One Bit Of Good News
Filed under: Australiastic > Heath LedgerAn earlier report from CBS News in New York that illegal drugs and narcotics residue on a $20 bill were found in the home of deceased actor Heath Ledger has turned out to be untrue.
The Associated Press now reports:
"A rolled-up $20 bill was found near Heath Ledger's body, though no illegal drugs were found in his apartment, police said Wednesday.
The bill would be taken to a lab for testing, though no visible drug residue was found on it, police said."

so sad..his poor daughter.
Stupid reporters. They should be getting there fucking facts straight before sending out rumors.
maybe if you verify your facts BEFORE you post them, half of your posts wouldn't be corrections
IM SORRY BUT BRITNEY SHOULD HAVE WENT INSTEAD OF HEATH!
i still cant belive he is gone!!!
Oh yeah, right.
I am SO annoyed at the coverage on this. It is nothing but shady bullshit reporting. How dare they turn this man who was never an attention seeker into a hunted man in his death? Allow the real facts to come out and THEN lets talk about it. UNTIL then, do not report any unconfirmed rumors as facts. REPORT them as UNCONFIRMED SPECULATION and then stop feeding the frenzy until the FACTS are in.
The truth is, this man was TOO young to die, and very talented, and very real. This is just friggin sad.
sheesh. why can't reporters wait to report the correct news rather than being the first to report wrong news. idiots.
:(
so sad
good!!
GOOD!
he deserves to be remembered in the best light
5thish
why couldnt britney have died!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
heathie my dear, I will always heart you

XOXOXO
Chelsea
first so sad
Drugs or not he is dead and that's sad
Re: j –
Amen to that
that's good to know, but can we really trust the police?
he was probably going to use the money to tip the masseuse.
he was probably going to use the money to tip the masseuse.

what a relief
i knew it
1st?
When is anyone going to question Gemma Ward? When was she last with him. Was that her $20 bill?
What would testing the $20 bill do anyway? I thought anywhere between 40-80% of bills in the us have traces of cocaine residue on them anyway…
maybe he snorted his sleeping pills
DUDE Y DONT YOU WAIT UNTIL THE TOX XOMES BACK AND STOP SPREADING TRASH ABOUT THE MAN!
exactly. two good dudes in one week? why can't this happen to paris, britney, or lindsay?????????
Why doesn't everyone go back and read the previous posts Perez wrote about Heath Ledger before he died. (look at starseeker on the left) All he did was talk shit about him and call him ugly, scary, and boring. NOW he is talking about how this is SO SAD. You make money off people's deaths. I hope you feel bad about how you talk shit about everyone and I hope when you die, Perez, there is a parade in the streets. I will lead it.
stop making shit up you fat fuck! heath just passed away yesterday and you're stillmaking bullshit assumptions. let him go out with dignity like every other fucking celeb gossip page. you're the only one that continues to run your mouth and talk shit! when your time comes..(hopefully soon)..i will shit on your grave.
you're a fucking dick for even posting it if it weren't true.
spreading rumors about a dead person???
YOU'VE STOOPED TO A NEW LOW-
FUCKING PRICK.
BRAD RENFRO WAS BURIED YESTERDAY. DOES ANYONE CARE? HE HAS A CHILD THAT IS LEFT FATHERLESS TOO. BESIDES, HEATH HAD WEIRD HAIR.
they should just stop dragging his name through the mud and let him rest in peace.
RIP HEATH LEDGER
aparenlt he was also suffering pneumonia and harsh insomnia!
Well said, LiLi! I definately agree!
no one gives a shit about iraqis dying by their thousands or people dying of AIDS in africa, but as soon as some junkie cokeheaded hollywood motherfucker tops himself, the whole world mourns like he is the pope or something
you bastards can all go fuck yourselves. no human life is more valuable than another, even if theyre famous. none of you knew him yet, youre all acting like he was your best friend. bitches
I love gossip!
The Sun website has a clip of Jack Nicholson saying "I warned him" on hearing that it was an overdose.
