      She's stupid!
      Okay, lets get this straight so everyone can't be so suprised. Okay almost everyone in hollywood are on drugs but some get caught because there under the microscope by the poparzzi and there people don't watch over them the way there suppose too.

      Remember there was an article about Jennifer Aniston model boyfriend who broke up with her because he couldn't be in hollywood because of the environment that was around because he was an ex user?

      So what makes you guys believe that Jennifer, Brad, Angelina, Courtney, and other A list stars are not drug users either? They just conceal it better. At one time I think they all have tried it and either quit or are still on it but they only do it from time to time. Some people are weaker than others.

      i totally agree …let his family grieve in peace… i love you perez for not posting the pic of the body bag

    16. mary says – reply to this


      16

      if you agree with her (as do i) please stop posting all these horrible "gossip" stories about who he was dating, what drugs he did or did not do, etc!!!!

    17. niakia says – reply to this


      17

      I couldn't agree with this more…thank you for posting it, Perez!

    18. Dee says – reply to this

      Cont:

      There lifes are so fast pace and it's unfortunate that they need to do drugs just to keep going and unfortunately they become an addict. And to tell you the truth what makes perez think he's any better? Those shows he has on VH1 he looks like he's on cracked as well. He has baggy eyes and looks worn out himself. And he attends these events and parties to, so maybe he's doing something as well but he's not in the public eye as much as other hollywood stars. And probably can hide it better. If anything he is a follower as well and only time will tell before he gets bad press and it blows up major.
      It sucks they don't get as much sleep and they feel they need these drugs to give them that pick me up. And it sucks that it eats @ there bodies and it takes there lives @ such a young age but they know what there getting into and they choose to party and take drugs.
      But who are we to judge. Everyone has dealt with there own problems in the same way or different. But for the people's who died from this addiction lets just let them R.I.P now and move on.
      And for you people who have never dealt with anything like this in your life while good for you and hope your kids don't become addicts because it's everyone you go. I don't wish this addiction on anyone not even my worse enemy.

      Perez, You are the biggest FUCKING hypocrite I've ever seen. Maybe you've changed your mind about the way you have vilified Heath. Maybe you see the slander and been wrong too many times. If that is the case, stand up and say you're sorry. STAND UP AND SAY YOU'RE SORRY.

      Well said, Star. His family deserves respect in this trying time.

      RIP Heath

    34. Dina says – reply to this


      34

      finally someone with a brain…thank you Star for writing what i've been thinking for the past 2 days!…i couldnt believe it when i turned on the news last night and saw people standing on top of scaffolding just so they could see a body bag being wheeled from the building…they should all be ashamed………may heath rest in peace, may his family somehow find peace in this matter, and that his daughter grow up knowing all the wonderful things her father accomplished in his short life.

      36

      Although, to date, i do not think i have ever agreed with a single word Star Jones has ever uttered….i agree with EVERY SINGLE ONE in this article. Bravo Star. Well said. I wish the media would take this advis to heart when covering so many things.
      Just my oppinion.

      I agree! I wasn't just an actor he was a man with a family and friends. let them grieve and come to terms with what has happen. he has a daughter that is only 2 years old and has to somehow understand that her daddy is gone. its tragic and needs to be left at that

    46. mindy says – reply to this


      46

      thank you star jones!! I'm so sick of media making ASSumptions about things they know nothing about. My heart goes out to Heath Ledgers family and friends. My heart breaks for his little girl.

    47. rip heath says – reply to this


      47

      I agree with her….its just all so incredibly sad, i never met the guy, but everytime i see video and pictures of him now i get all choked up….the media needs to stop making assumptions abt his death…its not right, and its unfair, he was a good soul, a loving dad, a incredibly talented person…we dont know why he died…and even when we finally do, there will never be good enuff reason..he wasnt a junkie, and he wasnt an addict, and even if he were, it wouldnt have made him any less missed…. :o (

    51. Jennifer says – reply to this


      51

      I agree with every word she said. It's so sad, I was about to cry, I live in NYC not that far from where he lived and I'm pretty sure it's crazy down there and I feel so bad. R.I.P heath you are now in a better place with god. Everyone knows it's better then being here, your being protected now. God bless him and his family, loved ones, friends && to all of his fans who truly adored him. =( He will be deeply missed.

