They can't even save all the front page for his picture, we still gotta know that Miley got a makeover and Eddie Murphey is kind of a douche.

How tragic. He was so young and such a promising young actor… it will be weird to see him in the new Batman movie as the Joker, now that he is gone.

This is very sudden and sad. My heart goes out to all of Heath's friends and family, especially his 2 year old daughter, Matilda.

this guy will be REALLY missed.
christine says – reply to this

48

They should have put a cuter picture of Heath on the cover. He was a hottie! How sad he's gone.
AD says – reply to this

49

It just extremely sad what has happened to him, but the sadest thing of all is that his daughter will never truly get to know him. The people who knew him will always have the memories, but his little girl will only know what others tell her.
Homolicious says – reply to this

WOW, that was quick. These mags must have pics and stories ready to go when someone dies.

I HAVENT BEEN THIS SAD SINCE PRINCESS DIANA DIED………….WHAT A WONDERFUL PERSON HEATH WAS, SO SWEET AND GENUINE, (YOU COULD SEE IT IN HIS EYES) HEATH WAS ONE OF THE RARE ACTORS I ACTUALLY ENJOYED WATCHING, HE GAVE PASSIONATELY TO HIS ROLES AND WAS SO AUTHENTIC WITH HIS NATURAL TALENTS. IAM GLAD HE LEFT A BEAUTIFUL LEGACY BEHIND IN MATILDA, WHO IS THE SPITTING IMAGE OF HEATH, MY HEART GOES OUT TO ALL HIS FAMILY HE WILL BE GREATLY GREATLY MISSED…………………..

They couldn't find a better picture of him??>???
Lauren says – reply to this

60

I'm still really upset about this - he was my favourite.

Part of me really hopes that it was an overdose and not an intentional suicide. I can't imagine him being so selfish and taking his own life. This horrible episode should serve as a reminder to all these celebrities with drug abuse issues that we are all blood and bones. Life is fragile and no one is immortal.

HEY #41:
THERE's a BIG difference between being FIRST & FORTY-FIRST… go back to school, dumbass!
cate says – reply to this

64

This is what I fucking hate about the media……an absolute tragedy has occured and they have to sensationalise it. "Drawn to excess" fuck off….if ANYONE famous died suddenly like this the media would try and work some fantasy story into it…..Overdose doesnt neccessarily mean it was intentional..it was a tragic accident…a combo of pneumonia (ie low immune system) and a few too many sleeping pills. Stop trying to turn it into some sordid story. Accidents happen…. imagine his poor family knowing that people are reading this trash and thinking that their son was suicidal and messed up. Have some respect…..whatever happened to true journalism…reporting THE FACTS. RIP HEATH LEDGER

It doesn't matter how rich or poor everyone ends up in a black body bag. Life is fragile and if you don't be careful your life will end tragically early. My heart goes to family and friends.

Geezus People you didn't have a better pic of this fine man in your archives? I mean seriously, something with a little facial hair? I can't believe it's almost been 24 hours since he left!! How does MKO fit into all of this?! She is NEVER going to be able to rent or sell that place now… Why was he naked? Its JUST like Marilyn and Dorothy Dandridge they always find them naked in the bedroom or the bathroom!! Why???

Wow! This website is so much better when you click on the top of the page and "kick Britney into the Pit of Death"! Try it…it's soooo nice NOT to have to see her fug face or read about her dumb-cunt antics. Just remember, if you log out and then back onto the website, you have to kick her fat ass into the Pit again or you'll be forced to see her and read about her again. THIS IS BRILLIANT!

oh heath - you were the reason i watched brokeback mountain in the first place. Tisk tisk… just proves that fame and money don't by you happiness… however, heroin is definitely a temp fix to your problems of lonliness. GG Allen was a pussy too!

I feel so bad for his lil daugter , and i feel bad for him. Such a talented man turning to drugs…I feel the media is going to exploit him , and i also hate the ppl who talked bad at him and made fun of him after Brokeback to be all like " he was such a good actor"…Just because someone dies doesnt take back what a ass you were in the first place.

'Forgive me
if you, my beloved,
my love, have died

All the leaves,
will fall on my breasts.

It will rain on my soul,
All day, all night.

My feet will want to march,
to where you are sleeping.

but I must go on living.'

I truly loved him as a person and as an actor. There was something genuine in his eyes. when i heard this i was devastated! Rest in Peace! We all loved him as you can all tell from all these comments. This really may be one of this biggest losses hollywood will every encounter. My heart goes out to his family and beautiful Matlida.

97

I don't understand why people (especially celebs) do drugs - especially when you're a parent!! This is really upsetting. Now his little girl will grow up without a dad because he was selfish. This whole thing is sad but he was an adult and it was selfish of him to do drugs knowing the harm they can do to him; and how his child could wind up growing up with no memory of him.

98

Helena Christensen is a toxic, narcissistic, unhappy soul in the body of a goddess. She has a history of sleeping w/OPP & sucking them in with drugs + kinky sex. Sad that Heath got caught in her web & wouldn't be surprised if she was his hookup for drugs.

From all appearances he was a great guy to his coworkers, family & friends. RIP Heath Ledger.
sarj says – reply to this

99

dont say it was drugs seeing as how it was said that it was sleeping pills, accedental and an autopsy wasnt even completed untill people started spreading rumers about it being drugs. The sleeping pills were found scatered around his body, that was the only evidence that might make someone suspect it was drugs untill someone actually comes out and proves it (A RELIABLE SOURCE) i dont think its wise to talk about it being drugs, only because he did have a family, friends , and a respectable life, no need trashing it. He was a good man.

Someone with super talent, such at Heath Ledger, deserve to get the front pages of magazines when they die. Only fat gay gossipers get buried in the back pages where most people don't look and nobody cares.
