goodnight Heath. Rest in peace.
please be wrong please be a mistake please be wrong
omg i can't believe this…im in total shock.. this is soooooo sad . his poor daughter
Awwww!!!
Okay, let's get it straight, people, okay? Michelle Phillips (from The Mamas And The Papas) is *NOT* his ex-girlfriend… it's Michelle Williams (from Dawson's Creek). Okay? Okay!
Have a super-fantastic happy day.
I saw on the News that the apartment he was found in was Mary-Kate Olsens.
"I read the news today, oh boy / About a lucky man who made the grade, / And though the news was rather sad / Well I just had to laugh, / I mean, Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment? how low can you go?" (etc. etc.) (Lennon/McCartney/me)
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
So SAD. Fav Aussie!
Generation RX, So sad
Goddamnit! He was going to be my future ex-husband! What a terrible waste.
This is so sad. Rest in peace, Heath.
RIP
this is so sad and his career was going places
So sad. Thort it was a sick joke. Money and fame clearly don't equal happiness. I feel for his family
wow…i first fell for Heath in "10 Things I Hate About You"! He stole my heart in "The Patriot"! I was so looking forward to "Batman:The Black Knight," now i don't know how I could watch it!!! So sad!! Sexxxy Heath, rest in peace, your fan, Scarlett.
REST IN PEACE, HEATH. YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED!
Suicide.
mad me sick to my stomache. when i read the name i thought "no thats not who i think it is…is it???" very sad… : (
Yeah. I know right! That's the same same bitch that read Brad REDfro died without hesitation and such seriousness. This shit is getting to be too much. Re: Clementine –
made me sick to my stomache. when i read the name i thought "no thats not who i think it is…is it???" very sad… : (
LIZ U CAN FUCK OFF, HAVE A HEART U B****! Its on the news coz hes famous u D*** Just coz u lead a sad and heartless life. cock
why was he in Marykate olsen's appartment?! he has a place in nyc so why was he there supposedly she is still not back from sundance or she went to LA after>>.
just when dark knight is coming out too, shame
why are you the last to report this?
This is so shocking…I found out at 8:45 and it's only just sinking in.
RIP Heath Ledger
Just a shocking waste of a young man. Australia will mourn you mate.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
poor michelle and matilda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if any celebrity committed suicide, I would have expected it to be Britney–not Heath!
is it true that he was found in Mary-Kate's apartment??
Cry me a river. The guy did the easy and selfish thing if he in fact committed suicide. Yeah, poor guy. He punked out, plain and simple. I have no sympathy for people who do this to themselves. It's the people they leave behind that I feel sorry for.
People who do drugs are just stupid assholes. Wake the fuck up.
NO. this is seriously insaneeeee
i loved him in 10 things I hate about you and then everything else……..
i cant believe this… its so sad. he was amazing.
tragic so so sad.
RIP
but thank god light is off britney im sure she will do something "shocking" to divert attention to herself again,
I can't help but be moved by this. My life was spared. I was ignorant. I was irresponsible. 15 pills a day. $2000 a month.
The problem with these pills is that people don't quite understand the actual addiction that comes along with them. I didn't. Actually, prior to my addiction, I had never filled a painkiller prescription. This time I decided I would and finished the cycle. By the end of that cycle, my body (not my mind) was physically reliant on these pills. I kept taking more. and more. and more.
The withdrawls were horrible. The pain. Cold chills. Headaches. Throwing up.
I had never been addicted to anything and my naivety cost me nine months of my life.
Although it's a bit hypocritical for me to say this, i'm going to anyway. Be AWARE and INFORMED of what you're taking and the effects. There really is a reason these pills have warning labels.
Although my seizure erased a lot of memories and prevents me from remember pretty much anything, it also saved my life.
Keep yourself in check.
Heath Ledger was found dead in SoHo today. Although the official cause hasn't been released, pills were found near his bed. I can't believe anything other than what I know: and that is when the facts are out, i'm positive it will be some sort of pain killer overdose.