I'd like to see the news report stories that are definitely confirmed before they slander someone who can not defend themselves. All that should have been said about Heath is that he was found deceased and more news would be available upon confirmed reports by police. Not just start saying every little rumor that surfaces.
Get your shit together Perez
Re: bebop – Re: bebop – You are funny dude!
That's extremely good news!@!!
This is the very reason that you need to check your sources before you post your "news". Being the first to post the news doesn't really matter if what you are posting is BS. Be more respectful to him and to his family, and make sure you have your info correct before you post it.
that is some good news!!!
Blah, poor Heath. Surrounded by so much bullshit speculation.
That is why you should KEEP YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT PEREZ!!!!!! You should wait for FACTS before reporting LIES YOU BIG UGLY ASS GUINEA PIG
Re: & –
yea okay haters!! this is perez hilton.com he did not go to you and say hey click on my page … honey you came yourself. you dont like it click the back page on this bitch
Cute heath took too much ambien.. it is a dangerous medication
People who take too much Ambien may become excessively sleepy or even go into a light coma. The symptoms of overdose are more severe if the person is also taking other drugs that depress the central nervous system. Some cases of multiple overdoses have been fatal.
When abused, Ambien tablets are taken orally, crushed and then snorted, or dissolved in water and "cooked" for intravenous injection.
Overdose of Ambien may include:
sleepiness
confusion
dizziness
clumsiness
severe nausea or vomiting
staggering
difficult or slow breathing
slowed heart rate
unconsciousness
the stupid media… its one thing to print shifty things on perezhilton or some other gossip column but the NEWS should get its shit straight before printing or saying anything
Re: LILI – Amen lili x2
So tragic! "We will meet you at the end of lifes last day."
I LOVE PEREZ!!
"one bit of good new" — he is still dead at 28, i really dont think it matters all that much what the news is, it is not "good". The reporting of this tragic event is disgusting. It is from hounding reporters turning up at his parents home for the exclusive sound bit of their sadness that his parents found out he had died…. absolutely disgusting. The rumours are disgusting too.
When I first heard Heath had died, I thought "What the hell could he have died from?" Anything drug-related was the farthest thing from my mind. Thus, the fact remains that he kept his addiction (if any) hidden very well. He wasn't one of those guys in Hollywood that you looked at and thought "Oh man, that guy is living life in the fast lane." And he shouldn't be remembered in that sense, unlike many other stars who are famous for their addictions. He was a talented, down to earth guy, with problems just like everyone else. Remember him that way.
he had a weak heart syncope maybe look it up thousands of people have slow heartbeats and heart trouble he just had a weak heart
Re: LILI –
I absolutely agree. The reporting has been awful. This man may have been an actor but that doesn't mean responsible journalism gets tossed out the window. And why do we really need to know what happened? Please give him the privacy in death that he craved in life.
Re: LILI –
Insert Clapping Here>>>>>>>>
why else would you have a rolled up $20? common sense people. that being said, God bless him and his family.
LIKE I SAID IN PREVIOUS POSTS ABOUT HEATH…….THE MEDIA NEEDS TO SHUT THE FUCK UP UNTIL THE PROFESSIONALS FINISH THEIR JOBS!!!
HIS POOR FAMILY IS MORNING THE LOSS OF THEIR SON, FRIEND, FATHER….AND DOES NOT NEED TO DEAL WITH ALLIGATIONS FROM THE MEDIA THAT THEIR SON, FREIND, FATHER WAS A DRUG ADDICT THAT PURPOSELY OVER DOSED…..IMAGINE THIS HAPPENING TO SOMEONE YOU LOVE. i AM DISGUSTED AT THE MEDIA AND MY HEART ACHES FOR HEATH'S FAMILY….R.I.P. HEATH & GOD BLESS MATILDA
so that just means that he didn't sniff coke or anything illegal he sniffed LEGAL DRUGS that were probably prescribed to him
oh course there were no drugs, chubby. he had to take them to OD. nice work professor

Fred Phelps is reported to protest at his funeral.
