New York Post Is Also Reporting That Natasha Richardson IS Brain Dead
Filed under: Anglophilia > Natasha Richardson
Sadly, there are many conflicting reports about the current state of actress Natasha Richardson following her serious skiing accident in Canada on Monday.
Her family has yet to release a statement, but TMZ is reporting that she is suffering from brain swelling and is not brain dead.
Time Out New York is insisting that Richardson is brain dead, according to family sources.
Now, the New York Post is also reporting that Natasha is brain dead. They say: "Actress Natasha Richardson is brain dead, after falling in a ski accident in Canada, friends told The Post today."
So sad.

So Sad
Why don't you just STFU on this subject, Perez?! You've already made so many mistakes. Leave it up to the REAL journalists.
shit you asshole, drop it already, you keep fucking this story up and dont check your sources, nice spin though, blame it on someone else.
How about this for a story, PH fucks LG
SO MANY CONFLICTING REPORTS…AND YOU WILL POST EVERY ONE OF THEM TIL YOU GET IT RIGHT.
JUST FUCKING STOP ALREADY!
Still doesn't change the fact that you leaped before you looked,I mean really donkey kong getting news from time out is like…well getting news from you.
.
.
.
THE HYPOCRITICAL FAIRY SHOULD REINSTATE HARRY.
Perez stop posting anything until it is confirmed you fucking retard.
chickens… with your heads cut off… all of you. embarassing…
That may well be Perez but still does not justify you leaving her RIP notice up on your page, even with a line through the text.
You are one of the main sources causing the misleading information.
REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE REMOVE THE RIP NOTICE
I don't think anyone knows except for those involved and everyone should stop speculating. I hope it comes out to prove all of you wrong so you look like idiots.
Assholes.
WHO CARES! Move on!
um… hate to say it..but she IS dead.
-shakes head- The great decline of American journalism. Murdoch must be having a field day. I bet the attorneys are drafting right now. Can't wait.
So terrible…. but which one is it? brain dead or not?
I hope not….
i'm getting soooo confused.
YAHOO IS REPORT SHE HAS BRAIN SWELLING AND THATS BEEN UP SINCE YOU'RE SHE DEAD POST DUMB ASS GOD YOU'RE THE WORST BLOGGER !
Oh, yes that's right. Its everyone's story but yours. You have nothing to report about, just saying what everyone else said.
Man. up. queen.
does anyone reading these comments know how to hack into a site?…someone needs to prevent Perez from logging in and positing anything until he knows something definite…he is looking like a douche by reporting something different every 15 minutes…please someone stop him!!!!!!!!
Your still a putz mario
sorry, so is this fact then?
so many conflicting reports.
regardless, extremely tragic. nothing but positive vibes towards the family.
thats sad.
if her brain is swelling and she currently isn't brain dead, she most likely will be soon.
soo sad. Get better, Natasha ! ♥
And should we believe the New York Post?!?!
might want to change the pages adverts next to this…
Why are you taking so long to suck it up and apologize for your horrible posting? Now you're going to claim that everything was all right with what you posted, taken from the "faulty and erroneous" TONY site? You're fucking ridiculous and you need to take down the contact information for Mike and Lindsay if you're not going to man-up to it yourself.
is she or is she not??
Let's all hope that this isn't true! So sad.
pEREZ…Just leave this story alone until it appears in CNN.
OMG Perez, give it up. You suck and we all know it. Now go back to fucking Teddy and leave the gossip news to TMZ!
THE NEW YORK POST IS A PIECE OF SHIT
I REALLY HOPE YOU ARE WRONG YET AGAIN BECAUSE IF NOT THIS IS SO SAD.
Until we receive a statement from the FAMILY. DO NOT REPORT ANYMORE!! Anyone can make up anything!! This is a person! Show some respect!
Are you kidding me? New York post cites "friends" as their source. Could these be the same friends over at TONY? Put your shovel down and quit digging fuckface. You're worried about whether you were right while the rest of us are worried about whether this woman pulls through.
Don't trip..we don't believe a fucking thing you write anyways.
Just stop posting about it untill you actually know.
Sad Terrible Tragedy. She was a class act.
Why would you go on TMZ's word. They are about as lowly as the National Enquirer. Why don't you leave it alone until we hear from the families themselves!
i DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS…GUESS I GOTTA GOOGLE HER. BUT STILL SAD!
I think it is a little early to pronounce someone brain dead already from this accident so let's all sit back and wait for the hospital and her husband to make the announcement as to her condition. She has young teenage sons remember, this is so unfair to them.
Perez take a 3 day break from reporting anything further on this story. you obviously can't get it right and instead of taking responsibility you blame others for giving you mis-information.
Why don't you not post things like she's dead or brain dead until you find out for sure. Is it more important to you that you be first to report rather than accurate?
What a nightmare for the family.
and this what I mean by Save the drama for ur mamma! Medicine is amazing now and I believe she will be overcome this… a bit of rehab possibly but she can survive this and most likely will! sending my prayers!
I'm talking about the public ambulance chasing, as well as the sad situation.