    65. Dweezil says – reply to this


      65

      Star sums it up perfectly. I also want to give Perez props for not putting the pictures of Michelle and Matilda on his website at least someone in this business has a heart!! As a mom of 2 kids I cannot imagine the task that Michelle Williams has in front of her. My heart goes out to Michelle, Matilda and Heaths family.

      We should all be embarrassed….this is a sad time for the family and the least we can do is to give them some space

    68. Hizzo says – reply to this


      68

      I like that you agree, Perez. Very good of you, although what Star mentions in her writing is exactly what you have been doing–providing all of the gossip as to why this wonderful actor died. Perhaps wait until all of the facts are available and then provide the details, unlike all of the other media outlets.

    69. jdub says – reply to this


      69

      if you agree so much u fat bastard why do u have his picture and a rumour posted 2 posts down… dueschbag

    70. Tats says – reply to this


      70

      I agree with Star. I can't believe I just typed that sentence. We can all agree that Heath's death is sad and hard to comprehend. Let's just step back and give the deceased and his family the same kind of respect we would want for ourselves.

    71. Heather Brooks says – reply to this


      71

      Right Perez. You'd post the pap photo of Michelle in a heartbeat.

      I agree with Perez & Star. Please, leave this grieving family alone. I can't believe they couldn't respect Michelle enough to let her be upon her arrival back in NY. Perez I commend you for not posting the photos!

    86. Katie says – reply to this


      86

      completely agree with what she said. And I think the people making jokes about his death (i.e. John Gibson) are just as bad as the paparazzi taking pictures of the dead body and the now fatherless child. What goes around comes around. When John dies, someone else will be there to joke about his life as well…

    87. KATELYN says – reply to this


      87

      I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE POINTS GIVEN IN STAR;S EDITORIAL. LET ALL NEWS AND TABLOIDS STOP IN TELLING OVER AND OVER THE TRAGIC AND UNTIMELY LOSS OF A WELL-KNOWN AND WELL-DESIRED ACTOR.

      MAY HE NOW REST IN PEACE AND HE SEE WHAT LOVE PEOPLE HAD FOR HIM AND HOW MANY PEOPLE HE TOUCHED.

    88. Suzanne says – reply to this


      88

      You know, I've never seen the masses so protective of anyone before. We all felt we knew this man because he was something so very special. The way his fans and others have been standing up for his honor/memory is truly a testiment that he would have been touched by I'm sure. Hopefully his family is touched by the respect being shown as well. They need our support right now.

    89. Yasmine says – reply to this


      89

      i agree with her as well
      really this paparazzi thing is getting very much out of hand. its pathetic how far these ppl will go for money shots. they have no respect for whoever they are exploiting
      really when i seen on the news his body being taken away, i couldnt believe how many ppl were flocked to see -taking pictures and video. have some respect. really this past year has gotten really bad with the whole paparazzi issue. they are going way to far.
      makes me sick

      AFUCKINGMEN, thank you sooo much for posting this (I could care less about who its coming from) but it says everything that needs to be realized about this tragic situation. I personally have experienced a loss so parallel to Michelle's loss in Heath. It's hard in a way that no words or explaining will every make others understand. It so sad that this is what our society has come to. I just wish everyone could realize the rawness of the situation and leave it be for now. Thanks Perez (you really are a person who cares, it sucks you're not able to show it more often.

      94

      I agree with her. This whole thing is sick, these people need to leave them alone. It's hard enough grieving but try doing it with paparazzi around. That poor family. I just feel so deeply for them. Man what a shocking death. I don't know about you all but I feel very sad for the family, friends and fans of Heath, but most of all I feel horrible for his daughter!

    97. JPB says – reply to this


      97

      Wow. Brilliantly stated Star!…I agree that the media is nuts in this situation and they just need to back off and be respectful to Heath and his family. The 20 dollar bill stuff was just outa control. It is the WORST feeling in the world when someone dies…heart crushing and life changing… and for his family to have to experience grief in the public eye with rumors swirling around, and people trying to get pictures of their sad faces…it has to make it just about unbearable. My heart goes out to them.

      99

      while i agree with starzilla….
      i mean she has some pretty accurate details of the paparazzi;s hanging out in front of heath's apt… eg, how his body was removed, how michelle williams came home… etc.. which can only mean that she too has seen these photos, or videos like we all have!!!!

      if you agree then why do you partake in all the same bull shit.. i am an avid fan but don't be a hypocrite