Hey, FU for even posting any shit like that. Jesus Christ. Wait until the facts come out before you debase a dead man. Idiot.
this is soo sad a little girl will grow up without knowing her father
Some guy said why are we all mourning when people die everyday or something…
Because he was an insanely talented actor! that is why he is famous.
Not for being in the news 24/7 like amy winehouse, gaining more publicity than she deserves and turning into a crackhead.
R.I.P. Heath.
You will be missed.
xx
Rest in peace my love! The world just got poorer
i hope they still release the dark as planned
no illegal substances……..yeah, right!
omg what's with all the false rumours? why can't the media stop with the lies and let the man rest in peace, they have no hearts and seem to forget that there are families involved who could read shit like this
It sickens me how all these fake sources arise all of a sudden and try to disparage Heath's reputation. He was anything but a junkie and no one will ever be able to taint his name, because the people who were lucky enough to know him will always confirm that he was a kind-hearted and life-loving individual. I guess he really didn't belong in Hollywood because the last thing he wanted was to be seen as a heartthrob who exploited his good looks to achieve fame. He wasn't after publicity and will always be remembered as a spiritual and wonderful individual. I don't think any of us realize yet the impact of his death on our culture…he was an extremely unique artist, who never tried to conform to standards set by the "Hollywood society". It is so heartbreaking to me that various media are taking advantage of Heath's tragic passing to feed their audiences with rumors in order to manipulate their ratings. We live in a terrible, TERRIBLE world and they should be ashamed of making up untrue stories, which will reach Heath's loved ones and devastate them even more…if that is even possible. My heart aches for Heath's whole family, his daughter and her mom, Michelle Williams. Stay strong
Heath's soulful spirit will never be forgotten. He was just an extraordinarly amazing person and I will truly miss him. Rest in peace, Heath :*(
That's cold comfort but thanks for picking the story up, Perez. I am so depressed and I don't even *know* him; I just like his movies …
you're an asshole…that's what you get for posting shit that's not true….trying to stir something up when someone has just lost their life. get over yourself.
OMFG, enough already. I wish these sites would wait to post stuff until it is official - I'm so sick of reading rumors just to have it change 15 minutes later. Whatever
Stop fueling these rumors and aqusations on drugs! Wait until all of the facts come in. This just hurts your credibility when you keep posting false infomation.
Looks like you jumped the gun, Perez. Does "being the first one to report something" mean so much to you that you will print ANYTHING & EVERYTHING you hear?? You've hit an all time low
this is soo stupid. why would anyone say there were illegal drugs if there weren't !????? stop trying to tarnish this man in his death! get the truth and the facts and wait for the autopsy… until then don't say anything!
Re: Lily T. –
WONDERFULLY PUT LILY!
Re: LILI – I agree 100% with you Lili!!!!
and all this crap about Brittany should have gone instead of him, what is wrong with you people?? She is a human, why would you wish death on anyone?? Disgusting.
Okay Let me just say that I LIKE heath ledger. From what I remember, he was pretty quiet, Not attention seeking like some other blond bimbo-esque celebs that shall remain nameless. And I do hate the fact that the media going on and on about this mains death. I mean seriously, I've heard more rumors about this guys death than the number of hours hes actually been dead. But for those of you are ssaying "why cant they leave it alone"
well, the job of a magazine is to sell. and I promise, " Heath ledger died peacefully in his new york apt" is not going to sell as many copies as "Heather ledger died due to possible drug over dose. "
It sux, and exploitation of a mans death is kind of a trashy way to make money.
Heath was actually talented. Why couldn't someone with absolutely NO TALENT in Hollywood, like Sean Kingston, die? His fat-ass wouldn't be missed at all!
Re: Lily T. – Too true, think of his family as if him dyin at the age of 28 isnt heartbreaking enough for them
Talk about yellow journalism! AP should be ashamed of themselves. This is total bullshit that his family and friends have to deal w/ this or even address it!
I love you Perez but you need to verify stuff like this before you post.