The reason why this is close to me is because two days ago was the one-year anniversary of a seizure that almost killed me. A seizure caused by pain pills.
RIP

According to the New York Times, Ledger was found naked and unconscious with pills strewn all around him in an apartment owned by actress Mary-Kate Olsen
Re: DumbAssCelebrities – SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH !!!!!
I FOR ONE CANNOT JUDGE HIM OR ANYONE THAT TAKE THEIR OWN LIVES, YOU KNOW WHY ? BECAUSE I AM IN NO POSITION TO JUDGE SOMEONE , AND NEITHER DO YOU , YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON IN THEIR HEAD , HONESTLY SOMETIMES I THINK THAT PEOPLE THAT COMMIT SUICIDE WHETHER IT SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE BEING SELFFISH , MAYBE THEY SAID TO THEMSELVES I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE IN THIS FUCKED UP WORLD BECAUSE OF ASSHOLES LIKE YOU
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT HA? YOU HEARTLESS PIECE OF SHIT , AND ALMOST EVERYDAY I WISH DOUCHE BAGS LIKE YOU DIE FIRST INSTEAD OF TALENTED DEPRESSED HUMAN BEING LIKE HEATH OR BRAD RENFRO , PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF SHOULD BE THE ONES TO DIE , AND THEN MAYBE, JUST MAYBE THIS WORLD WILL BE A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE
Police officials initially said that the apartment was owned by the actress Mary-Kate Olsen. They said they believed Ms. Olsen, 21, was in California and that Mr. Ledger had been living in her apartment. Ms. Olsen attended the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, for the premiere of “The Wackness,” a film in which she stars with the actor Ben Kingsley. It was not clear where she went after the film screening.
THAT IS VERY SAD
i hope they do not find his death as a result to drugs. if they do i hope that this is a lesson learned. we have heard of brittany's out of control drinking and drug use, watched amy winehouse smoking crack, and now a potential 2nd death to drug abuse…please do not foget that we just lost brad renfro to possible drug use!
drugs are very dangerous!
This is so tremendously sad. Sad for his daughter who will never know him. Sad for his family. Sad for all of the fans who adored him. Sad all the way around.
No! I cannot believe it! With the new Batman-movie coming… He would be bigger than ever after The Dark Knight. Rest in peace. I Love you!
It was in Mary Kate Olsen's appartment!
MOTHERFUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
He's was in Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment when he died. Too bad it wasn't her instead.
Have none of you ever heard of a sub-let? That's right… someone can own an apartment or a house and then let it out to someone else. This is extremely common practice in New York and other large metropolitan areas. If the apartment truly belongs to MK Olsen, that's not a big deal at all… it is incidental. In fact, how many of you rent a house or an apartment? Subletting an apartment is no different. MK would have been his landlord, essentially. But some sources are reporting that it wasn't her apartment after all. Guess we should all just wait and see how this story unfolds.
omg I was reading a friend's facebook status update and thats how I found out about this…… its surprisingly sad for me to see. if it is drugs… there are really only 3 options if someone is abusing drugs, jails, institutions, and death. Its sad that death seems to be the option for many actors.
So sad!! Prayers go out to his family! we'll miss you Heath!
WOW. I am so shocked, this is really unexpected. very very sad.
This is so sad! Why couldn't it of been Shitney instead?
What a waste. God Bless Him
"Pills were found in the vicinity of the bed," police spokesman Paul Browne told CNN.
"This is being looked at as a possible overdose, but that is not confirmed yet."
Police later said the pills "appear to be over the counter" SLEEPING medication.
Wow. This is shocking. I'm just at work–bored out of my mind. Decided to check out all the fuss over this site–to find out that Heath Ledger is dead. I loved all the movied he came in. I had the largest crush on him when I want….younger… I didn't even know he had a daughter. Why on gods green earth would he even dabble in drugs. Unless it was for something–an illness.
Was he even sick? Did he need medication. Or was this just recreational drugs. Once you have child there should be a drive for you to live a better life. People need to not only take care of their children, but take care of themselves, because if your not around to look after your child–who will?
