Heath Ledger has passed away :MEMORIAL PICS POSTED

[RadioNate]

Perez is reporting that there are rumors that one of the Olsen twins was with him?

yeah - the olsen twin thing is weird. The speculation is drug overdose which wouldn't surprise me. I would assume it was an accidental overdose rather than suicide but only he would really know.

 

[ImMarcik]

OMG my DD is going to be so sad. How horrible.

 

[Deb in IA]

I don't know what's more shocking, the fact that he's dead or the fact that it was reported to the media in less than 90 minutes.

Yes.

I sure hope they notified his next-of-kin first, but since they are from Australia, I doubt it.

 

[Aisling]

They're waiting for a second coronor to show up before they take him out of the apartment.

 

[BabyPiglet]

Wow. I can't believe it! Wow...

He was so young, and a daddy!

 

[Obi-Wan Pinobi]

Oh, man what a shock!!

Since there are so many threads popping up about Heath, I'm going to combine them into one thread so everyone can share their thoughts.

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

Omg, I'm so sad.

 

[jazzmine]

I'm shocked! How very sad. And his daughter is so young.

I just saw that scrolling along the bottom of the screen on E!. At first I thought it was a joke. Really hard to believe.

My "give him a chance" tag refers to him. It's from the new Batman movie thread a while back where I stated that it would be difficult to measure up to Jack Nicholson as The Joker, but I would give Heath a chance.

Sad. So very, very sad.

I'm shocked, it's so sad. He was only 29 yrs. old. TMZ is in a state of shock.

Very, very sad. Heath was amazingly talented and his death is the world's loss. I feel especially bad for his little girl who will not get to know her father.

Heath struck me as a troubled soul. His performance in Brokeback was so heartfelt and gutwrenching that it was impossible to bring those emotions out of thin air (and no, I am not implying that he was a closeted gay man). Something must have touched him deeply and continued to haunt him.

RIP Heath.

This is so incredibly sad. My heart goes out to Michelle and Matilda.

 

[taylor1293]

How terribly sad , he was so young.

 

[DMickey28]

Seriously????? I really like him.

So sad ... as much as I don't want it to be anything I really hope it's not drugs.

Someone please post a link to the Olsen twin rumor........I can't find it anywhere.

 

[eclectics]

Shocking news and terribly sad. He had his whole career ahead of him.

 

[Aisling]

Three women and a man just got out of a cab and were let into the apt.

Perezhilton.com has the Olsen twin rumour, but I can't get the site to work so I can't link it.

Heath struck me as a troubled soul.

Interesting you should say this, as he struck me the same way.
