The Olsen Connection
Filed under: Australiastic > Heath Ledger > Olsen Twins
The New York Times has precise new details about the death of Heath Ledger and how the whole Olsen Twins chatter got started.
They report:
"According to the police, at about 12:30 p.m., a housekeeper, Teresa Solomon, arrived at the apartment, at 421 Broome Street in SoHo, to do household chores. At about 1 p.m., she went into Mr. Ledger’s bedroom to change a light bulb in an adjacent bathroom; she found him on the bed face down, with the sheet pulled up to his shoulders, and heard him snoring.
A masseuse, Diana Wolozin, arrived to give Mr. Ledger a massage at about 2:45 p.m. At 3 p.m., after Mr. Ledger did not emerge from his bedroom, with the door closed, the masseuse called him on his cellphone but got no answer. She saw him laying in bed. She took a massage table out of the closet and began to set it up near his bed. She then went over to him and shook him, but got no response. Using his cellphone, she used a speed-dial button to call Mary-Kate Olsen in California to seek her guidance, knowing Ms. Olsen to be a friend of Mr. Ledger’s. She told Ms. Olsen that Mr. Ledger was unconscious. Ms. Olsen said she would call some private security people she knew in New York, and hung up. Ms. Wolozin again shook Mr. Ledger, called Ms. Olsen a second time, and said she believed the situation was grave and would call 911.
Ms. Wolozin called 911 at 3:26 p.m. to say that Mr. Ledger was not breathing. The call occurred less than 15 minutes since she had first seen him in bed and only a few moments after the first call to Ms. Olsen. The 911 operator urged Ms. Wolozin to try to revive Mr. Ledger, but Ms. Wolozin’s efforts were not successful.
Emergency medical workers arrived at 3:33 p.m., at almost exactly the same moment as a private security guard summoned by Ms. Olsen. The medical workers moved his body to the floor and then used a defibrillator and CPR, to no avail. Mr. Ledger was pronounced dead at 3:36 p.m. By that point, two other private security guards summoned by Ms. Olsen had arrived, as had police officers.
The police said that all five witnesses — Ms. Solomon, the housekeeper; Ms. Wolozin, the masseuse; and the three private security guards summoned by Ms. Olsen — were fully cooperating with the authorities."

i think it's a bit odd that she would have called MKO instead of immediately contacting the police..
shes a good girl. I really like her alot.
that's pretty interesting! kind-a weird though that masseuse would call an olsen 1st?
this is just so sad. heath ledger was an amazing actor. rip.
i enjoyed your work so much and the industry will not be the same without you. its just shocking….
Wow, and people say Perez isn't first with the news. PRETTY DAMN NEW NEWS TO ME!
The first impulse is to cover it up with a private security firm rather than to save him? That sucks.
still cant believe he's dead!
My Mom told you nada, zip, nothing diane. My Mom passed away.
oh HEATH WE MISS U ….
LINDSAY LOHAN, OLSEN , ALL THESE HOES GOT HIM INTO DRUG NO DOUBT
RIP
fascinating and awfully sad…
She shook him and got no response so she called Mary-Kate Olsen????? WHAT??? That's insane. That can't be right. That just sounds to retarted to be true!
A little bit, but I still love her.
aren't massage therapists trained in CPR?couldn't she have tried to revive him? not blaming her but, WTF???
Is it just me or does that sounds fishy?
RIP
WOW and she's a masseuse? WHAT THE FUCK, IS SHE TOTALLY CLUELESS. WHY DON'T YOU CALL YOUR MOMMA FOR FURTHER INTRUCTIONS BITCH!
SHE SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS DEATH. WHAT A FUCKING MORON CALLS ONE OF THESE SKANKY WHORES FOR ADVISE? AN OLSEN? CALL BRITNEY YOU STUPID BITCH!!!!!!

Oh for christ sake… Right you find a guy non responsive on the bed/floor or where ever… So you call the Olsen twins? That seriously would not of been my first choice. Maybe should of been better saving her time and calling 911 right away?
because the OLSENS SECURITY is trained in CPR, and im pretty sure her NY apartment is close to Heaths apartment, so the housekeeper or whatever probably knew the olsens, they probably visited Heath..
How disturbing!!! Why in the world would this woman call someone in CA when a person right in front of her in NY is in need of medical attention??? Makes you wonder if Heath Ledger could have been saved had she not WASTED 15 minutes waiting for the Olsen's security guy before calling 911. Dumb dumb dumb….
this is very tragic but the coverage must stop … I saw it is going to be on nancy grace and larry king live and magazine covers and it is such a sad thing and in respect for the families involved the media should just let up
The whole situation is so sad
yeah seriously what's up with her clothes nowadays
RIP What a loss! Only the good die young, right? I LOVE PEREZ!!
Who ever heard of calling a security guard when someone is unconscious lying face down on the floor? It sounds like he had just recently passed away before the masseuse arrived. Regardless of the details, it's a tragic ending. Life is so fragile.
…..the white race never ceases to amaze me. Note the racist, hateful comments about Lil Waynes recent drug arrest….if a talent black actor/musician is found to be a victim of substance abuse which is RARE in comparison to those of white celebrities….it is funny how people say "thats how black people are, worthless n****er, etc"…yet when a white star except britney falls victim to drug overdose and dies it's tragic and they will be missed and people respect their lives. How do some of you sleep at night knowing you live in such a biased, racist society? I've loved Brad Renfro since my pre-adolescence and i've been a Heath fan for a couple years now. Both tragic wastes of lives. They both left behind children whose love wasnt strong enough to overcome the demons.
looks like she was on her knees giving a blow job!!! GOOD GIRL!!!
WOW and she's a masseuse? WHAT THE FUCK, IS SHE TOTALLY CLUELESS. WHY DON'T YOU CALL YOUR MOMMA FOR FURTHER INTRUCTIONS BITCH!

