Brittany Murphy dies aged 32

By Matt Holmes / June 25, 2011

Time is against me this morning, I literally have 10 minutes to knock this one out. I wasn't actually going to post anything on the site until tonight with the day I've got ahead of me but when I checked the news this morning, I couldn't ignore this story completely. It felt right that I get something up. Daily Mail are reporting that American actress Brittany Murphy, has passed away of a heart attack way too soon. BBC say it was natural causes, though that just doesn't happen at the age of 32. Either way it's so sad. My favourite performance of hers was as Shellie in Sin City, where she seemed to have grown to a state where she felt completely comfortable with her body and her undenied attractiveness. From the sounds of the articles going up right now, it seems she took a nosedive physically after this movie and it's resulted in this. It's tragic, really. I enjoyed her work in 8 Mile and her brilliant performance in Don't Say A Word. She came onto the scene in Clueless, of course. Just felt like I was getting to know her. So sad. I'll write more later.
