&D free.
-
there is only one person that I would send them too for advice and that the irish actress Finnoula Flanaghan. people should listen to what she has to say about making it hollywood.
-
She was adorable in clueless, and was one of the best parts of my favorite kung fu b-movie, "Drive" with Mark Dacascos. In that movie she had black hair and looked extra yummy...plus her character was quirky, bubbly, full of life, and super sexy. That is how I will choose to remember her. <3 R.I.P.
-
I want to have sex with her corpse while it is still warm. If you let it get cold it's just disgusting.
-
Yeah, right.
-
I had quite a crush on her around the 8 Mile days. I love nutty, thin-ankled chicks who can sing and dance.

Creepy!! I just watched her in "The Dead Girl"...
by richard_gere_raped_my_gerbil
..and now SHE's... oh, you know.R.I.P
-
But seriously. What a shame.
-
is an unfunny virgin.
-
I loved her as the chicken bone girl in "Girl Interrupted".
-
I had to get that business out of the way. RIP Britt.
-
Sorry, Abe.
-
they always come in threes.
-
Yes, it does. Even if they're dead!
-
...if she's rolling with the hommies up in heaven?
-
If you count Roy Disney and Dan O'Bannon as the first two.
-
favorite way to remember her by. Damn, this year has been brutal in regards to all the Hollywierd passings. In less than a week, we loss Britany, Roy Disney, Dan O'Bannon, Alaina Reed (from 227) and Jennifer Jones.
-
Brittany Murphy, who I'm sure overdosed on something, gets an obit, but not Roy Disney?? What the hell is wrong with this site?
-
I though Lauchs was a Natalie Portmanteau of "laughs" and "locksbrokenleg"
-
Cryogenics + Disney = Immortal.
-
You're not much of a person.
-
Holy fuck, I'm dying over here. Thank you.
-
Cold is disgusting. Warm that shit up.
-
Guess it wasn't as long ago as I thought. Just April 2009. Look at how anorexic she is, and acting kinda trippy from possible drug use. Also everyone wondered what was up with her weird fake british accent: http://www.youtube. com/watch?v= r1NgJF7OImM
-
I'm glad Hell has no internet connection.
-
We're living in a world of celebrity and seem to be "shocked" when someone like this passes. I grieve for her family and those who loved her but she has been a train wreck since she lost all those pounds years ago. Obviously, something was very wrong and even if she didn't die of drugs or an eating disorder now, it most certainly took a toll on her heart years ago. You entertained me BM and you will be missed...kinda makes The Dead Girl even creepier and more melancholy - if that's possible.
-
BUT,...Ahhh fuck it...I'll be nice and leave it at that.
-
Haha.
-
50+ years of contributions to the entertainment industry, the arts, and animation should get your more than a mention in someone else obit.
-
"Whenever a celebrity dies we should feel sorry? How about the soldiers who die everyday in Iraq? Or all the children who starve to death in Africa? Or the dandruff that gets so frequently tossed away by Head 'n' Shoulders?"
-
I just rented this atrocious straight to dvd flick she did called Deadline, and I got the vibe from seeing her in it that she had some definite problems going on. I hope it wasn't drugs, but whatever it was this is very sad. She really made some movies fun all on her own(Just Married esp) but on talk shows and stuff I always found her giggle fits just infectious as hell. r.i.p B
-
His actions will be called into question. Either for enabling her drug use or for flat out murdering her. Mark my words. Oh and she was super crazy hot.
-
Roy's snub is a joke!! Has Harry ever expressed any personal issues with Disney? Did he try to kiss ass, as he usually does, and Disney wouldn't budge??
-
I'm not familiar with him, so why are people saying he's "shady"?
-
Her date to the high school prom was Jonathan (SeaQuest) Brandis. That's like finding out James Dean dated Marilyn Monroe (to a much, much lesser extent acting quality-wise, I mean)
-
Please, she was in a few movies. Yeah, it's sad she died, but really people.
-
Hes been accused of fraud on multiple continents, tells strange lies about dead family members, killing people, google it He did land a pretty hot chick for being a fat shlubby nobody though so whos to judge?
-
It's not breaking news by any means. I can personally confirm she's been dead for months and they've just been dragging her along using wire like a puppet. It's cool though, that's how they keep Patrick Stewart around too, but nobody cares enough to spoil the secret.
-
Way to young to go.
-
An actual legend. But let's read about the dead one with boobs instead.
-
Hadn't really followed her career in a while so didn't know about her supposed weight problems.
Shame all the same though. Decent actress who did a few memorable roles (8 Mile, Sin City, Spun). RIP. -
I raise my fist every morning after showering and scream "Damn you Head n' Shoulders! Damn you to Hell!"

WTF IS THIS SHIT?!? DEAD AT 32!?! GRIM REAPER GETTING OVER-TIME
by tehcreepythinman
Fucker must be getting as much work done as he can given the current economic situation. Hey, how about you take some of the worthless scum like Bay, Ratner, McG, Paris Hilton, Perez Hilton, the Kardashian whores and Lindsay Lohan!
-
Your'e right...trust me, I unfortunately understand the losing of loved ones and especially soldiers but this is an entertainment site and we're focusing on yet another awful celebrity waste. I think about the war and "real" people dying all the time - depressing I know but so is life - this is what it is...another brief candle who should have died hereafter. At least we can agree she signified something.
-
If it was a drug overdose they would have said she od. It would be incredibly distasteful to spin something like an od. Heart attacks at 32 do happen, and this is a reminder life is short and any of us can go at any time. Hold your loved ones while you can this holiday season and say the things that need to be said.
-
I hope Brittany Murphy finds the peace in heaven she was denied on earth..god bless her & her family
-
as someone said above, and as I've been pounding the drum for years. BUT DON'T YOU TALK SHIT ABOUT PATRICK STEWART METROID_FETISH!
-
Just look at that clip of her from back in April. Though I personally think it was a combination of both, and the truth will come out soon enough when they do an autopsy.

A proper obit for a true legend -- Roy Edward Disney, the nephew of Walt Disney, died Wednesday after a yearlong battle with stomach cancer, according to a Walt Disney Co. spokesman.
Disney "played a key role in the revitalization of the Walt Disney Co. and Disney's animation legacy," the company said.
He died in a Newport Beach, California, hospital at the age of 79.
His father -- Roy O. Disney -- co-founded the Disney entertainment business with Walt Disney in 1923.
Roy E. Disney's 56-year association with the company culminated in 2003 when he stepped down as vice chairman of Disney's board and chairman of the Disney Studio's Animation Department. He kept the title director emeritus and consultant in recent years, the company said.
"As head of Disney Animation, Disney helped to guide the studio to a new golden age of animation with an unprecedented string of artistic and box office successes that included 'The Little Mermaid,' 'Beauty and the Beast,' 'Aladdin' and 'The Lion King,' " the company said.
A private funeral service and cremation are planned, the company said. His ashes will be scattered at sea, it said.
He was born in in Los Angeles seven years after his father and uncle began building the Disney empire.
His entertainment career began in 1952 -- after he attended Harvard University and Pomona College -- with a job as an assistant film editor on the "Dragnet" TV series.
He joined the family business a year later as an assistant film editor at the Walt Disney Studios.
He received two Oscar nominations. One was as a writer and production associate on the 1959 short subject film "Mysteries of the Deep," and the second was for his work in 2003 as executive producer of "Destino," a film based on storyboards and original art by the iconic artist Salvador Dali.
Disney founded Shamrock Holdings, an investment company owned by the Disney family, in 1978.
He also was an avid competitive sailor, the company said. He held several elapsed-time records for offshore races in the Pacific Ocean, including multiple wins in the 2,225-mile Transpac race between Hawaii and California, it said. -
Just a guess here, but being anorexic, tooting up some cocaine, and trying to sober up with a shower could have easily ended with a heart attack. I don't really care what caused it, i always thought she was cute. I'm gonna miss not seeing her in films.
-
Dec 20, 2009 4:17:24 PM CST
She was so cute and normal in CLUELESS. This size 0 shit...

Which has become a habit for me on a nightly basis with it becoming part of Adult Swim's late night lineup.

