Brittany Murphy

I remember seeing her in a disney show called"sister sister" with tia and timara.I thought she was a pretty good actress and she had those eyes that just followed you all around the room like some of the paintings.I liked the movie she did with ashton called"happily married" or at least I think that was the name.She played opposite Dakota Fanning in"uptown girls" and she was pretty good in"don't say a word"with Oliver Platt and Micheal Douglas.I hadn't seen her in anything lately and I didn't know she was married.I am very curious as to how someone only 32 dies from natural causes.They are doing an autopsy so time will tell us something.I hope and pray her family is able to deal with their grief without it getting the better of them.This was unexpected I think so they are all probably still in a state of shock.I am sure that I wouldn't be stepping on any toes by saying that our prayers go out to the family.

` you and me both. I was like wtf natural causes? She is too young for that.

`did you read about all the medicine she had and it is suspected that two of the ones she had were the same kind found in anna nicoles blood.I know that topamax is used to treat constant miagrains(I have to take it)and it is said to cause weight loss(wish my metabolism would recognize this and react accordingly lol).They also said she had quit a few pain killers at her disposal.Her husband says no way did she die from drugs.I don't know but I sure hope it isn't another accidental overdose.

[andriek]

` No I didn't see that. I have been running around all this week and barely get a chance to see the news.

`Thsi was so sad...and all the speculation about it being drugs..come to find out she was just sick...............

[southernfinery]

`well in most celebrity homes they have a tendency to partake of some strong medicines mainly because they can afford the best and what we call extreme or strong,oddly enough,the medical people call the best.I have heard of alot of actors taking anti-anxiety meds or nerve meds to calm down so they can perform to the best of their ability.I wonder how many great performances we have seen wherein the actor was just so out of it nerve wise not drunk or high wise,that they performed remarkably well to our naked eyes.It is even sadder to think of how high one has to get to allow themselves to react to another in such a way as to make the audience believe they are true lovers.................I was so saddened to hear of her husband passing.May he and brittany rest in peace.I pray for her mom to not be consumed with grief and that her friends are ever present in her time of need.

`Actually, I saw an interview with Larry Hagman(I Dream of Jeannie and Dallas actor) and he had a liver transplant in 1994 or 95 and he said that he was drunk most of the time. Few people knew that.

`Wow, about the Larry Hagmen thing. 0.0 I watched those reruns as a kid so I never really looked for signs of drunkeness.

And Brittany was a beautiful young woman with a lot of talent. The earliest I've seen her was when she was the redhead grungy girl on the Clueless movie. It's such a shame that she was taken from us so soon. I expected her to do a lot of great things in the future with film, or possibly her passion for music (I don't know if she did anything with music before her death) but then again, we shouldn't "expect" tomorrow...