Re: mrs_robert_pattinson –
Eh I wouldn't go as far as to say that. Suffering a head injury and not getting a CT scan is risky on its own. While it sounds like it's a condition that will no doubt lead to death, brain swelling occurs more often than people would think. Your risk of swelling stemming from an injury (say a car accident) goes up depending on the type of medication you take IE blood thinners and BP Medicine. It has to do with blood vessels. Yes, it can lead to death. But many individuals recover from it.
If anything can be learned from this.. even if you feel "ok" after falling or being in an accident.. GET CHECKED OUT. Nikki Taylor is another example!
Re: zombie_hands – yes perez shut the fuck up about it until you can report the facts you are really pissing everyone off today
OMG! SHUT UP!
Don't say shit till you get it right, this is fucked up. Just shut the hell up Perez, you don't have good sources.
That's sad, who would've thought that pretty lady on Parent Trap would have this happen to her? What a tragedy.
Re: guilty of being white – Very true-this is Karma chewing mario's asshole out for banning Harry!
The post is never wrong?? LOL Perez, you certainly shot yourself in the foot on this one. Just back off now! PLease!
everyone that keeps commenting that 'this is so wrong, get your facts straight'
Perez is only reporting what he knows or has heard, for our advantage. if you don't want to read what he has to say, then don't.
You all should just STFU. How was Perez supposed to know that it was false information? He is just reporting what he hears/reads like the rest of em. At least he reposted to say his source was wrong and that different people are saying different things. Perez is a $$ blogging $$ genius $$. period. exclamation point.
leave the poor lady alone, and let her family be. all these conflicting reports are awful.
Per the BBC, she's NOT dead at this time.
Stuff it until you know what the true facts are. It will all come out tomorrow.
THE NY POST IS JUST ANOTHER RAG…..ONLY YOU WOULD CITE THEM AS A CREDIBLE SOURCE, PIGEZ…..Those idiots probably are using Pigez as their source, now…rotfl…..It is so sad that this woman and her family are having to monitor lieing bastards, like Pigez, now….they should be left alone and allowed to pray and care for their ailing family member…..Pigez is a piece of shit!
well, the "family source" is a real ass. I'm sure the other family members wanted some privacy before making any major announcements good or bad.
Re: RedWingsFan – He banned Harry? How did he do that? I thought this whole site was freedom of speech! There have been worse that him on here. LettyB, Andy27, and numerous others. Wow, I am shocked!
You'd be more credible if the headline read Wino was brain dead.
I DONT THINK ANYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO REPORT ANYTHINGS ABOUT ANYONE WHO'S DYING/DEAD UNTIL THE SPOUSE,OR CLOSEST IMMEDIATE FAMILY RELEASES IT TO THE PRESS. ITS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING THE WAY THE MEDIA ANNOUNCES THESE SORTS OF THINGS. GOODEY IS ANOTHER PRIME EXAMPLE, HER DEATH SHOULD BE PRIVATE YET EVERYONES POSTING PICTURES OF HER PALE, BALD FACE EVERYWHERE JUST WAITING TO REPORT HER DEATH. HAVE SOME DAMN RESPECT. ALL YOU SEE IS NUMBERS OF READERS, WHILE THEIR FAMILY ARE SEEING A FUTURE W/OUT A SPOUSE, A MOTHER, A SISTER, A LOVED ONE. ITS SO INHUMANE WHAT YOU PEOPLE DO. YOU HAVE NO SHAME.
And YET the Huffington post has just reported that the time out and NY Post reports are untrue according to TMZ….. somebody has this ALL wrong….
Re: lilmissveevee – Good day lilmissveeve, what a splendid day, isn't it? I believe it is my misfortune to tell you that you got the Nicky Taylor things wrong; her near fatal injury was to her liver. The last time I checked that was located just slightly below the neck. Aside from that little bit of misinformation, good post. Perez is still the god of assholes, though.
And the only one brain dead is…
I'm here to report Perez himself has passed away.
Oops, he's just brain dead, my mistake.
Er oh now he has brain swelling? hmmmm
Re: __bethie –
I agree, Bethie!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, and the New York Post is so reputible. When CNN/ABC/NBC/CBS/ Entertainment Tonight or E broadcasts it, then let me know.
Can you say LAW SUIT!!!!
I MAKE A SUGGESTION THAT EVERBODY ON HERE EMAIL THOSE PEOPLE WHO STARTED USING PEREZ HILTON'S BLOG LIKE THEY THINK IT'S SOMETHING SPECIAL, LIKE TV SHOWS AND MAGAZINES ETC. I DON'T THINK THEY'D THINK IT'S SO SPECIAL IF THEY SEE EVERYONE THINKS HE'S A STINKING MORON AND A FUCKTARD
Foxnews just reported that she is brain dead as well and being flown back to New York and that when she gets there she will be removed from life support.
all news media are reporting that she is brain dead and going to be flown back to new york city and taken off life support.
Re: meia123 – Actually, he stepped in an ant pile and had to rush to the local drug store for some aloe vera. Its actually the venom from the several ant bites thats making his legs swell, his head was already that big.
