I am genuinely shocked and saddened by this news. A terrible day for the Walt Disney company. A long standing fighter in keeping Disney in the vane in which his father and Uncle did he managed to return Disney to their true path.

My thoughts and condolonces go out to his family and friends...

+1 please!

Brittany Murphy! Actress from 8 Mile and Clueless. She died this morning!

 

[LiveForTheLaunch]

^ What! How? She was really young!

EDIT- Nevermind.. I guess it was cardiac arrest? Crazy.. Especially at 32 years old.

 

[RCF]

Heart attack at 32 is highly unusual. Honestly in some of the pictures she looked very very skinny. Like she was anorexic.

 

[Manderr]

I didn't think she was that thin really! Shame for it to happen so young though, what a waste.
