Brittany Murphy just died...

Too bad.  She was hilarious in Drop Dead Gorgeous & I liked her other roles as well.

Wonderful in Clueless too

Yes, I know about type I, but she was a type II diabetic, which I find odd since it is fairly uncommon in younger people, but especially so if they are thin. She either had bad genes or did some funky shit to her body.

I love "stories" like these!    If one ever thinks one is gaining a spark of respect for shows like The Early Show, all one has to do is wait and one will see stuff like this.
