Actress Brittany Murphy passed away

[Mabelle]

I quite liked her, and it is sad that she's passed so young. However, i can't say im too suprised. She has started to look rough, somewhat strung out and very thin over the last couple years. I hoped that her break from the lime light and marriage had given her time to mature, and mayeb kick some destructive habits.. But who knows, she could have had an unknown cardiac problem. It's not unknown to happen.

It's been known to happen, but given that she was part of Hollywood, suspicions surrounding her death are immediately cast. Remember Heath Ledger? I hope this turns out to be natural causes, but either way, this is very sad, indeed.

Sidenote, even if her husband is Jewish, if she isn't, then what does it matter if an autopsy is performed? Sounds suspicious to me...

ETA: Early reports are saying her heart failure was due to anorexia. Over the past years, she did struggle with weight issues, so it does sound like that could be the cause of her death.

"Her close friends say that she suffered from "a lot of inner demons."
Clueless director Amy Heckerling believes that the root of her problems came from her poor body image, which many have originated from the set of their film. Amy says:

"She seemed to go through a change on Clueless. Maybe she felt like she was not the, like, skinny, pretty girl, you know? And then the next few movies she was, you know, thinner, blonde … going out with Eminem and Ashton Kutcher."
​

Another close friend and source agreed, saying:

"A lot of her problems were due to poor self image. She wore extraordinary amounts of makeup, tons of fake eyelashes, got her teeth capped, dyed her hair blonde, lost weight – she wanted to be a beauty. She didn't want to be the fat girl from Clueless. She didn't eat a lot. She would drink copious amounts of coffee."



other sources claimed she was "unfocused" on the set of her films and one insider on her most recent indie flick, Something Wicked, claimed that Murphy "was barely there … She'd go in and out of consciousness in the middle of takes."

They said on the news this morning that so far her death appears to be of natural causes but they are still waiting for the toxicology reports. And I have also heard that she had problems with anorexia, and if thats the case your heart does start to shut down and can be very badly damaged.

In the picture above she doesn't look like she was suffering from an eating disorder though. But I guess appearances can be deceiving??