Rest In Peace Heath
SO SO SAD RIP HEATH BLESS MICHELLE AND MATILDA AND HEATH FAMILY SO SAD
Well, the media are saying that it probably was sleeping pills. AND that he was found in Mary Kate Olsen's apartment. Don't know what of it to believe…
NO!! NO NO NO NO NOOOOOO!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
I am in shock, I feel bad for his little girl not having her daddy.
NOOOOOOOO
WHAT???? I just heard, but I thought it was a prank! Im SHOCKED! My heart just sank! It had to be an accident.
:( That really does make me upset. He was so good looking.
When I saw this on my local news channels website it made me sick to my stomach. No matter what is said about them in the media, these are people who have dedicated their lives to not only doing something they love but entertaining the masses. My heart breaks for Michelle and their daughter Matilda. Even though they split up there is still love there because they made a child together and little Matilda will never get to know the man her father was. God speed Heath, you will be remembered always.
Oxy Contin strikes again
If he had any love for his child whats so ever their's no way he could OD on purpose, to commit such a selfish act would be uncomprehensable.
Life wasnt meant to be easy that's why their is such a wonderful reward waiting for us when we finish this life.
I really feel for his little girl!
Heath lived at 421 BROOME STREET 5A
HEY IT SUCKS!……BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PLAY A ROLE LIKE HE PLAYED IN BAREBACK…MEANT "BROKEBACK MOUNTIAN". PEOPLE SHOULD OF SEEN THIS COMING!
He was found at MK olsen's apartment!
im so sad.
his daughters only 2 aswel :/
Is it true that its Mary Kate Olsens Apartment?
this is insaneeee
I dont think he did it on purpose it just goes to show that some peoples body's just can not digest all drugs. I'm sad for his family. I can only imagine his last thought was his baby girl : ( RIP Heath.
wow, i am shocked.
R.I.P Heath,
that poor kid.
that is ashame i feel real bad for that little girl of his
they said its mk`s apt
THAT IS SOO CRAZY… I FEEL DANG SHITTY
I'd say Adnan is pissed as fuck! His big moment on TV - ruined by Heaths death!
Lainey ran a blind item on her blog months ago that the break-up was caused by Heath's constant cheating, that he was a well-known hound-dawg around women, hell, he just hooked up with Lindsay-skank. yucko!
soooooooooo sad. god bless all his family and friends, what a sad thing to face.
I'm in shock!
FOX NEWS IS NOW CLAIMING IT IS NOT MARY KATE'S APARTMENT. I'll bet it is, but she wired a loooooot of cash over to the press to keep her name out of it. Gotta go… got texts coming in left and right.
thats shocking. e! said he died in mk olsen's apartment. was that a typo?
Re: so what – Wow shut the fuck up, no kidding. Heath was such an amazing actor and what seemed like a good man. This is crazyyyy.He was in some of my favorite movies. If Britney isn't a good enough example, this just goes to show what fame can do to a person. My prayers go out to his daughter, family, and friends R.I.P.
SOOOO SAD!!!! wwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
aww omg i srsly cried.
this is sooo sad.
RIP
I cried. For real. This is awful.
Re: SICK N TIRED OF SEEING PEOPLE WITH TALENT DYING FROM DRUGS –
you're such a fucking idiot.
addiction is addiction, if anything its worse if you have money, because you dont have the impetus of poverty to clean up.
and yeah, you know. sex and money solves everything. what kind of shallow logic is that?
besides that, it was probably a suicide and not just an everyday o'd
you're just a bitter asshole.
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD
I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!
its got to be a bad joke.
OMG!
I just heard it over here in Germany. This is sooo damn sad!
He was one of my fav. Acters, this is not how he deserved to die!
Yeppers, coverup. Now it's NOT MK-O's apt. Right, whatever.
best news i heard all day. one less millionare paying taxes for you broke asses to have welfare checks pay your internet. that's why all of you are sad. you've lost someone close… an extra food stamp.
I GUESS BRITNEY ISNT THE MOST FUCKED UP PERSON OUT THERE!
