Wiki Update - Heath Ledger

Heath Ledger page on Wikipedia

I was so looking forward to his portrayal of The Joker in the forthcoming Batman film, now in post. There was also a project he was set to do, which will now never be completed.

Loose threads. All those loose threads. Too many to have been a suicide. Way too many.

Accident? Misadventure?

We'll have to wait for the post mortem, but it's a hammer blow.

Someone with expendable income, time to spare, pressure to maintain an image in Hollywood and not enough people to tell him 'no' doesn't seem like the type that'd just maybe turn to drugs? I dunno, I'm kinda cynical about these things.

But money, time and image aren't enough reasons to assume that it could be that. There are plenty of poor people who work their asses off and have no image to maintain that are addicts. I'm cynical about a lot of things, too. And like I told Fiat, we're not going to know for certain until and IF they come out and say why.

Yes, of course there are poor drug addicts. There are also many, many, MANY Hollywood party people who are addicted to a metric ass-ton of things (ask me about my cousin sometime...). I give it until tomorrow's tabloid news shows before at least one "long time friend" of Mister Ledger's steps forward with a tell-all expose. And only that long because they've already taped today's episodes.