Dead at 32 is just messed up.
-
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Gene Barry, who played the well-dressed man of action in the television series "Bat Masterson," "Burke's Law" and "The Name of the Game," has died at age 90 of unknown causes, his son said Thursday.
Fredric James Barry said the actor died Wednesday at a rest home in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Woodland Hills.
Gene Barry essentially played the same character in all three series, which spanned the 1950s to the 1970s. Always fashionably dressed, the tall, handsome actor with the commanding voice dominated his scenes as he bested the bad guys in each show.
In the first of the three, the Western "Bat Masterson," he was a frontier dandy who rarely resorted to gunplay, choosing instead to beat his rivals senseless with a gold-handled cane.
Before he landed the role in 1958, Barry's movie career appeared to be on the rise, and he was at first reluctant to play Bat Masterson. He had starred in the science-fiction classic "War of the Worlds" in 1953 and opposite Clark Gable in "Soldier of Fortune" in 1955.
He said he was won over to TV when he learned that lawman Masterson had worn a derby and carried a gold-handled cane in real life.
"I went over to the wardrobe department, picked out a brocaded vest, looked in the mirror, and there was this elegant gentleman," he recalled in 1999. "I said, 'Hey, that's Bat! That's me!'"
After two decades as a TV star, Barry found himself typecast as a television actor and never returned to prominence in films. Instead, he stayed active with stage appearances and dozens of TV guest appearances.
He sang in such musicals as "Kismet" and "Destry Rides Again," and created the Broadway role of Georges, the gay night club owner in Jerry Herman's hit musical "La Cage aux Folles." That role brought him a Tony nomination in 1984.
Barry appeared in the last season of Eve Arden's hit sitcom "Our Miss Brooks"--as a P.E. teacher who pines for Miss Brooks--before landing "Bat Masterson" in 1958.
After the show ended its run on NBC in 1961, Barry moved to ABC to star as an LA detective in "Burke's Law," which lasted until 1966. The show was revived on CBS nearly 30 years later with Barry again in the lead but lasted only one season.
"The Name of the Game" (1968-1972) offered an innovation: three suave actors--Barry, Robert Stack and Anthony Franciosa--alternating weekly in their own self-contained adventures. The only connective element: All were part of an investigative magazine of which Barry was the flamboyant owner.
When the series folded, Barry filmed a syndicated show, "The Adventurer," in England.
He was born Eugene Klass in New York City in 1919, and he met his wife, Betty Claire Kalb, when both were performing in the city. They were married 58 years, until her death in 2003.
Barry is survived by his three children, Michael, Fredric and Elizabeth, as well as three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. -
just.....don`t.
-
Yes, their deaths are sad, but they lived full lives and died at an old age. It's not nearly as tragic and "newsworthy" as talking about the death of a young actress. That's just the way it is and how it will always be among news media/gossip sites.
-
I have no problem with the mainstream media not talking about Roy and Gene, but damn, isn't this site supposed to be about film geeks and not mainstream media?
-
She was memorable in every movie role and often was the best thing in them. My condolences to her family.
-
I do feel sad for her family. A heart attack at the age of 32? It was no doubt either related to an eating disorder or an overdose. Murphy lost consciousness while on the set of some several movies and couldn't function on Something Wicked. TMZ is saying the LAPD is starting an investigation. http://www.thewrap.com/article/brittany-murphy-collapses-set-12032
-
Can't believe that she's dead. Was good in sin city but she was unbelievably sexy and crazy in Drive. I concur that she would have been perfect for Harley Quinn.
-
maybe she's starring in a good ROTLD sequel written and directed by Dan and produced by Roy (sick of the mouse house hands tying bullshit). I lift my glass and drink to the thought and those of us who can enjoy this holiday season. RIP to all of 2009's casualities.
-
Or I'll cut your little pecker off! Take it easy Baby - R.I.P.-
-
Dec 20, 2009 4:33:36 PM CST
Just last week I told some good friends that I missed her.
by stereotypical evil archer
Why does this shit have to happen?
-
Seriously, dying of a heart attack at THIRTY-TWO?! There's something wrong when a seemingly together young actress like Brittany Murphy dies, and a used-up coke whore like Lindsay Lohan is still alive.
-
Some of you are pretty cold and inconsiderate of the people that actually enjoyed her work with the things you are saying.
But I guess you don't have to be accountable because it's all anonymous, right?
And I guess it's cool to go out of your way to click on this link, login, and talk shit about someone just because they are famous and dead?
Wow. -
She WOULD have been a great Harley Quinn, too. Maybe she can work on that with Heath in the great studio backlot in the sky...
-
He was only a producer and a huge force behind an important film and entertainment company. He was not an actor or director. Don't worry if Katzenberg, Geffen or Lorne Michael's kicked, Harry wouldn't mention them either.
-
Yeah man, she would have been perfect for the role. Her voice is damn well near identical to the cartoon version!
-
I hope you and your whole family get ass cancer...in fact I am praying for it.
-
in fact I think its a good age to die. Especially for an actress.
-
With the explosion of mass media in the late 70s, more tv and movie actors and singers achieved fame than before. Those people are now in late 50s, and when they begin to die off, it'll seem like an unusual year, but percentage-wise, nothing unusual.
-
--I liked the underated, underseen, subversive, giallo/slasher flick, "Cherry Falls" that she stared in. I've always had a crush on her, and I'm really sorry this happened. This sucks.
-
RIP, Ms. Murphy.
-
Not to mention great singing voice. She will be missed. There are large shoes to fill for the Happy Feet sequel.
-
On the DVD for Don't Say a Word, there is her audition footage for that role. It really is incredible, especially given that Michael Douglas was reading his part so dead pan. I always thought she was very underrated.

Britney Murphy would have made a LOUSY Harley Quinn!
by hollywoodhellraiser
WTF is wrong with you people?!?!I'm sorry thats she dead but have you geeks lost your fucking minds???Harley Quinn is a socipath, but also she a hot piece of ass!Britney Murphy with all due respect is ugly! I know Hollywood make things look gorgeous(or HOT) to some of you lonely geeks but buy some glasses and stop the ass-kissing!
-
Remember that kinda schlubby con man that Anne Hathaway got mixed up with a few years back? Yeah, Mourphy's hubby was like a way more dangerous, inister version of that dude. She never made another acting appearance of any consequence upon getting with that guy. I remember reading at the time the her family tried to intervene, as they all hated him and tried to warn her that he would be the death of her. Turns out they were right.
-
young lady was hella funny in Clueless..will always remeber her for that role. R.I.P 32 is waaay to fuckin young to die
-
She was great and will be missed.
-
She was pretty hot until the anorexia.
-
You must be queer, fella.
-
There are some real scummy types out there. Let's see how quick you are with the jokes when it's your sister, your girlfriend. RIP Brittany Murphy, for what it's worth.
-
I just last week found out that she was the voice of Luanne, what a brilliant character. She was FABULOUS in Sin City, her line "You're a DAMN fool" is so brilliantly oldschool. She's also in a great little movie called "Bongwater" trust me its more intelligent than the title would suggest, stars Luke Wilson, Andy Dick, Jeremy Sisto, and Jack Black is in it for a little while.
Anyway, what's Paris up to, right? -
it is always sad to see someone so young leave us before their time. My heart goes out to her mother. Finding your child dead has got to be the hardest things a parent could ever go though. For everyone making jokes I hope your grave is one day pissed upon.
-
That's what I'll remember her most for. 32 is insanely young, especially for a heart attack. I have to imagine there was something sinister going on here, which is a goddamn shame.
-
I forgot about her in 'Bongwater.' I'm officially depressed.
-
Could you imagine a waif running around in a court jester outfit?
-
Come on! Show the love!
-
What a bunch of real Assholes here, most of you have have no idea how to be a human being!
-
and i hope it wasnt related to drug use

the Oscar death list next year is gonna go on for hours
by lavatory love machine
and Keith Richards is still alive
-
I hate the holidays. Shit like this always happens.
She was pleasant to watch. Exuberant presence, and inescapably beautiful. -
People obviously still have not learned that.

Dec 20, 2009 5:02:21 PM CST
I resent the fact that some assholes who never posted...
by hollywoodhellraiser
come on here for one specific thread and try to call people assholes for expression their opinions!This thread has been pretty respectful but just because we're not falling all over ourselves enough due to Ms. Murphy death we're label as sick!Guess what SlamHound, try posting regularly and not on one occasion before you think you know some of us!Dipshit!
-
yes, some very big names died during the past couple of weeks, however most were in their late 80s and early 90s while their deaths are sad (especially those of barry and disney) they lived long and fruiful lives and it isnt as much of a shock as when a 32 year old actor, who seems to have so much going for her, dies and yes, abe vigoda still laughs at you all
-
The Grim Reaper came for him years ago. Keith out drank, out smoked and out played him.
-
Fuck you Asshole
-
I am older then by a week.
-
She's younger than me and she's dead , fuck kinda sad wake up call , ;(
-
Most of Hollywood is on drugs...believe it...I have friends who know some big actors and they're all hooked on drugs...the names would shock you.
-
jee, I wonder why?
-
So you have to be young and die tragically to get an obit around here? Is that what I am hearing?
-
Yeah dude you post on here erryday! We're all like brothers...
Fuckin' putz. -
in watching her in different roles, her weight did seem to fluctuate greatly...even if the role didnt call for it if this is the case, then that couldve caused the heart attack....it is what killed karen carpenter
-
To Aint it cool news if your young and die tragically.
-
So many amazing people gone. My little sister died from cystic fibrosis earlier this year. I feel for her family. For all the families. Can't imagine what it would be like to have to deal with grief AND the media. Yugh....
-
showed that she was self-aware of and able to poke fun at her blondeness, and was able to rise above the many, many young hollywood starlets who don't get the joke. "king" reruns are awesome late nite viewings and it will be sad to see them now. RIP
-
Dont even pretend that it isnt,still no great loss to the entertainment industry here,dont start with "ive always been a huge fan" bullshit people,you are not fooling anyone.
-
...is a HELLUVA drug...just sayin'.
-
Hard to believe.
-
I wonder why. Because it will come out that she OD'd on coke and that she got the drugs from him? The guy was such an ugly, fat slob, no way in hell he could snag a hot piece of ass like her unless it was a co-dependent drug relationship.
-
Here are the reasons a sane person would be sad about her demise:
-
Unfortunately most of you aren't funny, so it just comes across as pathetic/disturbing.
-
First off go eat a dick. Second go fuck yourself. Like someone said above people die everyday, soliders etc.. so excuse me if I don't care that some sub par actress who never could carry a movie died. Ill save my tears for when someone who masde a diff in the world of film making dies like spielberg, coppula, deniro, pacino etc. its no big loss to the world. She hasn't done shit in years anyway. Like tim robbins said in spy who shagged me 'would you miss? Would you miss it?' Well 'would you miss her? Would you miss her?' But I have a feeling somewhere down there is looking up at all of us smiling.also I hate the term rest in peace. Mother fucker isn't resting. She's dead. What does she need rest for?? She is not a sleep. There is no life in the body. Should be rot in peace. That I understand
-
he needs a grilling

Nah, I can't spank it to dead girls. Not even dead porn stars like Savanna from Vivid and Haley Paige.
-
You guys aren't being funny and if you are too desensitized to understand that then I feel sorry for those who must interact with you regularly.
-
But I also did not hate her and knew who she was and liked her in many of the movies she was in. She does not have to be my favorite actress to make this more of the tragedy it already is. Those that think it is okay to start pissing on her memory the day she dies are no more in the right because they were not a fan.
-
That's AICN for you. Home of the biggest scumbag, virgins on this side of... AVATAR. *masturbates*
-
Your sister is dead, lol.
-
I'm 300 pounds, and people tell me I should watch my weight or my heart attack me. But you what? Brittany Murphy's death proves when it's your time to go, you go. I'm sure she worked out and watch what she ate, but look where it got her? Just enjoy life and pass me the potatoes!!!
-
So kooky. She was really good in that. Liked her in Sin City too. Pity, but Hollywood is a waster of souls. -
Thanks for that.
-
Dec 20, 2009 5:22:44 PM CST
her hubby only wrote "Two Days, Nine Lives", seen it?
by lavatory love machine
it's from the year 2000
-
I said "holy shit" out loud when I just read the headline here ... 32 is freaking young. I mean people die all the time but that is extremely young thus the shock. I thought she was pretty hot in a skanky kind of way ... would never be a A-list actress but always great in her own domain. I think SPUN was the last thing I saw her in iirc.
-
I'm glad no one gives a fuck about what you think. Semen Stains... well your fucking display name is SEMEN STAINS so I'm not even gonna bother. Did any of you stop and think "Maybe my life sucks because I make fun of dead people?" Try it. You may breach a moment of clarity in your flash gordon filled "brain."
-
for my boner. Ive been wanting to bang her since she got real skinny and crazy. Judging by her choice of husband it was within the realm of possibility. Now Ill never know...
-
Maybe the next two will be Shia LeSuck and Tiger Woods.
-
MadTV used to lampoon her as one of the Powerslut Girls. This will probably be drugs + anorexia.
-
Murphy's husband sounds shady... for instance....
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0598168/board/nest/76829794 -
shady..
-
They will either one day grow up and gain human feelings, or not and get stabbed in a bar fight. What evs.
-
I think I'll rub one out...in her honour of course. FAP FAP FAP
-
but it will eventually be known. For now, it's just a shame.

