Just my opinion, yo.
Like it or not, celebrities get more attention in life and death, then most regular folk.

Shocking and sad....


Now we all know celebrity deaths occur in 3's. Any bets on the next two? I'm thinking Larry King is getting up there.... and someone from the music scene. Probably someone fat....

She was super thin and sickly looking, not much of a shocker. Gotta be drugs.

I hope Larry King lives forever. Or at least when he dies they seamlessly transition a robot into his position so his show can continue.

She is probably better known as the voice of Luanne in King of the Hill.

I was reading somewhere that her and her husband had drug problems and she had lost quite a few roles in the last few years because of it.

That's really sad. I loved her in Clueless and Uptown Girls with Dakota Fanning. Hate hearing stuff like this. It's surprising so many people aspire to celebrity considering they all seem to go down in flames...

It is truly tasteless to speculate like this in a public forum. Just my opinion. RIP Brittany.

People sometimes feel closer to the person they watch on TV than those they meet in real life. It is a weird thing but when you watch someone basically grow up in front of your eyes in different shows, movies, concerts, sporting events, or whatever it may be.

It would be like Kiprusoff dying unexpectedly, would you not care because he is a "foreigner" or didn't fight for his country?

I knew of her, but it really didn't strike me as to who she was until it was mentioned she starred along Ashton Kutcher in that movie 'Just Married' when they go to Europe for their honeymoon. That's definitely what I most remember her for.

I'm still in disbelief he has a show. His interviews are terrible, he's generally incoherent and asks stupid questions. His time has past.
