My husband comes home this evening and runs to the office. He calls for me and says that they found Heath Ledger dead. I was kind of in disbelief and figured it was one of those rumors that people like to pull with celebrities. BUT come to find out, its real.
As a teenager I always bought 'TeenBop' you know that teen magazine with teen celebrity posters in them. I always had
Jonathan Brandis,
Brad Renfro,
Heath Ledger, the kids from 3rd Rock from the Sun and alot of other teen actors from the 90's. The first 3 are now dead, more than likely all from overdose/drugs/suicide.
It is SO f'ed up and crazy to think that most of these people are around my age, were famous, fame took over their lives and ruined them. Killed them. This is one reason why I would NEVER want to be in the spot light. You have to be a pretty strong person to not let things happen to you that would change who you were before becoming famous. Its just amazing to me that anyone can just throw their life away. I guess money does not give you everything. It certainly does not give you a life.