-
Merely stated that this group wank of "oh we have lost such a talent" is complete bullshit,Its a shame when anyone dies but this is nooooooo great tragedy by any stretch,you need to get over yourself.
-
anorexia. she was big in clueless and then thin ever after. heard she died of heart failure. to me that indicates years of anorexia or diet pills/cocaine/etc.
damn shame. -
I'll miss her, most of all for King of the Hill, but she has one of the best lines in Drop Dead Gorgeous (very underrated movie that holds up still) when she yells (in a voice that seems to large for her frail frame)after her father criticizes her for quitting the pageant and compares her to her brother...she tells him his son is gay.. then repeats it... "GAAAAY!!!!" It's her delivery of that moment that for some reason makes me almost tear up with laughter every time I see it. It's all that pent up frustration..finally released. It's so cliche' and I typically don't comment on these types of posts/articles. But damn, I'm really going to miss her.
-
You just told people who felt bad to fuck themselves. I'm suppose to shake my head and say "You're right, Jizz Stains, these mourners need to shut the fuck up."
-
I never really like to swear, but fuck you guys. I know we like to imagine what its like to be famous or whatever and I am sure it's a lot easier physically then what I do for a living. But you know what, who cares how she died? She was a person first, an actress second. I for one mourn the loss of a human being, and one with obvious talent. If she overdosed, that's her personal business. I am just sad that another brilliant light has been extinguished far too early.
"If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a ''wandering to find home,'' why should we not look forward to the arrival?" ~ C.S. Lewis -
they told me to stfu when they caught me fucking your dead grandmother's skull. She was in no means a great loss, but she gave great skull fuck.
-
it's too bad drugs and a shitty man took her life long before the heart attack did.
-
Heart disease runs in his family, just one of those things I guess. Maybe we'll hear more about this I dunno, they probably didn't want a big controversy like Heath's passing with the accidental drug-overdose.
-
The star of a true sci-fi classic, "The War of the Worlds", Gene Barry passes away and gets shit all of a mention here. And this girl does? This site realy is aimed for teenagers isn't it?
-
A life cut so short. She was talented. Very cute too.
-
fuck sake,are you really mourning the death of an actress who did fuck all in her short career? come on.Leave the house once in a while maybe you will make some lasting relationships with actual human beings who dont just exist on film.Although thats highly unlikely.Who would wanna have any kind of relationship with someone who gets emotional over something so trivial...
-
She was funny, talented. Cute as hell. Period. Go find yourself a manly woman, close your eyes and pretend she's your gym coach from high school.
And while diet pills and other kinds of drug abuse as well as eating disorders can lead to heart problems, women in their 30s that lead healthy lifestyles DO die of heart failure. It's not rare, just not very common. There's a solid chance she didn't end up as another hollywood cliche and since we don't really know... WE DO NOT KNOW! -
Life sucks and people go early. Here's another cautionary tale about becoming a druggie. At least the wankery to Avatar has been put on hold for a few minutes.
-
I wouldn't mourn you. I doubt anyone would. There may even be a party. I would attend. With people. No, no, you're right. We can't have an opinion about an actress AND live lives with human relationships. It's all or nothing. So is your Brittany Murphy action figure boxed and mint like mine, or have you used it on your prostate like Carl's hat?
-
Who'd want to be in a relationship with someone who calls themselves Semen Stains and mocks the dead. When your idol dies(now make a joke about how Brittany Muphy was my idol), I hope he/she gets hit by a fucking truck and his/her corpse flies into a landfill. Trivial enough for you?
-
She either had a fucked up heart condition and never did any check ups in her life (which film insurance companies DEMAND), or she OD on some shit - which I believe should be the cause of her cardiac arrest.
-
So life is trivial? We'll all be sure to applause when you do your one and only useful performance in life: croak, you piece of shit.
-
as Topanga's annoying friend Trini. Oh yeah, and 8 Mile in that random sex scene and the way she gave the middle finger at the end. "I'llll never tellll."
-
Q: What hides under a bridge and sleeps with his sister's dirty panties under his pillow?
A: Ask the midget that just shit on the glass table you're under, Semen Stains. -
She really looked terrible though in the last few months. Kind of reminds me of the same thing that happened to Karen Carpenter. All that weight loss/anorexia(sp) finally caught up to her. Her body probably just gave out. RIP
-
haha awesome
-
she had a great screen presence. What a shame.
-
Meaning she stopped breathing, not the death of a part of the heart. (there's a big difference) Same thing that killed MJ. And I bet that, unfortunately, like MJ, drugs were involved here, too. (it's the leading cause of cardiac arrest) Still, very tragic. RIP Ms. Murphy.
-
Certainly not heart disease. To give "heart attack" as a cause of death is worthless.
-
FTR i typed as you posted obviously

after his doctor pumped him with drugs.

They found her stomach literally filled with jizz! CoD was determined to be an overdose of shittyness and butterface syndrome. Ironnically, it was the jizz that was keeping her alive. - AP
-
First noticed her in Don't Say A Word, liked her in Girl Interrupted, king of the hill, and others. I saw a tweet from Ashley Massaro saying "Brittany Murphy? 32. Sad." I thought Ashley was trying to make fun of her age (which makes no sense since they're only a few years apart), it wasn't til I came here and saw her name I knew what her tweet meant. God rest your soul, Brit. You were born a week later than me (not same year though) and I always have a soft spot for my fellow November babies. Man just when we thought 2009 was over with as far as celebrities passing, this happens. At least now she's singing and doing her puppet show for God.
-
Fuck sake no talking to you people,where have a i mocked her in any post i have made? i dont have a bad thing to say against the woman,just this pathetic outpouring of nonsense thats being spouted here.Its insincere bullshit people,you know it and everyone else knows it.But hey carry on,Get all offended by the jokes about fucking her dead corpse and have flame wars or outdo each other by trying to to write about just how much you loved and and how amazing an actress she was and how this role or that role changed my life,im off to see Avatar.Bye Bye children.
-
It does nothing but bring out the morons who take a break from watching torture porn long enough to spew some shit on here trying there best to goad some one to calling them out by name. It's hysterical. You fifteen and sixteen year old virgins posting about fucking dead bodies might get some pussy if you'd just give up the Columbine act for five seconds,take off your trench coats,cut your half inch pony tails,shave off your pubestache's and move on with your lives. This isn't a national tragedy but it is sad to alot of the adults who visit the site. You can all go back to Pranknet,molesting your underage cousins or what ever you fucking minions are doing these days. Shows over.

I intend to pursue this line of investigation and bring you a full AICN report.

you motherfuckers are going to judge someone on that? I'm sure the AICN community are all upstanding citizens.
-
AND newsworthy, in my opinion.
-
She was addicted to heroine, sex with strangers, fish lips and baggy eyes. She also dated the biggest Douche Bag on the planet. Kutcher. Her death is tragic, but she wasn't an angel. See you in Hell Brittney. See you in Hell!
-
The obit should really read "Brittany Murphy 1977-2009. She was a mediocre actress who never did much with her career. She never lived up to Mr. Semen Stains expectations." Fuckin' putz, cower off to fucking Avatar.
-
The force is strong with this one.
-
I couldn't of said it better myself.

idk why, maybe it woulda helped her.

Another poster child, another daughter lost, will this senseless cycle never stop? It's just sad...RIP Brittney

gutted, I'm a stranger.

Spot on broham
-
32 is way to young for anyone to go. Really shocked by this, was never exactly a fan but I always enjoyed seeing her on screen.
Please stop whining about Roy Disney you fuckwads, email Harry if you're that bothered. But you aren't are you, you just want to contribute to the flames. -
Luanne was so much more than she could have been. Kudos for a truly great voice performance. The blonde girl who lives here said I like fruit pie, indeed. RIP.
-
Damn, you're acting like a pregnant bitch left on the side of the road!Get over yourself, fuckwad!
-
Rest in peace, Brittany.
-
I think I get it now. Awhile back I heard there was a Weekend at Bernies reboot and with Brit dead I just put two and two together. Maybe shes just a method actor and the new film is instead "Weekend at Bernettes." See, she faked her death that way she could see what it feels like to be authenticly dead and play her role more realistically. Im telling you "Weekend at Bernettes" is going to be the new generations Blair Witch only scary. Srry, that was pretty fucked up wasnt it anyway R.I.P. Brittany Murphy. Keep sending good shit from beyond the grave if possible.
-
I wish she would have taken my virginity before she died. :(

When you're taking it up the ass? Fuckin' pussy. I chumped him and I'll most likely chump you too.

life goes on, it's OK to joke about it, I'll be just fine with people having a good time with my death.........I remember the "you wanna touch?" scene from Don't say a Word, she was smoking hot at the time

Seriously, she's slated to be this new era's shambling, zombie-like Keith Richards... only without talent, of course

All the times I watched that show, no idea it was her. I was watching a recent SNL LAST NIGHT on Hulu where they were making fun of her on weekend update for being fired from a movie, and I was watching that just as she was I guess dying, that is messed up.
She was a unique actress in the sense that she kept going back and forth between sex symbol, and ugly duckling/plane jane, and she was good at both. Not many actresses who have that kind of versatility.
It always seems meaningless to say this, but my thoughts really do go out to her family and friends. -
I never figured she'd be a Dead Girl, but I'm usually Clueless as to how these kind of things happen, so I usually Don't Say a Word. She wasn't exactly Drop Dead Gorgeous, but she was cute in her own way, so I won't be doing any Happy Feet dance today. RIP Brittany.
-
Is not really the time to be making fun of them. Anyone who does that is extremely low class. You guys really must be locked in your mother's basements, never seeing the sun if you've lost all sense of right and wrong and decency.
-
that she suffered from diabetes
And her *husband* told the hospital that he doesn't want an autopsy done
That guy needs looking at -
Rest in peace. . .thank you for the movies, you were gone too soon.

How she could go from ashton to that, maybe cardiac arrest can be triggered by embarassment?