Re: more questions – he was TOO HEAVY to move from what i heard. The olsens Secuirty guard is this big black dude that i've seen around them alot…i dont think the itty bitty massuese could put him on the ground..which is what is required in cpr.
as a massage therapist in another state, i want to massage famous people and call up the olsens on the phone just to chat. what a kake job.
Media Blames Heath Ledger, Refuses to Examine Dangers of the Pharmaceuticals Found Beside His Body

Big Pharma is killing us… does it take this tragedy to make you pay attention ????????????
Hey Olsen girl, Steven Tyler called and wants his scarves back.
Why the fuck would this idiot call a celebrity instead of 911 in the first damn place. Fucking ridiculous!
what a strange series of events. RIP heath
right.
"oh my god, i think he's dead..WE'LL CALL THE OLSEN TWINS."
stupid reaction,
for all we know he could have lived if she'd called 911 right away.
have some respect for them both.
it doesn't matter if you're first or not.
heath ledger was a fox.

Wow! That answers a lot of questions. Very interesting. Can you imagine entering a super star's bedroom with him "sleeping" in the bed while you're setting up your massage table…thinking to yourself "I don't want to wake him…I guess I'm on the clock…the housekeeper said he was asleep…he sure is quiet, but I have another appointment, etc." And then, actually trying to wake him only to discover that all the time you've been looking at him, thinking he was breathing while "sleeping", he's been lying there dead. That's heavy.
that sounds like a crock to me. what rational person would find someone unconscious and call their friend? unless there was a quick omg there is a grand of blow right here what do i do with it moment. and even then it would take a few for paramedics to get there. Didn't anna nicole smiths 'friends' and staff do this little dance of calling a million people before calling 911?
why in the name of god would you call an olsen???????
That be fucked up…
two mistakes, hard to say if this would have made a difference in the outcome.
1. calling an olsen, what in fuck can SHE do? she isnt even in the same state as HL.
and she is not a relative,
2. not calling 911 right away
the whole shit is shady.
wth
hefa
i bet she called in blackwater to replace him with a robot.
For fucks sake! you ring paramedics first!!!!! what is with people… fucking morons
WHAT KIND OF A RETARD CALLS AN OLSEN TWIN BEFORE 911.
im crying now. if only the housekeeper had realized…
sad sad sad
The correct term is Massage Therapist.
We are at college for almost 2 years!
We are all fed up with the media using the word Masseuse!
Im sure that poor Therapist is too.
Hope you can help to clear this up Perez!
Love Ya!
This is the second pic that I've seen where an Olsen has dirty knees. Look at the pic of her I think during Sundance. WTF? We need an investigator on this!
Curioser and curioser. Sounds like he had an acknowledged drug problem - and the damage limitation swung into action ahead of getting him help - thats a really fucked up way to live. Maybe his people should get a hold of Brit Brit and La Lohan.
since when do they only try and revieve people for 3 minutes even if he was really dead they would have worked on him for at least an hour. And why the fuck was she in the room for a solid 20 mins before noticing that he had no life in him. If you have ever seen a dead person you know the dead within 5 minutes they lose there color and look waxy.
What a couple… the masseuse calls MKO when she realizes that Heath is uncoscious instead of calling 911 and MKO calls security guards instead of paramedics???? What for??? Congrats to your intelligence, girls!
THis just sounds so retarded… why is it in HOLLYWOOD they all PANIC before calling 9-1-1?!!! THey have to call other celebs or body guards ( i.e. ANNA NICOLE SMITH) and then it's too late. Celebs are people too.. you seem them NOT BREATHING.. dont call another celeb a body guard or all that phone tage shit.. jeezzzzz MAYBE HE COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED YOU DUMB ASS masseuse!!!! ITS A GOOD THING THEY DIDNT CALL HIS AGENT OR PUBLIST FIRST TOO!!!
Fight, you find a guy face down in bed unconscious and the first person you call is MK Olsen? Is this a joke? What about the AMBULANCE?
to all of you who are questioning why she called mary-kate first… i had this same situation first with my grandma died, but i knew she was dead. the fist thing in my mind was to call my aunt, because she knew my grandma well and i didnnt know what to do. im sure it was a scary situation for her, who know maybe she's never seen a dead body before? now thats a thought.
sounds like a clue board. a little sketchy, perez!
Does anyone else find it weird that she called her before 911?
I smell scandal.
This is absolutely ridiculous to me. 911 should have been called first and foremost. Period, the end. What the hell would calling a friend (MKO), not to mention who is across the country, do? That could have been a grave mistake on Ms. Wolozin's part. Terrible.
she has dirty knees……hmmmm?
