Brittany Murphy’s career officially F’d in the A

June 2nd, 2008 // 75 Comments

Brittany Murphy seemed to have it all at one point. Ashton Kuther, a sky-rocketing career and looks that only the previous two items could afford. Then Ashton curbed her and she pretty much went to shit. Her one last chance to maintain relevancy happened when Disney magically chose her to be the voice of an all new CGI Tinker Bell movie. Brittany would also be the face of the new Tink for the press as well. But then she decided to date Captain Illegal Simon Monjack who the Feds are trying to deport from the country. Disney likes their stars pure as the driven snow (Right, Lindsay!) and basically dumped Brittany Murphy on Friday – without bothering to tell her. Those folks are adorable. Hollywood Newsroom has the details:

Tinker Bell was a disaster. The story didn’t work, too many fart jokes and lesbian innuendoes. The CGI was subpar. Most importantly, Tinker Bell herself. The animation and Brit’s vocal work lacked the magic Lasseter expected with this iconic Disney character. And there was a major PR problem – Disney had publicly announced Brittany Murphy AS Tinker Bell. Press releases were sent, pictures taken. It was an embarrassment, the family-friendly company didn’t want to associate themselves with a rumored drug-addled washed-up actress — last known for marrying a shady old guy that looked like her dad.
Poor Brittany. We called three times to her representation for a response. The first comment was “what, huh?” and a hangup. The second reply was no comment. The three reply was a simple confirmation that Brittany Murphy is no longer associated with Disney or Tinker Bell.

Whoa whoa whoa. How can a movie have too many lesbian innuendos? They might as well call the movie “We Don’t Want an Oscar Bell.” Oh, Disney. How the mighty have fallen…

Thanks to Suki Jonze for even remembering who the hell Brittany Murphy is. I had to use Encyclopedia Brittanica.

    Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’ll be pissed if they don’t release that movie. My daughter loves the Disney fairies stuff and has been waiting for this for quite a while.

    Sounds like they had too much fairy in the fairies though :)

    That’s funny…. no snow boots, no mention of K-Fed or the Spearlings. I think using bangs to cover those ridiculous extensions *was* the way to go, however.

    Eating disorders, bad plastic surgery, botox, too many cig’s, and drug abuse will do that to a person’s face, body, career… and that guy she’s w/ looks like he might beat the shit out of her on occassion. All that being said, I always thought she was waay over rated in the looks & acting dept. And I heard the cutesy act was just that…an act; and that she was actually a royal bitch. Heck, even her names is a fake…her first name isn’t Brittany..its Sharon or something. Anyways, I think she’s one f’ed up broad, is what she is. And her career is definetly in the shitter.

    The good news is that there are at least 50 porn stars with some variation of the name “Brittany”. And there is room for at least one more.

    Fucking bullshit, don’t belive the hype man. This ain’t about some hollywood slut. The truth is Disney cancelled the fim project because Tinkerbell is a full blown junkie.. Bitch got hooked on her own pixie dust. A good pusher knows that you never ever get hooked on your own shit. Now we’re out a connection man. You better believe when we whistled “Hi Ho Hi Ho” we was tripping dwarf ballz. I’m so fucking grum…pissed off.

    She was better with a little meat on her bones. She probably loses more roles given her appearance as compared to other actresses with that frame. What used to make her stand-out is lost and she’s become a dime a dozen. It’s too bad. She’s a fun chick, she needs a make-over and a TV sit-com.

    That sucks. Brittany Murphy is talented. The problem is that she’s made some wrong choices – like that husband of hers! He has a beautiful son and a daughter in Europe who he has abandoned and is talking about bringing MORE kids into the world with Brittany! Whatever. Get rid of him Brittany! Don’t do it!

    I still think she’s hot in that cuddly meth-whore way, and it makes me feel confident about myself – like the sky is the limit – that she has associated herself with that blubbering puddle of maggot ridden diarrhea and pus oozing all over her in the pictures.

    if her career is over why does she have so many projects on the go? this site is more and more like perez hilton’s “outright lies” style of blogging.
