Brittany Murphy died of cardiac arrest early this morning. She was 32. TMZ reports:
A 911 call was made at 8:00 AM from a home in Los Angeles that is listed as belonging to her husband, Simon Monjack, the Los Angeles City Fire Department tells TMZ.
We’re told Murphy was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where she was pronounced dead on arrival.
There’s been a cloud of controversy surrounding Brittany’s screenwriter husband Simon Monjack who the U.S. government has already attempted to deport to Britain. I’m not saying he did it, but I’m also not saying she didn’t suddenly realize there’s a gigantic British man in her vagina and then die of shock. Or drugs. — Drugs and shock.
Rest in Peace, Brittany.

Poor thing. I hope they don’t rack up a bunch of muck around her death. I hope they just let her be and send out their best wishes. Ha, that will never happen.
Poor thing. RIP.

I grew up watching Clueless. This is one celeb who I will say I actually care a little about dying.
Jim | December 20, 2009 at 2:28 pm
Hema, no thanks. You’re too fat and ugly.
LOLOL | December 20, 2009 at 2:28 pm
Why do people that don’t deserve to die continue dying, when people that should be dead keep thriving?
Your gods work in mysterious ways.

She must have been on drugs if she married that guy.
dave | December 20, 2009 at 2:49 pm
wait a tick. that fat, ugly, unkempt, no style having guy was banging this broad. AWESOME. plus one for fat ugly dudes. it’s honestly more shocking than a c-list celeb dying from doing too much coke.
gink | December 20, 2009 at 2:50 pm
Still so young ,and after leaving ashton kutcher she had so much to live for ….ahhh but it is a tragedy and so unexpected. What a pity ,she was so charming and she was great in Sin City.
GirlsWearingMyJersey | December 20, 2009 at 2:50 pm
Whoa! Now that was a true shocker! So sad to die so young. Having a weak ticker myself, this is especially frightening… and I’m only a couple years older than Brittany. RIP.
Cosmopolite | December 20, 2009 at 2:52 pm
It really shocked me when I saw this.
When they’re sick for a while, like Patrick Swayze, it’s still really sad, but it’s not as much of a shock.
She just died out of the blue. Absolutely no warning.
Rest in peace, and my thoughts go out to her family.
And for you pricks that feel the need to make nasty comments, it’s really not funny.
GirlsWearingMyJersey | December 20, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Whoa! Now that was truly a shocker. And to die so young makes it especially tragic. RIP Brittany.

So what, Superficial Writer, you’re not going to wait for a cause of death and then post some crap about it being all her fault if it turns out to be drugs, like you did with DJ AM? Just like with anyone else, her death is a shame, but the idea that you’d be sympathetic to any dead celebrity after the shit you wrote about him makes me sick. Fuck you.

Wow! Thats insane! 32 is wayyyy too young. As sad as this is I hope this provides some people with the wake up call they oh so need…
Crystal | December 20, 2009 at 3:21 pm
How terribly sad. Prayers lifting up for her family in this hard time. I really hope she wasn’t doing drugs, because if she was, it was only a matter of time before he heart gave out. I really loved her as an actress. What a crappy hear for celebrity deaths.
Vanteal | December 20, 2009 at 3:21 pm
This is so sad, Britney Murphy was one of the few celebs I thought was actually pretty cool. But for someone to die this young means 1 of 3 things..Her husband did it, Drugs did it, Or she was genetically prone with heart failure in her families genes…Or maybe she was trying out some new products for a celebrity endorsement that caused it..::shrugs::.Ok, that was 4 things…In any case she was just way too young!..R.I.P

They said her mother found her unconscious in the shower. Paramedics said she was in cardiac arrest.

Am I the only one who finds this really cruel?? Not cool Superficial writer, not cool at all…poor woman
Dave | December 20, 2009 at 3:26 pm
“Terribly sad” and “tragedy” aren’t exactly words that come to mind when some cokehead dies of a drug overdose.
Ass | December 20, 2009 at 3:27 pm
That’s very sad to hear, your British man in the vagina comment is really cruel and not funny. I think even YOU should think twice sometimes, dumbass.