Actually, a journalist with access to the AP wire (me, among others, probably) was the one who pointed this out to Perez about an hour ago.
We're not ALL headline-hungry pieces of gossip spinning garbage. I for one am sick and tired of all these bullshit assumptions and rushes to judgment.
I agree that reporters should get their facts straight but its pretty safe to assume that the rolled up $20 was used for snorting something. A rolled up dollar bill is a dead give away that drugs were being used, residue or not. Now that doesnt mean he overdosed, but he was snorting something. I mean do you really think heath Ledger tips his masseuse $20? And rolls is it up 1st? Uhhh, no, he ws doing drugs.
ABOUT TiME you get you FACTS right! Sorry for being mean, but i hate to see a GOOD name go to SHame BY YOU!
"no one gives a shit about iraqis dying by their thousands or people dying of AIDS in africa, but as soon as some junkie cokeheaded hollywood motherfucker tops himself, the whole world mourns like he is the pope or something
you bastards can all go fuck yourselves. no human life is more valuable than another, even if theyre famous. none of you knew him yet, youre all acting like he was your best friend. bitches"
They don't give a shit. All shallow hypocritical cunts.
1.) I can't think of any other reason to have a rolled bill than to snort something. He probably snorted his ambien
2.) Stop hating on Perez. If we as a society didn't feed on this stuff like we were starving and going to die tomorrow, there would be no need. That is exactly what is wrong with the "war on drugs" You will never, ever win from a supply side. You have to stop the demand, and I'll be the first to admit I feed the demand.
3.) They probably will never tell what really happened
4.) stop hating on perez. I love Perez and most of what he reports turns out to be true! Nobody gets it right all the time~ Look at the election in 04~~!~
reading these posts makes me laugh. learn to spell and work on the grammar before writing such serious shit and telling perez to fuck off. he is making more money than you and isn't that what america is all about? his job is GOSSIP… which can be fact or fiction.
I have to agree, he was a man who did not seek publicity and did nothing but try to be a good man and father to his child and it is horrible that he is being talked about in this way!!!! It makes me so sad that a man like that is gone when an anorexic crazy person using cocaine without any care and refusing to get help is still here on this planet. He had so much to live for and now his little girl is left without a father, so sad!!
uh, like what the FUCK else would a rolled up twenty be for?
live in the public eye, die in the public eye, bitches.
death must be awesome. it's the one time in your life when people don't hassle you and have nothing but nice things to say about you.
"no one gives a shit about iraqis dying by their thousands or people dying of AIDS in africa, but as soon as some junkie cokeheaded hollywood motherfucker tops himself, the whole world mourns like he is the pope or something
you bastards can all go fuck yourselves. no human life is more valuable than another, even if theyre famous. none of you knew him yet, youre all acting like he was your best friend. bitches"
They don't give a shit. All shallow hypocritical cunts.
And fast at censorship too! Deleted my "freedom of expression", warranted by the US consitution, in no time. This is my second post.
You must feel like such a dick for posting something that wasn't true. But then again you must feel like that everyday because almost everything you post is untrue anyway so it's a typical day for your bitch ass! You are a piece of shit. Lets hope that when someone you care about dies unexpectedly they'll be treated with a little more respect.
I can only imagine what Michelle Williams must be going through. Yes they were no longer together, but she probably still really cared for him and she is probably in pain for her daughter's sake!!
It's sad how people can't wait to start running rumors just to sell magazines…
Re: bebop –
Whatever, it's still such a tragedy, and i'm still gonna feel sad about it whether i knew him or not.
If my neighbour up the street died at 28 and had a 2 year old daughter, i'd still feel sad. In fact, if any random fucker in the world in that situation died, i'd still feel sad. It's called compassion, and maybe some of you should show a bit?
If you didn't like Heath Ledger, why are you reading this? If you don't like Perez Hilton why are you reading this?
There's a big 'X' in the top corner of the page, maybe some of you should use it sometimes?
RIP Heath. I miss you so much and hope you are at peace.