By all accounts he was a total dick/coke head.
But all the smart bets are on that it was: "Stress induces Cardiac arrest; due to Anorexia". -
She had an honest, earthy beauty. When will celebs learn... the gack'll get you in the end.
-
You would think the normal thing to do is dive into substance abuse when you're rock bottom, but ironically they go into that shit when they're on top, in the middle, or on the bottom. The fact that Ledger kind of went the same way and that fanboys wanted her to be Harley Quinn....very creepy.
-
I'd hit it...presuming the standard "bag over head". Her body's probably still warm...right? Hmmm......
-
anybody holdin'? I'll be in the avatar TB.
-
After seeing her in CLUELESS, I couldn't believe what a blond bombshell she really was.
-
She was on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson this year, and she was skinny as a stick and speaking with a British accent that Craig never asked her about, even though she was born in Georgia and raised in New Jersey. When the guy from Jake 2.0 tried to make fun of her for it (after she had left), Craig quietly shushed him like he knew more about the situation than he was letting on. Maybe he could tell that she was going through something like addiction? She did act pretty weird on the show.
-
regardless, it's sad that she died at such a young age.
-
I guess Dwayne Johnson need to watch his back, he's at double risk.
-
but i had no clue that she was this accomplished/esteemed as an actress until, oh, say six minutes ago. relax folks... it's proper to mourn a death, but let's not go about splashing hollow superlatives to make ourselves seem righteous. no one ever walked out of a film of hers proclaiming "god DAMN Brittany killed that shit!"
-
It was obvious that she was in trouble after her Letterman appearance. Nobody tried to help her they just wanted to laugh at her. Fuck the world is full of assholes.
-
Oh, wait, I mean *Walt* Disney. Roy Disney was, um, related I presume.Quit whining about the dude. Admit it, you don't really give a shit you just like to hear yourselves nagging about one thing or another. I doubt Roy Disney would have really given a shit about an AICN obit, frankly.

Anytime a celebrity dies,I unfortunately get to see firsthand just how fucked up and pathetic most of society really is. I never knew the girl and cant comment one way or the other on her life,but to make a post(or several) making fun of her and mocking her death? Low fucking Class and beyond pathetic. in the immortal words of Thumpers mother,if you cant say something nice-be an adult and SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!

so why do people get hyped when someone else makes a joke?

Then what about this? Her husband is one shady guy. Would you say The NY Daily News is not serious?

I guess we won't be seeing that ever again. Sad day for hollywood, she was a great actress and one of the few of her generation that actually had talent, plus 32 is way too young to go, she didn't even have kids yet. I hope this wasn't drug related she deserved better then that. RIP Britney

I won't say it's a tragedy. I think it is sad and pathetic that no one could help her. Sleep little darling do not cry. Peace and strength to her family.

You can respect life and still make fun of it.

No one has said anything remotely funny on this board. I'm not fucking amused.

One less O-Bomber voter. I thought she was an interesting actress, though. Her husband looks like a fucking slob. What's up with that?

It's unfortunate that there are so many people in the talkbacks that are so crass and crass, so dismissive of the death of someone so young. This is a sad moment in time, and my heart breaks for those she's left behind.

Can't say I'm shocked (considering she's looked skeletal the last few years), but it's still a bummer. If you don't outlive Christ, you've definitely died too young.

-
not sure how i got in the middle of Obit Flame War '09(tm). the intent of my initial statement was in no way that of disrespect towards Murphy. i merely stated that some were laying it on a tad thick in regards to her acting prowess. nothing more.
-
She seemed genuine, and she had a quirkyness about her that separated her from the rest of the everyday Hollywood starlets, most of which can't act their way out of a paper bag, and have no personality to speak of. Brittany Murphy may have been "weird," but she was a hell of a lot more interesting for that than most others of her age in the industry. She may not be remembered fondly by many, but she'll remain much more important to me than almost anyone else from her generation of American actresses.
-
I liked her acting. I thought she was an attractive woman. Most of all, she was a human being. For those reasons, I mourn her passing. Whatever lead to her heart failure, it doesn't matter. The point is a woman died! To bad mouth her so soon after her death because of your personal opinions is reprehensable! Because you are human beings, when you die I will mourn the loss but I also hope there are scumbags out there just like yourselves that will bad mouth you on your deathbeds because you are useless wastes of flesh who have achieved nothing and are a drag on humanity.
-
...but Hollywoodhellraiser is still a piece of shit. Everyone can agree on that.

..to her family and friends during this difficult time. Really liked her in Spun and Sin City, but thought she always did a great job on screen.

You are inhuman scum. Hope you asked for a heart and some decency for Christmas.

if not drugs, my guess is undiagnosed heart valve issues
by murdermostfowl
I had a close friend who had a irregular heartbeat since early childhood and it never effected her ( she was active and seemingly healthy ), to the point where she was basically ignoring the fact that she had one.
but when she was in her early 30's , she was under a period of "life" stress that had come up suddenly ( nothing extreme, just several things that came at her at once ) and then, without any previous symptoms ( or at least nothing she ever told anyone ), has a heart attack and dies. Because it was so sudden, they did an autopsy. The doctor said one of her heart valves had become defective and basically wouldn't let the heart pump anymore. -
SOOOOUUUL TRAIN!
-
...that people on this talkback like Semen Stains (seriously... Semen Stains?) are quick to say 'oh, why are you people mourning someone who wasn't that great of an actress and didn't do fuck all with her career and blah blah blah'. What the fuck are YOU doing with yourself? If making it in Hollywood is no big deal, then you feel free to go ahead and do it since it's apparently not that big an accomplishment. Fucking ridiculous that someone dies and the first thing to be spouted from some people is that they're silly for mourning them. Sorry for that. When you die I'll be sure to piss on your tombstone.
And no, I'm not torn up by Brittany's death and while I'm saddened by it I'm sure I'll get over it. That doesn't mean I need to be a disrespectful douche to people who ARE saddened about it more so than I am. Fuck's sake. -
I really liked her, she was so cute... I'm really sad, it's a shame... doesn't matter how many bad movies she did, now they're the only ones anyway... 32 years old, too young... heart attack, not likely...
If was Drew Barrymore or Lindsay Lohan, I wouldn't be so sad.. sad but true... -
Always thought her vocal talents were underrated.
-
32 years old? that's terrible
-
To everyone saying this is pandering and unsubstantiated - yes, she wasn't an icon or world peace advocate or whatever else should merit supreme grief and condolences. However, for a brief moment, she graced the viewing screens of our 'stories' and made an impact, however small it was. Personally, I thought she was great in Sin City - that's really my only knowledge of her. But seriously, she was in films; people who come to this site enjoy film; she was apart of them. rip, good actress.

And, honestly...still don't.

that's how I'll remember her.
-
I know you're still hurtin' from that can o'whup ass I opened on ya in the Iron Man trailer TB, fruitcake, but learn to fuckin' read, asshat. I'm not making fun of her death per se at all. But I am riffing off the very likely possiblity that she died of a cocaine overdose and that her coke-head, fat slob husband prob supplied her with it, which IF it is true (which is the HYPOTHETICAL and by all accounts most likely reason for a fucking cardiac arrest at age 32) yeah, she's fair game. Sorry my "white vader" references got your "Hello Kitty" panties all in a bunch there, sweetheart. Sometimes I wish AICN was face to face instead of online, you'd be one of the first pussies I'd punch right in the fucking mouth. Get the fuck off your high horse, princess.
-
It's a 'tragedy' when a mother and kid gets killed by a drunk driver; a coked out, anorexic dying of a "heart attack" is not a tragedy.
-
and it wasnt drugs as he had a family history. She seemed to have a big heart and a pretty soul... Rest in Peace... Curious to know what happened here as women are not known to die this early for heart disease.
-
You're such a tough guy. I bet you're actually glad it's not face to face. So you don't have to realize how gay that all sounded. You sound like an uncool, R-rated Han Solo. "Princess"?? "Sweetheart"??? You...my friend... are a JERKOFF. And it's like they always say... If you gotta say you got a big cock..you don't got a big cock!
-
Because it's absolutely impossible/unheard of for a 32 year old to go into cardiac arrest right? Riiiiiight...? Some of you really oughta get over yourselves.
-
The real "tragedy" today is that people feel the need to come on here and slam a dead person while giving us the bullshit excuse that they are expressing their "opinion" when they realise they're not funny and we're not impressed. An actress died. I don't know her personally, and I'm not all that affected by it, but I would never slam her in a talkback that's been made for her obituary. What kind of people are some of you trying to be? Have some taste. Harry...you gotta disable the talk backs with these man, I don't wanna read some stupid 10 year old trying to be funny on the internet at the expense of someone's death...It makes us all look bad, as I'm pretty sure you get some high profile people read your pages. Man, if I knew her and read some of the shit on here...I'd be depressed as all hell.
-
truly bad movie
typical made for Sci Fi shlock
Had names you'd recoginize, and they and the director did what they could with the story
She looked pretty good, little thin maybe
Pulled her share of the weight
Best part of the movie was the size difference between her and Eriq La Salle.
He's a pretty good sized guy, and she's itsy bitsy.
Even with him sitting and her standing, he towered over her
Got a kick out of that -
These are the same people that complain about everything being PC...not because they particuarly feel that strongly, but because they want to be able to say shit that most people view as disgusting.
-
Brittney Murphy will always hold a warm spot for her real world girl in Clueless, but that Brittney died years ago. Roy "The Idiot Nephew" Disney saved the Disney Company from obscurity so many times. Most importantly, any mention of White Vader is awesome. He seems WAY scarier than regular Vader. Besides, symbolically, white is much more frightening.
-
You were a very funny, pretty, talented young lady and my prayers go out to you and your family during a tragic time.
It's easy to sit on the sidelines of life and watch another person work. You can play armchair quarterback and criticize what others have accomplish yet never get the nerve (or balls) to get up and show the world what you are made of.
My point?
Let the haters hate
Because at the end of the day, Mrs. Murphy left behind contributions to movies, music and cartoons that will be here on this earth long after the assholes have all but vanished,
Job well done! -
Nice post!
-
Bashing someone who just died isn't right.
-
You mean the one where you claimed Stark's "you complete line" wasn't from Jerry Maguire, and then EVERY FUCKING TALKBACKER told you you're full of shit? That Iron Man talkback? Oh, and I just love geeks that threaten physical violence on a talkback, knowing they'll never have to back up those words.
-
Sounds like she was a customer of Billy Mays' White Lines Pro...
-
is the man most directly responsible for saving the Disney company, not once, but TWICE. Read Disney War and you'll see how instrumental he was in ushering in the ultra-successful Eisner era and then putting a bullet to its head when it was necessary for the company to survive. Steve Jobs went to Roy and told him that he couldn't make a deal as long as Eisner was at the helm. Pixar is perhaps Disney's (actually not perhaps, it IS, by evidence of the fact that Jobs is now the largest Disney shareholder) most important creative relationship since Walt himself ran the company. And Eisner fucked that right up... and Roy saved it. This site loves Pixar and yet, Pixar wouldn't be with Disney right now if it weren't for Roy and Stanley Gold's campaign to oust Eisner when he pretty much was running the company as if he owned it outright. But no obit here... anyone that wants to know more, read Nikki Finke's obit. I'm sorry, but I simply cannot understand there being no obit here for Roy.

by zombieheathledger
No, CreepyThinMan agreed with me and then you pretty much posted about 50 times agreeing with yourself. And I didn't threaten violence, I said I WISHED AICN were face to face sometimes so that little faggots like yourself could get the taste bitchslapped out of your mouth. (That is if you could take your mouth off your Dad's cock for five seconds.) But then we already established that you have no comprehension of hypotheticals, right? You are one dumb douchebag. Just STFU, you little pansy.

