Is Keith Ledger the same as Heath Ledger, who is mentioned in the article?

For the record, I know little of the actor. I just wanted to beat OTOH. Oh, and I didn't want Czarjorge to have to wait for the news. I know he's a fan.

It looks like he died from prescription drugs. The ones your GP gives you. Not the one the minority/poor kid down the street sells you. I guess drugs do hurt you, cc.

Looks like? Is everything always what it "looks like"?

C'mon Peel.

btw - who was that other young troubled Hollywood male actor who died recently?

Brad Renfro (25) was the other one that just died after getting clean and sober. Ledger was found dead in bed with a bottle of sleeping pills next to him by the maid. Autopsy was pending in the last article I read, could be accidental overdose, suicide, bad reaction or something else (like sleep apnea). He'd just finished filming the latest Batman, he played the Joker which is perfect given his mouth/smile...he had a perfect joker grin.

Sad to see him go he was really nice eye candy with a wicked accent. Sad

No need to worry. I only post obits of people that I have some long-standing knowledge of, and Heath Ledger sort of slipped under my radar, even though I've apparently seem him in a number of movies. Brokeback Mountain was pretty over-rated in my opinion, and I can't even really distinguish his character from the other guy's.

Poor dude seems to have melted down with he and his wife split. Developed a heroin habit. Left behind a young daughter. I guess no matter how cool your job is, no matter how much cash you got, it is all down to the basics.

I thought he was nothing less than outstanding in Brokeback. It was a ballsy career move that was paying off.

What are dugs and whatmany...what drugs are you on now? I'm not a spelling nazi, just tired of your continued uniformed stupidity. Do some research about weed and then you'll stop posting that DUGS are bad. Do you have a 3rd grade reading level and can you use a search function?? Yes coke, herion, alcohol and cigarettes are bad dugs, weed isn't, like you keep posting on every thread.

Too bad he died but what is really sad is that I flipped on Good Morning America and it was the lead story. What a sad statement about society when the possible overdose/suicide of an actor is the main story when the world economy is crashing.

So, because of a post with obvious typos, I'm now uniformly stupid?

The guy dies from an apparent drug overdose, yet I am the one that is stupid.

Got 'cha. Wink

Actually, I would probably include weed in there as well. If you're going to quote me or put words into my mouth, at least be big enough to use the /quote function.

As well spelling Nazi, you may just want to consider how to type Heroin before you start casting out writing tips. Wink
