Heath Ledger found dead this afternoon of an apparent suicide or overdose in a NYC apartment.

He was 28 years old and is survived by a 2-year old daughter, Matilda Rose.

Genuinely sad to hear that.

Only 28 ffs.



What a shame..

[Seriously]

How

hurm


He didn't strike me as the suicidal type. Not that I knew him or anything.

[gulliver]

Was it definitley suicide? Or did mary kate forget to clean away her stash?

[Seriously]

I am assuming.

either suicide or overdose is what it looks like though,

[gulliver]

Coincidentely, he didnt strike me as drug taker either.

[AngelBaby]

Goddamn NY Times, I should've learned by now not to trust anything I read from them.

Apparently, the apartment was NOT owned by Mary-Kate Olsen.

[gulliver]

I presume everything will be just tabloid-esque speculation for the next couple of days anway.

I hope he's good as the Joker in the new Batman movie, it'd be nice if his final major performance is a memorable one.

According to many (including Christopher Nolan), Heath's rendition of The Joker is right up there with Nicholson's show-stealing turn as the iconic comic villain.

[smash]

There's an overwhelming amount of people talking about this, to death. There just isn't that much to discuss, world!

I think it's because it is such a shock. When Britney dies this year, it'll be a surprise to no one. Heath Ledger's passing ... just is jaw dropping for some reason.