Jib + nice rack = Dead at 32.

Sad when anyone dies before there time, unless they were evil, but somehow i don't think she was, anyone who makes jokes or disrespects any untimely death needs to grow up or face the Berserkr.
-
She was fired from her last acting gig for being high and not knowing her lines and not being there on time! She was a beautiful looking woman but lost my friends who worked on the set said she was in real bad shape! Unfortunately I am not surprised I hate to say it! RIP Brit

Go ahead and ignore the rest. But rather than admit that, why don't you go ahead and call me 'faggot' and 'princess' some more? It seems to be all you have going for you. Along with your disturbing father/sex obsession.

RIP to Brittany Murphy, and my condolences to her family. Out of respect for Murphy's family, I sincerely hope this particular talkback is completely deleted--- my post included.

can cause all the effects in a person that would make you think they're on speed or coke.
All twitchy and nervous seeming. It can also make people drowse off and pass out. Affect memory. It can also cause death.
If her condition had changed recently and she hadn't sought medical attention or put it down to fatigue or stress. Diet alone could have pushed her over the line. -
I admit that I'm drunk off my ass writing this from my own problems......but goddamn people......must every asshole voice his cynism...about her life and talent...no matter what u think of her talent......she made something of herself..........can the "haters" say the same about themselves......a life has been lossed.....WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE!!!!!!
-
Disable talkbacks on obits if shit talking assholes are going to use it as a format to make jokes at the expense of a dead human being. As much as I would love to use the talkback as a format to send condolences, I would rather not have that outlet if others are going to use it to speak ill of the deceased. Please, I beg you, stop the outrage and insult and just disable the talkbacks on obits!
-
I hope you feel what its like to lose a loved one like what this poor girls family is going through...i really hoped the Aicn Talkbackers would pull their collective heads out of their asses & see this isn't a time to show how "cool" you are by being cynical & rude..sure she was an actress & a Hollywood star..but she was also a human being like u or me and deserves some respect no matter what she may or may not have done..so grow some balls, put your "toys" away grow up act like adults and have some sympathy for God's sake
-
Hey, if you're sick. Get an ambulance. They come to your house and help you. Don't rely on personal doctors so much.
-
I loved her as Tai in Clueless - she was so sweet and real. Unfortunately afterward she went the way of the standard bleached blond size 0 Hollywood starlet, but for a little while there she was genuine and wonderful. This is a terrible thing. Poor child.
-
it will be filled with mostly assholes. it isn't a joke if it isn't funny, and when you die, 'you will not be missed'. RIP
-
She was great in Clueless, And I never knew she was Luann from King of the Hill.
Damn. And well, most of the talkbackers here are douchebag wannabe/neverwas failures. One of the guys here ( Moriarty maybe? ) once called them a bunch of kids with crayons standing in front of a blank wall.Pretty spot on.
So they gotta pile on when somebody who even had the tiniest modicum of success dies.They got a little attention so they can feel good about themselves when they're sitting in their cubicles tomorrow fantasizing about the hot office girl and watching internet porn. -

Once more I laugh, but only out of contractual obligation. Ms. Murphy was a lovely, seemingly authentic young woman who also happened to be a very good actress. See her work as Christopher Walken's foil in "The Prochecy 2" for an early example of her ability to shine even in otherwise forgettable material. God damn shame she got messed up with such a carcinogenic sleazebucket. RIP Brittany Murphy, my laughter tonight gives me no joy. Fuck.
-
Made me laugh every time.
-
by taking the life of a young hollywood star.
-
Could be same cause of death (anorexia nervosa).
-
We're all assholes, sport. Heathens, missionaries, whores, politicians and psychos. Knowing we're going to die makes us assholes in one way or another. What, you wanna live forever? Too bad, asshole! See you in Hell...
-
she may not be in the same acting league as Heath Ledger, but these actors that started making their debuts in 90s pop films and biting it recently really affects me in a weird way. It's probably my age and how I was introduced to those folks at a very developmental stage of my life... RIP.
-
If I was a betting man I would say overdose, but the fact that her husband doesn't want an autopsy makes me wonder slightly if something more sinister happened. Sure he propobly supplied the drugs, so that could be a reason, but I still wonder...
-
Drugs may have been the cause, but she could have just had a fucking heart attack. I had a friend who played G.A.A footall and never touched a drug in his life and he died of a heart attack, intially lablled sudden death sydrome. Youths die of hearts attacks all the time, often its genetic, and has nothing to do with their lifestyle. Again, drugs may have played a part, but don't be fucking assholes jumping to fucking conclusions. And if her death does turn ut to be drug related, so fucking what, the poor girl is still dead and no more deserving of being so.
-
just saying what's on my mind.....Elllipses Overuse? Not familiar with it.....but if it sounds like something similiar to what I said.....then......great minds think alike....but I'm sure....this is not the first time you heard Shatner in your head.....:) I wonder
what Shatner would think if he knew he was being used as a philosphy.....:) -
This site is fucking ugly.
It use to be a time for everything around these parts....
It use to be a time to bash a hack director,
time to praise a great director,
time to discuss your favorite movies,
time to discuss a shitty movie,
times to give another talk-backer shit for no reason at all but just to start shit. That's cool, because it use to be fun.
Now all you got is a bunch of buzzards circling around angry at the world and picking away the flesh of everything they feast there eyes on. Making it a fucking task for people who actually like to come to Harry's site because they genuinely like to discuss and be informed about movies.
I don't know if it's because they been on a shitty job for too long or not having work at all. Or maybe they're pissed because of being in a shitty relationship too long, or no relationship at all. Who knows?
Whatever it is I hope you can get through it.
The lesson to be learned from Mrs. Murphy death is life is too short and it's a gift to be able to see tomorrow, not a privilege.
So why not practice being a lil' bit respectful and compassionate toward somebody else, especially the deceased, She may not have meant jack shit to you but I'm quite sure she did to somebody. Wouldn't you want the same respect If you lost a love one?
If you practice that, maybe then, when you crack a joke later, it will be funny because then it will be the right time. -
Fuck off, it's a person's life. If this was bandied about CNN twenty four hours a day, then you might have a case. I'm not even a fan of hers at all, but it's getting a little too douchey for people to come on here and bitch about her and her death publicity. I've heard people citing the war heroes in Afghanistan/Iraq, (and do I even have to say this is totally different?) but to shirk off her life is completely soulless. I'm sure if it was any obscure geeky character associated with Babylon 5 everyone would be having a shit fit, and would probably be occupying my place in this talkback.

I'm not assuming it is drugs, but I do think they are most likely culprit. Young actress known for partying + fired from job for inability to perform + super thin + dies of heart attack at age of 32 = I would not be surprised if white vader was found to be involved.
-
I was pretty upset to see her name headlined. Way to young. Oh man she reminds me of my sister. So sad.
-
Damn right! Some of these talkbackers make me sick! This is a young girl who's died here, some people forget that. Some people tit into their heads that celebraties aren't quite human, are not quite real. But they are. This is a young woman yo did not know. You saw her movies, so what? Her family knew her. Her friends knew her. She was a daughter, a sibling, a friend to somebody and likely many. They are mourning. You, who has no right to, are arguing why she is of no great loss to you or to cinema. Well, if you were to die tomorrow the same could be said of you. Doe's that make your death any less tragic than that of an Oscar winning actor? Show some respect for her and her family. If your not going to offer your respects then don't say anything.

-
I can't believe the overall tone of this talkback. I am a cynical person, but to keep seeing message after message describing her as a worthless hollywood celebrity piece of trash is more than tasteless, it's disturbing. The people of this website are surely not looking for sympathy, but rather for an outlet to broadcast a piece of news relating to film. I can't wait to piss all over your graves - oh wait, no one even knows your name, appearance, or personality, and no one will ever see you on any national venue for the public. So at the very least admit your anonymity and think about your own mortality.
-
Wow! such a tragedy. She was a great actress. I loved her work in Sin City she was great in that.

i hope everyone making jokes about her death has a nice trip to hell

by tall_boy66
She's the first shot and the very first lines of that segment. Great in it too. "We're having a regular African" *dips down and waves her hands in the air* "loooovvvveee fest in here!"
-
She says "fuck" on air, and months later she does a parody of Brittany Murphy and Murphy drops dead 3 weeks later, probably eliminating the skit from any re-runs. Poor gal.
-
I can't tell the new chicks apart. My bad.
-
Is why so much hate for someone who was an entertainer? Some of you sad bitter little people are spewing venom and bile as if she had persoanlly spent her life attacking you. She was a young actress who made movies for your enjoyment-even if you didnt enjoy them,I have no idea why you would spew so much hate towards someone so harmless. Its sick and its fucked up and its obvious that a great many of you are in need of some serious psychological help. Its pitiful and a little scary.

