Brittany Murphy Dead @ 32 years old

[Saxman]

New reports saying she died from Natural Causes

I've said that several times already. Unfortunately because she was an actress and was unusually thin it IMMEDIATELY must mean drugs. Because, y'know, it's not like you can lose a lot of weight if you have a severe illness.

I was at 130lbs and 6 feet when I was hospitalized. Thought everything was cool till they said I was type 1 diabetic. Weight loss is def a symptom.

[Saxman]

Exactly my point. She could have had a completely non drug-related underlying condition that was exacerbated by a severe case of the flu or another disease. She could have been an undiagnosed diabetic, or her weight loss could have been from any NUMBER of illnesses and not ONE of them the result of drugs.

Until a Tox Screen comes back saying "coke" why not give a person the benefit of the doubt for once? It's a tragic enough situation without the wannabee Paparazzi spinning their own versions.

I guess I'll take the liberty of putting a cork on this controversy...

The cause of death was Pneumonia coupled with an accidental over-the-counter flu medication overdose.

So unless she was taking nyquil to get a buzz, I think some people here are going to be disappointed.

I guess in a way you're right. Presumption based on a single example is always more efficient than a conclusion based on facts. Helps everyone make sense of things.

From the article cited above:  "A coroner's report released lists the primary cause of death as community acquired pneumonia, with contributing factors of iron deficiency anaemia and "multiple drug intoxication". Her death was ruled accidental.
 
Coroners officials confirmed prescription medications also played a role in her death."

So a little more 'Hollywood' than just Nyquil.

[Reschke]

Well whatever the case she died long before she should have and the girl was a pretty good bit part actress.

[Yeager]

Life is the leading cause of death. 

Also,

Live life well.  Love and be loved, because you never know when you number is going to get called. 

I think she did love and was loved dearly.  Let it rest at that.

Well said Yeager <S>

The prescription medicine she was taking was for menstral cramps.
