Default Brittany Murphy Dies

Aww I loved her movies


Brittany Murphy died early this morning after she went into full cardiac arrest and could not be revived, multiple sources tell TMZ.

She was 32.

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.

Murphy starred in such films as "Clueless," "8 Mile," and "Don't Say a Word."

Woah. That's just shockingly sad. I'm not familiar with her but have heard of her and, quite frankly it's just sad any way you put it. She was only 32.

Sucks. I wasn't a huge fan, but she was cute. She always seemed a little too fragile for Hollywood.

I thought she was great in Clueless -- one of my favorite girly movies.
Hadn't seen her in anything else besides that babysitter movie when Dakota Fanning was little.

I'm pretty sure she had an eating disorder and was doing drugs (those are what's been rumoured for years) -- she really should have gotten help.

She was fantastic in Girl, Interrupted.

But I'll always remember her for her role in my all time favorite campy cult classic, Drop Dead Gorgeous.

It seems 2009 really is the year of the dead celebrity .

She was "Lisa"... I think at one point she gives Amber (Kirsten Dunst) her costume because she can't compete.

She was Lisa Swenson... the ditzy girl who is into show tunes because of her gay brother.

"Besides... you know they only had me because Peter needed that kidney"

Seriously, the funniest damn movie of all time. I remember my friend Leah and I went to see it in the theater, and were laughed so hard we cried and probably lost bladder control. We were the only ones in the whole theater who thought it was funny too... and EVERYBODY turned around and stared at us when the lights came on and the movie was over. I think I can quote about every line in the whole damn thing! My friend Kim and I used to watch the silly thing almost daily our first 2 years in college.

I'm so glad you told him! DDG is my favorite movie of all time I think. Seemed to set Adam West up for his self depreciating recurring role in Family Guy.

"Last year, my roommate did Adam West... she said he was SO horny!

Oh wow. That was her? She looked totally different then. Probably made her change up for the movie because she basically looks like a twig n comparison from all these recent shots.

I adore that movie and own it. So going to watch it sometime this week now. Thanks for mentioning it, though under such sad circumstances.