I've tried to reason as to why this talkback is so deeply upsetting, and I think I've finally found an explanation. She is not a huge, public celebrity, so she is not catered with the usual "her work is extensive, beautiful, compelling, culturally significant" bullshit that others are afforded. So when people degrade her or her films, no matter how bad (and I'm not a fan of hers by any means), it sends a totally inappropriate message. She's not a big enough celebrity to be recognized -- well, fuck. Last time I checked, amateur reviews for Avatar and talkbacks ranging from Dollhouse to Survivor are so obscure it borders on the obscenely irrelevant. This is straight up news, nothing more. Save your condescending opinions for the next bit of Spiderman news and not the death of another human being.
-
DISNEY YOU STUPID ASSHATS
-
I'm not gonna read the talkback, why bother, sounds like a bunch of losers who need to get their scrawny little pencil necks stomped on are lurking here. Get a fucking life.
-
loved her in 8 mile. Fuck you haters I hope Santa leaves you a bag of dogshit in your mouth for Christmas! wait you probably would enjoy that n/m
-
I can't believe some of the shit I'm reading here. Whichever way you slice it this is sad news. The fucking cunts that want to talk shit about an actress that may not have saved the world, but entertained us, can you please stick your head in the toilet and flush. KKTHXBAIBAI.
-
What a shame. I would venture to say she probably had more talent and potential to become great than most other young actresses these days. Guess we'll never know.
-
Good god, the emo bullshit in this TB is spinning out on control. Just relax, I dont see anyone making jokes (and I scrolled all the way up the TB to double check). The only thing I see is people perhaps not showing the same respect as they might to an older more established star. This probably stems from the fact that the person in question in this TB seems to have, from all intents and purposes, gotten involved in the wrong relationship and seemingly squandered their talents and in the end, their life. Its clearly a tragedy and a shame, but.....the responsibility lies with the person making decisions in their own life.
-
won this battle. Here's to her family and friends!
-
I am a huge proponent of freedom of speech, and would never presume to tell someone what they can and cannot say, but just because you can doesn't mean you should. Show some respect, maybe you'll earn some in the process!
-
There is so much hatred, ignorance and negativity here, on a site that I used to love visiting for film news. I'm now on the verge of giving up. This obit is poisonous. Kudos to all talkbackers who have protested, but this site is now overrun by immature haters. Anyway, there are better film news sources elsewhere and the AICN site creators don't seem to care what's posted on their boards anymore, it seems. Anyone know of another movie site with a talkback for real film fans, please let me know.
-
There are jokes.
-
May she rest in peace and her prayers that her family and friends get thru these sad times. I lost an Aunt that was 36 so I know how devastating this can be. It was a sudden aneurysm which she fought to live for a month. Very sad.
-
with negativity. People will admire you for it. Oh, and ROY DISNEY DOES NOT EXIST IN THIS DOJO!
-
so great that I didn't even know who she was before today.
-
Very Sad to read this.she was very beautiful and talented.she stood out in so many roles most memorable for me were clueless,freeway,riding in cars with boys,spun,sin city and the last film i saw her in dead girl in which she gave a very heart breaking performace.that movie really fucked with my head and certain things still haunt me from it.May She Find Peace Now.And you seriously should be ashamed of your self to not have enough humanity then to speak ill of the dead
-
Drugs. These deaths are always drugs. Prescription or not. It's doubly sad that she was so young. So pointless, and could have been prevented.
-
I think I have seen very few horrible jokes at Britanny's expense, some slightly off color jokes (guilty as charged) and others making some nervous and harmless jokes. And, yes, there have been a couple of insensitive remarks and callous comments regarding get death.
But I have seen way more finger waving and cries of outrage. Much more than warranted. Seems some people are just looking for a reason to get offended (I mean, compare this tb to MJ's or David Carradine's). -
i'm actually a tad dumbfounded over how upset people are getting over this tb compared to MJ's or yes, even Carradine's (i totally forgot about that one). the worst comments made here wouldn't have been a blip on the radar in either of those. let's bring the righteous indignation down a notch or two, shall we?
-
then what's the harm, is that your point? Tasteless comments are tasteless comments, dude.
-
Ohhh man that Iron Man 2 trailer talkback was so awesome. I've never seen sooo many talkbackers piss all over someone before, and it oculdn't have happened to two nicer guys. ZombieHeathLedger and CreepyThinMan. Whew. All this talk of "faggots" and cocks in mouths, not to mention the talkback handle is really starting to add up. I don't care what anyone says, I will vote for your opportunity to get married to the big, burly man of your choice, ZombieHeath. For those of you that want a laugh, go check out the Iron Man 2 talkback from Wednesday. It's good clean fun unlike the disrespectful, shock jock begging for attention from pheonixdawhogivesafuck, Metroid_Asshate or ZombieHeathsLover.
-
But a couple of people spouting them doesn't equal the fall of Western civilization. I think people are overreacting to a few - and I mean that literally, a few - bad comments.
-
BenBraddock i totaly agree this world seems to be getting worse and worse
-
I meant all I said. She wasn't very talented or did anything really noteworthy and picked shitty projects and did drugs. Now if stallone died that is a tragedy for a man who has influenced so many people and made a major contribution to the film industry Would be gone. But I wouldn't cry over him id be sadden but this chick really was a nobody. But people are acting like their own mother has died. And people saying I have no respect for live well I'm still alive but people have wished cancer on my family and for me to die. So who doesn't respect life again? And I have had a person in my fam die of a heart attack young and I cry for them not some stranger I never met. People need to stop putting celebs on a pedestal. There are people who never did drugs who died and people are crying over this cunt? What the fuck ever get off your high horse. And I like how for all your religous nut sout there everyone goes to heaven. So if your so religous a chick like this who did coke all the time gets in lol then who gets into hell?!! Lol, also to that douche who said 'your a retard' its 'you're' not 'your' learn english asswipe
-
what a surprise. locke hasn't been around as much lately so he's trying to double his output of douchiness.
-
would start with calling Brittany Murphy "brilliant and beautiful"..
sad that she's dead... anyone naive enough to think that this heart attack was most likely caused by a mix of drugs and some form of eating disorder (jumping to conclusions and 90% likely are 2 different things) well you are also part of the start of the fall of western civilization.
however, a life is a life and this is sad for some people. i get it. lets just use a little perspective. -
any naive enough to the this heart attack was "NOT" most likely...
left a word out of there. -
...of the constant hate, bashing and nonsensical bullshit from the herd. 99% of the people that come on here anonymously spewing that crap you would never say it, and 3/4 of you probably don't even really believe it, in the real world, face to face with a real person. But here, if you think you've got some grand point, no matter how incredibly insensitive and assholeish it is - shit, it's BETTER if it's over the top insensitive and assholeish - you post it. Because you think you'll get some great geek pat on the back or some other bullshit. The fact of the matter is that most of the people posting all the hate here are still trying to be one of the "cool kids", failing just like they always did. End of rant. Now go ahead and talk a bunch of shit to me so I can be proven right.
-
so, all those bitching hate Howard Stern, Bill Hicks, Louis CK etc etc?
I know the tasteless talkbackers are not exactly comedic geniuses but where is your high and mighty line drawn? -
was she forced at gunpoint to marry a man of questionable character or will those blaming the husband consider the possibility that scumbags may attract scumbags?
-
I would say everything I posted to your face. I am not a 'hater' whatever that means. I don't hate the girl. I just don't think she was a good actress and her loss is no big loss to the film industry. It sucks for her family but doesn't mean shit to me and doesn't affect my day. People die everyday where are their talkbacks? Oh and roy disney was a great loss unlike murphy and deserved a talk back herc or do you only care if its someone young. Sometimes an older person dying is more tragic
-
Yes, it's a sad day for that Brittney Murphy fan club, but 10 years from now, we'll be on to someone else.
-
It's funny that you correct someone's grammar considering your own posts look like they were written by a paint huffing third grader. I don't think assholes get it. You can show empathy or sympathy for someone without showing less for anyone else. People are sad that a young woman has died. It's still sad when soldiers, firefighters, and family members die. Yes, you should go on with your day, but I don't think any talkbacker here has said anything about how the world or even Hollywood will never be the same. Just admit that you're intimidated by 4chan so you're trolling here for the attention you don't get from people in the real world. Admit it.
-
She didn't seem so happy the past few years but I always found her charming and either sad or lovable in the right role. As far as the scum around here and their despicable comments? They have to die one day too. I don't believe in hell but after reading some of these comments it almost makes me hope for one. I think the fall of western civilization already happened. Why else would we award the Nobel Peace prize to a President two weeks after he puts 30,000 additional troops into battle!
-
Nothing like reading a talkback about someone dying to renew my hatred of the human race.
The zombie apocalypse cannot come soon enough. -
I can't believe it, she was one of my favorite actresses.
-
Not on a film-related website, clearly. Stupidest argument against an obit for a filmstar ever?
-
Descirbe my feelings on the matter yet someone has to resort to not arguing my points but how I can't get attention in real life. I'm just expressing my opinon. I'm saying she was nothing special. Its just another life of the many that die everyday. It sucks for her family and close friends but other than that who cares?and m,y argument makes perfect sense. I am aware this is a movie website but still more important people true heores die everyday and they don't get their special thread on any website why should this one be any different? Because she was in a few movies? Whatever. Live by the sword die by the sword. If she focused on her film career instead of doing drugs she may not have died so young. And yes I do correct and will correct when some moron doesn't understand the difference between your and you're
-
And I see that of the 415 post I counted (give or take a dozen, about 128-130 are purely positive condolences; 150-160 are neutral (talking about Brittany's career, the cause of death, her husband, Roy Disney, or something off hand to another TBer); about 44 are truly tasteless jokes at Brittany's expense (although Deviant Apex did apologize afterwards - class act); and another 80 or so post are being become indignant or replying angrily at something offensive another TBer said.
Of those 44 post, the majority are from the same tbers: Metroid_Fetish, HollywoodHellraiser, Semen Stains, Saber12 (so indifference to Murphy's death that he has to keep posting about it to let us know how indifferent he is), Pheonixmagida5th, ZombieHeathLedger and Linguo_IS_Dead. About a handful of people are responsible for the tasteless content (and even that is debatable about what post are truly tasteless and callous and which ones are just bad, gallow style humor).
So hardly the end of the world people. Just like it always is, a couple of people making the most noise. And even than they are not the majority of this TB (people upset with the tasteless jokes outnumber the offensive TBers).
In short, the sky is not falling and we can go back to talking about Murphy and her unfortunate death.
*Note, Cheyne probably should not be listed as a guy overreacting. He did a good job of singling out TBers he had a problem with and taking them to task. Kudos. -
The sky IS falling, dude. There's some positive things happening but overall human civilization has been taken over by a handful of corrupt corporations that spit on our faces and want the world for themselves. Society is collapsing. We are entering a new dark age if they get their way. Soon America will be a 3rd world country if people don't stand up. People ARE getting angry and rude and generally acting like assholes more because the economy is fucked and they voted for Obama and he is laughing at them as he hands their 401ks to his bankster mafia masters. So wake the fuck up and do something about it. Infowars.com

Guess Heath Ledger didnt teach anyone in Hollywood that lesson did it..
-
I got banned for saying Paul Newman's salad dressing is overrated when he died.
-
I remember that I'd already watched "Don't say a word", "clueless" and "girl interrupted", but then when I watched "Just Married" I felt deeply in love with her... Since then she was my favorite actress... And I am not a opportunist, have asked me a month ago, I would told the same thing... My opinion, guess... Rest in Peace Brittany. 1977/2009

sounds a lot like heroin withdrawl. The husband not wanting an autopsy is suspicious too. She was great as Luanne, I always thought it was impressive that she was still willing to do this tiny little tv role after she 'made it'.

