Brittany Murphy's Husband Wants To Turn A Profit Off Her Death!

So gross!

Brittany Murphy's husband Simon Monjack is hosting an event to launch the Brittany Murphy Foundation which is dedicated to arts education for children.

But he is suggesting enormous amounts for attendees at $1,000 per head and $10,000 for corporations.

Insiders believe Monjack just wants to make money. "He's gotten away with so much. He thinks he can get away with this," says one source.

"Everyone thinks it's very tacky that he is making it so much about money," says another.

Tacky is putting it nicely — we think it's despicable!

      let her rest in peace!

      He reminds me of Artie Lange.A fat drunk.



    3. 3

      He is a fat slob. She probably starved ’cause she couldn't get any food away from him or her mother (have you seen those two? yikes - call Jenny Craig or someone).

      RIP, beautiful Brittany. I hope that someone uses your name for a true charitable foundation that will help others and spread the bright light that you shined.

      this guy is such a scumbag. he can yammer away all he wants about how fabulous he is and how he isn't a conman but actions speak much louder than words. i really hope somebody is watching his every slithery move and that somehow, somewhere, law enforcement will snap a trap on him.

      This guy is a piece of garbage



    7. 7

      he is so gross looking…he all fat and sweaty and greasy looking…EWWW!!! maybe ppl can donate to him to get him some fresh water and a couple bars of soap!

      If the money is going to Charity whats the problem??



    9. 9

      The Jacksons are doing the exact same thing off of Michael's death.



    10. 10

      Wait a sec. I'm no fan of the guy, but if he's wanting/trying to establish a foundation in his wife's memory, how can you allege that he's wanting to profit from her death? What EVIDENCE do you have of that, you asshole? You DO understand slander and defamation of character, right? Honestly, Mario, this is completely irresponsible of you. A lousy $1K per person and $10K per corporation is CHUMP CHANGE to those in the entertainment industry. I challenge you to back up this story with documentation … or retract it until you have it. No doubt you won't have the balls to let this comment through either, you chicken shit.



    11. 11

      what kind of moron is writing for this website now, or should I say cutting and pasting. have you people gone out and tried to get both sides of the story? Have you tried asking him why?



    12. 12

      Everyday there are like 6 things about this poor girl..it's over…I don't want to keep seeing the same 2 pics of her..she's gone and by giving this guy so much air time…he's getting what he wants. So let her rest in peace and who cares about her husband…he was nobody before and he's a nobody now.

      well, these charities can't do anything without money, so it has to be about the money. As long as he is not in charge of writing checks, so what? tacky? I worked for YEARS in not for profits and one of the problems was that people/celebs were more interested in the parties. One that I did work for, my charity received very little money, but everyone was going on about what a great event it was. GREAT! They had fun! but the people running it, spent to much money on everything that there was very little left over for what the event was for. BIG no no in not for profits. IT IS ABOUT THE MONEY MARIO. Hollywood loves a big party, and for the readers here, we cannot afford $1000 but YOU can and it is just a drop in the bucket for even d listers. As long as this charity is legit, don't attack unless you have proof. AND MOST OF YOUR HOLLYWOOD BUDDIES DO TAKE HOSTING FEES FOR THESE EVENTS. UNFORTUNATELY. Very few do anything for nothing.



    14. 14

      Clearly, the $$ is to LAUNCH the charity foundation for arts education!! Get a LIFE Perez!!!! That is NOT so much money for a charity event!!!



    15. 15

      Re: La Garse – WELL SAID!!!! I agree 100% !



    16. 16

      To start off, I did know Brittany Murphy. She and her family are good friends of mine. I did get an Invite of the event, and it does NOT state that you have to donate anything to attend. It says "If you WANT to donate to the BM foundation, the suggested donation is 1000 per person, and 10,000 per corporation" You have no idea what your talking about, and your website is FULL of lies.



    17. 17

      hell alot cheaper than what you rip off of your advertisers



    18. 18

      He is an effing douche!!

    19. @v@ says – reply to this


      19

      The money would be for the new foundation. I think it's a nice idea if the foundations takes pains to show it's on the up and up.



    20. 20

      Re: La Garse – It is not uncommon for people arranging/hosting these events to charge an administration fee etc.. and have the profits be counted after their cut. There's the bucks for him. I've seen it done before.Personal take….very likely a money maker.No thanks.



    21. 21

      She was so beautiful.



    22. 22

      Real classy guy. The only thing that would be tacky for his is to dig her up and have her star in Clueless 2: As If! A la Weekend at Bernie's



    23. 23

      So basically just another made up story based on these "sources". I am sure the guy has plenty of money and isn't going to all this trouble of organizing a foundation in her name and a fundraising dinner to rip people off… This one has to take the medal for lamest post of the week??? Still two days to go I guess…



    24. 24

      Too many naive people out there, makes it easy for guys like this.
      Re: Shannon03Re: La GarseRe: hateliarsRe: stacestace
      He is a well documented con artist, people such as yourselves are why he is successful at it.



    25. 25

      And…what exactly would the "Britney Murphy Foundation" do??



    26. 26

      monjack is shady as hell



    27. 27

      Of course he is geez…. let that poor girl rest in peace!!!!



    28. 28

      He should simply marry Brittany's mother, therefore gain access to the estate. It's done all the time.



    29. 29

      Isn't that just what the Jackson family has done and continues to do–make money on the death or the child molester?? How about condemning them Perrsuck..



    30. 30

      Awww, Brittney… still can't believe she's gone. By the by, EWWWW, is that her husband? He's nasty!



    31. 31

      What do you expect form a jew.



    32. 32

      does ARTIE LANGE have a brother??



    33. 33

      STFU #16 - *SKUMjackal* already m"Em"tioned the $1k-$10k "donation" which is obviously going into *his* fata$$ pocket. And *he* HAS NO "friends" so #16… GTFO. Scamming Sharon & *SCAM-jackA$$* are almost completely BROKE too. BTW, why TF did they bury My Britt at NIGHT? Oh, they could only afford a "budget" casket for Her and didn't want anyone to see it in broad daylight. UMMA CRYIN' 4 Mah Babe B Britt.. N UMMA DESTROY *u SKUM-jackalA$$*… COUNT ON *IT*.



    34. 34

      First off-this happens a lot. He has every right. He's not profiting off her death. It takes money to hold charities and to have a foundation. The money is going to the cost and formation of this charity. Perez-you are a douchebag.



    35. 35

      RIP,Brittany! Anyone trying to make money off of her death needs to be shot!
      This is the same thing as MJ's "father"! What a bunch of ignorant fucking leeches!



    36. 36

      Doubt that anyone will give him the time of day without Brittnay being here.



    37. 37

      this is horrible and he should be stopped!