Re: __bethie – #52 RIGHT… and people on here complaining are the FIRST to complain that he is LATE with the news…. That someone else had the story first and that he is late. What do you people want? Damned if he does and DAMNED if he doesn't…. Ahhhhhhhh
FOX NEWS JUST REPORTED HER BRAIN DEAD
so sad…
Re: kickazzosx – #60… HAHAHAHA…. now THAT that was funny…
Oh nice, my comment was deleted..Thanks you big fat pig. You sure like to censor people..You should censor your own dumb ass.
I'll say it again but I guess only piggy can "relay" what news sources and the such are saying…
Foxnews just reported on this issue.. Don't know how true it is..Not my job nor my hobby to have to check facts (harhar)..so start watching the news instead of reading piggys posts on this subject.
that's so sad
fox news is reporting the same thing. but yea…everyone's right. get it right the first time.
Why are you guys freaking out? Perez is a blogger, not a news source by any means. If you don't like it. Then maybe you should surf cnn.com instead. BYE!
Re: Poop Nugget – He was just on a talk show recently, where he said he censored NO-ONE, and people were free to write what they want on his blog, and how he never, never took it personally. That is why I was shocked that someone mentioned he got banned from here. So i guess you can now say he is a FLAT OUT LIAR!
THEY SHOULD GET THAT NEUROSURGEON THAT CUBA GOODING JR PLAYED IN THAT MOVIE..DR. BEN CARSON!
Why does everyone come on Perez's site to bash Perez? If you don't like him or you're just going to be a douche, STOP FUCKING COMING HERE!
Perez, I know you're trying hard to get to the bottom of this. Keep doing what you do best.
Like you haven't shown enought stupidity mario…stop making any
statements…we will go to reliable news sources for the truth now.
What a parasitic twat you are…any piece of unreliable crap that
comes your way you post without waiting for an actual release
from her husband or the like.
You listen to rags…she is injured..she is dead…she is brain dead..
…she is brain swollen…fucking give it a rest you fucking hack.
The bottom line is that she, her doctors and her husband know what
is her status and nobody else.
What a life sucking vacuum you are. How about her family that may
hear thru friends who visit your site this stuff? How about that impact
you douche!
You are worse than rags like the enquirer…at least they we all know
they are guessing. Loser douche nitwit jerk tool.
That's sad and all but you never hear of this happening to black folk. Come on. Whenever you hear about someone possibly being brain dead from a skiing accident or someone nearly dying after a shark attack - 99.9% of the time they are Caucasian. You never see black people doing that dumb shit then not expecting something to happen.
the ny post is barely one step above a tabloid - they are pure trash, so don't rely on them for information. they just want to sell papers.
Oh Lord—I really hope this isnt true!!!! Prayers to her and her friends and fam right now!!!!
Re: RedWingsFan – Re: LizardKinG – Re: _Alice_ – Hey Perez, check this out, you being back Harry and BBD and I am sure we will be nicer to you
This is ridicolous… stop with the speculation and let's wait for tomorrow when the official statement will be released! It's sooo disgusting to read every single report on this, sooo sensasionalist and so wrong! We are talking about someone's life and shouldn't be taking this lightly or reported with a cold look to it! Shut it until further and real news!
According to the news from a minute ago, here in MontrĂ©al, she has been transfered to NY this afternoon. This doesn't sound good at all… The family should talk to the press tomorrow. All my best to her and to her family…
WTF PEREZ..I think you're the one who's brain dead. Hopefully the family isn't aware of crap that's being said about their loved one. To think those two young boys may lose their mother just breaks my heart. Take the advice of the other bloggers and leave this story alone until you can get it right. How would you like it if this was someone in your family???
Re: smh@ppl – If you substitute "drive by" for "ski accident", you could say the same thing about white people.
I am confused as fuck right now. First she was just injured, then brain dead, then dead, then brain dead again, then just brain swelling, then was about to be taken off life support and now she's brain dead again. Dude, just shut the hell up until her camp comments on it. People are spreading all kinds of rumors and unnecessary shit just to get media attention. No matter if she's alive, dead, has permanent or not permanent brain damage..her family and friends are suffering right now. Let them be until they want to come forth to the media (I doubt they ever will want to, but they'll have to eventually). Stop fueling the fire Perez.
Re: Granny Panties –
My reference to Niki Taylor was in regards to feeling "okay" as opposed to getting checked out on an emergent basis. As I understand it, she was wearing a seatbelt for the crash, but because she didn't sustain any "obvious injuries" she felt she was unharmed. She later began complaining of issues and possibly collapsed at the scene? That's when she was wheeled in and they discovered the extent of her internal injuries. The other people in the vehicle weren't injured near to the degree she was.
WTF
SKIING SUXS
Perez, your journalism skills suck. Shame on you for your sloppy reporting! I expected better from you!
Boy, life is so short. Live it to the fullest because you never know when your turn is up.
She is fine, this is all stupidity distraction tactics from the media.
this is soo sad. im prayin.