No we didn't, it was a bunch of Eurotards. Know who else they gave a Nobel Peace Prize to? Yassir Arafat. A Terrorist. When you look at it that way it was entirely appropriate to give it to the O-Bomber. They'd give a Nobel Peace Prize to every brutal despot and Caligula-clone on Earth if they could. Just like the Time Man of the Year. Left wingers adore all enemies of America and freedom and shower them with adulation.

32 years old, very unfortunate. clueless still holds up and i had no idea she worked on king of the hill.

It's a shame when someone dies young, whether it was natural causes or drug related the very concept of someone dying so young is not great.
When did it become OK to mock the dead? I'll celebrate the death of a child abuser or murderer or rapist. I find cunts like Winehouse and Lohan detestable, but I'll still pity them and feel for their families when they die.
Show some respect for the dead, it costs nothing. -
should be locked up. to behave the way she did at the pantomime the other day is inexcusable, especially in front of children. and to attack the manager of the theatre. She should be charged with assault.

I hate reading about these things online, then look at the comments and find the usual assholes. The people who have to discuss it logically, explain why other people's deaths are comparatively worse than this person's death. Or the folks who like to say, "No, she wasn't any good she sucked. So shut up."The bottom line is this, a celebrity's death will always get a certain reaction because people feel like they know the person a little bit, and feel bad about it. Do people not appreciate certain people until after they're dead? Sure. People are just remembering they liked her in certain roles, and gave them a little entertainment.I suppose these obits should read: "Brittany Murphy, a person whose death was no less tragic than a non-famous person and was really not very talented when compared to other actors, died this week."
-
What I've seen her in she was cool, real shame.

a shame she is gone. She could play the quirky roles well. I hadn't heard much of her the last few years, but hearing the news about her seemed like she was in a major downward spiral and a shady husband who accelerated that. Why does that happen all the time, celeb woman marries shady man and ends up dying young. This is a warning tale of how to do anything and everything to get your friends out of downward destructive spiral

There were people who tried to help her it seems, but it wasn't enough. Rest in Peace -

didn't get obits. What a waste. I only saw Murphy in Sin City, and heard her in Happy Feet. I truly hope her death was natural causes. A heart attack in a young person is rare but possible. Look at Sergei Grenkov (sp?). He was an Olympian, but died from an undiagnosed heart condition.

Yes, let's not forget Gene Barry and Jennifer Jones who both passed away. But it is Ms. Murphy's UNTIMELY death is what makes it noteworthy. I don't know what this site uses as criteria to list obits, but 20% of the content would be obits if they mentioned everyone who died.

You are an ass. Really. To badmouth someone who has just died shows what kind of a person you are. What about just being kind? If you don't care then why are you posting? Why are you reading? You are some kind of human being.

It's because someone they are familar with and knew in a small way died. Someone they liked died. How old are you? Bet you're in your 20's and think every thought you have no one has ever had before and you are just too smart for everyone. You don't know anything and maybe when you're older you'll realize what a douche you were when you were younger.

What A Piece Of Shit
-
should be a wake up call. one of the most outstanding young actresses of her generation. really pretty. but her career went to shit because of drugs and other personal issues and she ended up having a nervous break down in New york. not far from where she lived. Same applies to Anne Heche. who got her act together and is now in comeback mode. we live in an age where, if a leader dies when he is out office, and his legacy is divisive, it wont take to long for the people who dislike that person to start having a go. in Charles Haugheys case, it took two days. for matt cooper to drag up all the "supposed" corruption. and for veteran irish journalist vincent browne, he went the other way. he befriended haughey.
-
...whatever the cause, it's just way too young to go. And yes, it hurts a tiny bit more because she was so hot... I'm a shallow bastard.
-
Yet another in the long line of "potential not fully realized" actors who dies long before their time. She was a little hit and miss as far as her film choices go (I must admit though that Little Black Book is kind of a guilty pleasure movie for me) but always seemed to give her all to the roles she chose. What a shame. RIP Britt...
-
And her act is "Look at Me, Look at ME"

That's my fave fliq of Brittany Murphy's, I saw it again a few months ago; it was one of those 2 fliqs on 1 disq dvd's (the other one starred John Ritter in Terror Tract). Now it's gonna be sad for me no matter which fliq I watch on that disq :( man it's been a bummer week; Roy Disney, then last wednesday I found out this substitute teacher @ my school passed away 2 weeks after we had last seen him due to a massive heart attaq and he was only in his mid-late 40s (though he was a heavy partier, he even dj'd on the side). Then @ around 1am soCal time today we got awakened by a call from Italy telling us an Uncle passed away, though at least he was in his 80s so he had a long life relatively speaking. Christmas will be bittersweet this year.

this is the last interview she ever gave or a selection of it..
by emeraldboy
Hollywood actress Brittany Murphy said she felt "blessed for everything I have in my life" days before her sudden death at the age of 32.

Enlarge photo Tributes To Hollywood Star Brittany Murphy
The star of teen movie Clueless and girlfriend of Eminem in the film 8 Mile died in Los Angeles of what appear to have been natural causes, according to the state coroner.
In her final interview on December 3, she described her love for her family, her charity work and her ballet regime.
Appearing dazed, distracted and frail, she admitted she was "a bit thinner now than what I would like to be".
She said she kept healthy with exercise. "I was a ballerina for a long time," the actress said. "I still take ballet lessons now - what it does to your body is incredible."
Murphy, who was married British screenwriter Simon Monjack, added: "I feel blessed for everything I have in my life and my family."
She initially struggled to find work after filming Clueless, the movie that made her famous.
"So funny, but it was hard to get a job for two years after that, everyone thought I was really Tai," she explained.
Murphy is understood to have collapsed in the bathroom of her Beverly Hills home.
An ambulance crew attempted to resuscitate her but she was pronounced dead at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre.
Neighbour Clare Staples said she saw Murphy on a stretcher but she "looked as though she was dead at the scene".
Authorities are looking into Murphy's medical history but because toxicology tests will be required an official cause of death may not be confirmed for some time.
A police investigation has been launched and officers have visited the property, located above Sunset Strip.
Murphy's father, Angelo Bertolotti, said he learned of her death from his son and was stunned. "She was just an absolute doll since she was born," Mr Bertolotti said.
"Her personality was always outward. Everybody loved her - people that made movies with her, people on a cruise - they all loved her. She was just a regular gal."
He said he had not heard much about the circumstances of his daughter's death. He divorced her mother when Murphy was young and had not seen Murphy in the past few years.
Mr Bertolotti said he used to be in the Mafia and served a jail sentence for drug offences.
"She was just talented," Mr Bertolotti said. "And I loved her very much."
Murphy was born on November 10, 1977, in Atlanta.
She grew up in New Jersey and later moved with her mother to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career. -
turned up deranged and barefoot at someone´s house claiming to see ufos in the sky, that´s normal?
-
Could never picture her doing the voice of Luanne.
-
First my uncle frances died not long after his 80th birthday. and then in september my dad died suddenly after a major operation. people were shocked.
-
Also.
-
I think that's my favorite movie of hers. Best line delivery, in response to "What are you looking at?": "Your bitch whore face, BITCH!" I rewound that moment several times.
-
As for Natasha Lyonne. She got fat. If she's stayed anorexic like Britany, she might be dead but she still would have had a career. Also, doing crap like "Comic Book Villains" didn't help.
-
never heard of that?
-
R.I.P. Brittany Murphy
-
I thought she was supertalented and was looking forward to so much more from her. I keep saying that about people this year. *sigh*
I don't know what happened to her, if she was on drugs or anything. But if anyone here is taking drugs, can you please stop now. Thanks. :) -
On the tough times you described. Also, Comic Book Villains was a movie that (IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY) had Natasha Lyonne (spl?) and Cary Elwes which was about 2 or 3 comic book stores fighting over the comic book collection of someone who had just passed. I thought it was an ok fliq, a lot of people pissed on it. I thinq Natasha was one of the co-owners of a store (I believe her husband was the hardcore geek?) and Cary was a bully who turns out SPOILER is also a bit of a comiq book geeq @ the end. If that summary is wrong I apologize, I only watched bits and pieces of it and that was years ago.

Initial reaction calling the deceased amazing/terrific/legendary regardless of the actual work/skill of the deceased? Check.
Backlash calling the deceased a hack/bitch/terrible performer? Check.
Back-backlash calling the backlashers horrible people who don't respect the dead? Check.
Group of talkbackers immediately jump to assorted suspicions regarding cause of death (drugs/conspiracy/eating disorder/etc)? Check.
Backlash against the suspicious talkbackers demanding to know why everyone always assumes drugs/conspiracy/eating disorder/etc? Check.
Small chorus of talkbackers demanding to know why other noted death is not represented with an obit? Check.
Entire talkback degenerates into nasty insults back and forth? Check.
Looks like we got ourselves an AICN obit talkback. -

GOOD GOD, People! Let Me Bring This Back to the Realm of Decenc
by deandome
I'm shocked....SHOCKED at the display of bile & crass humor here @ AICN re. the death of Miss Murphy. Class it up...guys!! To that end, I'm hoping someone here can help me with a small query: DID SHE EVER GET NAKED ON FILM? FULL FRONTAL? FUNBAGS-ONLY? BARE ASS?
-
Maybe they'll let you sit in at her autopsy.
-
It's sad that she died so early, but it was quite obvious that she had a myriad of problems and was almost constantly living in a daze. The fact that her husband didn't want an autopsy conducted? HARDCORE drugs. While it IS sad, I have to say I didn't think much of her acting ability. I can't recall seeing her in anything where she left any kind of visible impression on me.
-
Stop calling her 'miss'. Somebody married this dumb shit.
-
in the U.S. It is very likely that this is exactly what she died from. So, I suggest that everyone cease their judgmental accusations until and autopsy is performed and the coroner's report released. Ask yourself this question: Does it really make you feel that much better about yourself and your life to trash and dehumanize someone you don't even know?
-
is so intertwined with Film making. I come to sites like this because I love films and the process of making them, but then something like this reminds you of the sad, unfortunate side to Hollywood.It would be nice if the two could eventually separate themselves, so that the serious actors and film makers could work without the distraction of people seeking "celebrity". But that will never happen.
-
Some of these "celebs" that pass on make me wonder what all the fuss is about.

you sure seem to know a lot about her. It's douchebags like you that keep the tabloids in business. You probably have your DVR set to record TMZ everyday.
-
I'm just using the comments in this thread as fuel. Honestly, and yes, I'm telling the truth here... I forgot she was in Clueless, so King of the Hill was the only point of reference I had for her. Nice try, cunt.
-
I'm not even sure if the shit I'm saying is true, it's just stuff that has already been posted in the thread. If a couple posts below this one somebody says she was born with a penis, then you can bet I'll be calling hermaphrodite for the rest of the thread. On an unrelated note, did anyone hear about Brittany Murphy's penis?
-
Have to call it. Probably that and prescription drugs.
-
...both the news of her death, and the typical reaction to it from those here who will go to their own grave unmourned by the world and just want to use the opportunity of a celebrity's death to siphon for themselves ANY attention while they're still around to see it. And RIP lockesbrokenleg, I'm sure wherever he is, he is thoroughly unimpressed. -
YEAH!

By the way MF, I guy who has to put up a dozen post of lame, shocking "jokes" just to get a reaction is the epitome of pathetic. I know you'll post a reply because you are just jumping at the chance to reply (Brittnay Murphy is so lame that you have to post every 10 minutes), but don't bother because I'm moving on.
But keep being a cunt. -

For a few minutes at least. You want the real proof about how worthless she is? Nobody is moderating this. NOBODY CARES. I'm going to pound my keyboard with my junk for twenty minutes and post it, and you know what? There will be a world of talent and depth in that writing that wasn't present at the brightest moments of Brittany Murphy's brain. I'd more likely mourn the light bulb going out in my ceiling fan than I would her.
-
Or are they? You want we should call the police for you?
-
Can't wait. Didn't see it in the theaters. I was just watching her as DG in the Tin Man yesterday.

She had a midget fan club that scored her coke all the time. Anyway, one of those little fucks is holding a gun to my knee. It's not my head, but I still think it would hurt like fuck. I'm trying to care she's dead, little guy, I'm trying.

What's worse - the trolling or the holier-than-thou crowd?
by wickedjester
Each celebrity death brings much the same, as everyone has said. Some good jokes, some terrible ones and some that are just in horrible taste. With said jokes comes the crowd who calls Talkbacker X this and that for not showing empathy for someone they never met and probably never would have met. Please.Do you think for a minute that pretending to care about someone's death is really going to place you higher on the society food chain? Or is it more of a religious thing?Atleast the majority of the TBers say what everyone is really thinking.Sad for her friends and family and the people that actually knew her.Personally, doesn't do shit for me one way or the other. Which is, I'm guessing, exactly how Brittany would've felt had she been informed of my untimely demise and never knew me.
-
The people you wanna have overdose on drugs never would! Like Motley Crue would never fucking overdose man, never! You could put them in a room with two tons of crack. They come out a half an hour later, "Rock on man!" "Shit, they're still alive. Fuck! They're probly gonna make another double-live album now, God dammit!"
-
I'm not going to be one of those she wasn't on drugs apologists because who knows at this point. I will say that it's preaty much common knowledge that being skinny to the point of being dangerously below weight and then getting the flu can kill you. I've seen big people take a big weight dip after getting sick, so I know someone like her getting sick can be fatal.
-
in honor of her Girl Interrupted character.
-
wanna bees should be sent directly to finnouala flanaghan. What she said about jim Carrey was very revealing. " I have worked with many clowns down through the years. Jim Carrey is no different. in that like a lot of clowns, jim Carrey finds it difficult to share, when the spotlight is not on him. She then went on... to say the following thing. you have to very tough to make it hollywood. it can destroy you and I have seen many people get destroyed by hollywood. it is quite literally a machine.

If you had not died...I would not have this hilarious fucking Talkback to read. Your sacrifice shall be remembered for all eternity, or at least till the powers that be get pissed off and take it down. Sleep well luscious.

She was gorgeous.
-
Hey Drew, how's it goin?
-
I may not have KNOWN her but I've seen her on the screen quite a few times. That creates a familiarity whether it's rational or not. She had a very sweet persona, and I can't help but feel bad that she's gone. Also, there's a selfish reason... I won't get to see her in anything else now. I felt that same kind of selfish sadness when Heath died. Anyway, that's just my two cents. I need to stop looking at this talkback now, it just makes me angry.

Abbie Elliot's killer impersonation kills Brittany Murphy...
by burnhollywood
...Are Angelina Jolie and Sarah McLachlan next?!
-
Maybe in an earlier era she could have walked in Lucille Ball's footsteps as the "lovably daffy" girlfriend/neighbor/best friend in a string of B-movie comedies...
Thanks to the impossibly shitty screenwriting of this era, though, there wasn't a place for her...the only role these modern hacks know how to write is for the perpetually supportive girlfriend who doesn't say much but stands there smiling and looking pretty.
I remember Sarah Silverman saying she bailed on a big screen career because she didn't want to play the expository "best friend" over and over and over again ("Trudy! It's been nine months since you've broken up with Chad! You need to find somebody new!"). I can't help but wonder if the cancellation of KING OF THE HILL was actually the beginning of the end for this poor gal...Luanne Platter was practically a Shakespeare character compared to the roles currently being offered to the never ending wave of aspiring actresses breaking themselves on Hollywood shores these days... -
Actually, Bill Hicks said the same thing before Leary did. Leary is a hack.

Can't really explain it, but she just had this really melancholy way about her. Like you can see that she was damaged in some way. When I first read that she died this morning, I immediately thought suicide. I don't know anything about her, so my speculation may be way off. Either way, it's a sad fate.

Come on AICN. Let's keep the shitty headlines consistent.
-
couple with a few dozen smokes.

I guess I know Ms. Murphy best as Luanne, as I watched a lot of "King of the Hill" in first runs and on Adult Swim. On a show with a lot of great voice actors she held her own.
-
We'll wait for the autopsy, but it's kind of suspicious that the husband requested that one not be performed. These kids have the world by the balls with salaries as they are today, and they seemingly wreck it all. WTF? It's not like she couldn't afford medical help!
-
Fuck'em here. If you can't take the time to acknowledge Bat Masterson or DISNEY or 'Song of Bernadette', but make sure you have Herkimer's mother fucking 'Vault/linkathon/Amazoncrapest' foisted into your face 33 times a month-well that shows you EXACTLY what this site is geared towards now. The Roy Disney thing is frankly embarrassing.
-
But all of the drugs she took somehow created her into a modern Frankenstein, she will probably keep walking even if you cut off her head.
-
And it's not like she was spending all that money on food either!
-
You proved my point. A human being died. No greater or less than anyone else, but a person all the same.
-
ejected into an open sewer full of rabid badgers. Fucking stain of cunt.
Yeah, she lives and Murphy dies.
Just plain fucking wrong. -
Her autopsy proved nothing fishy. Now you can silently swallow your pride and move on to the next thread.

This has absolutely got to stop. For the most part, heterosexual men do not like waifs. The fashion industry only likes them because they are walking coat hangers to them, not because they have any desire to fuck them in the physical sense of the term. So why does Hollywood have this fetish for actresses like Natalie Portman & Co. who have bodies like 12 year old boys? Why??? Why must other actresses with curves have to starve themselves to appease these douche bag Hollywood execs and their closet pedo sensibilities? Look what they've done to Jennifer Connolly over the years. Told her she could never win an Oscar with her jugs. And now look at her. Thank Crom that some European actresses like Monica Bellucci can tell them to go fuck themselves over it. Hollywood thinking cast [now rail thin] Teri Hatcher instead of Bellucci in *Tomorrow Never Dies* over Pierce Brosnan's objection. I rest my case.
-
"heart attack" is not a medical term-- her heart could stop for many reasons-- drugs, electrolyte disorder, even coronary disease (yes, it's rare but can happen), congenital heart anomalies that can kill later in life.
An autopsy will hopefully answer the question.
What they lay press means by heart attack is that the heart stopped beating. That is not a diagnosis per se, it's the end process of something else.

Do you watch a lot of E.R.?

I was not saying Murphy was a waif back in the day, I was asserting that Hollywood's fetish for rail thin actresses put stress on her to starve herself into being thinner. Look at the Christina Ricci of today for yet another example of this Hollywood thin fetish.
-
I saw Spun for first time this past week where they were both great and she played his girlfriend. Of course they were both in Sin City and she plays his girlfriend in the upcoming The Expendables as well. It's a sad loss, I always liked her . Prescription pill abuse is the drug of choice for a lot of people and now that stars are dying of it maybe more will be done about it.

She probably was a drug abuser and didn't eat for extended periods of time. It is too much of a strain on the heart. The fact that the hubby didn't want an autopsy makes it hard to come up with concrete evidence, but speculation is what we do best...

Then the Olsen sisters. Unless Ashley eats Mary Kate. That'll buy her some time.

Should have been gone long before all these other people. She needs to join her pussy ass husband in the afterlife and let their kid live somewhat of a normal life. Sadly the garbage of humanity seems to never ever die, they live for what seems like for fucking ever.

Really? What did Roy Disney do other than live longer than Brittany? What did Roy Disney do other than have a name that's been hammered into your head as being important. Peace and solace to BOTH their families. All loss is tragic and PERSONAL! And that's the point. The people coming on here with ANYTHING to say other than RIP, or something to that affect, are trying to prove something about THEMSELVES! Not the world. Not society. Not whatever importance they THINK the deceased had, or didn't. You're trying to make yourselves out to be intelligent, or profound, or witty. EPIC FAIL IN ALL REGARDS!

Either that or Christ. He did play a character named "Fish."

Coroner said she died from Natural causes. doing a shit load of blow can naturally cause your heart to stop... only reason a 32 year old can have a heart attack.
She was OK, not great, decent -
I have heard the brittany murphy had diabetes. my late dad had diabetes. If your blood sugar gets too high you become hypoglaecemic and you have to go to hospital, to reduce the blood sugar. this next thing is very important. if your blood sugar gets too low, your run the risk of getting urinary tract infection. I have seen that up close and peronal. it was the most shocking thing to see. it wnet undetecected and untreated in my dad for six months. they gave him very powerful medication to treat that. It may well be that britaany was on a concoction of different things. when my dad was rushed to hospital he was toxic. he could have died. which he did anyway. from a bleed in the brain.
