Australian born actor - Heath Ledger has just died in his new York residence, found by his house keeper at 3:35pm NYT. His death is believed to have been caused by an overdose in sleeping pills as many pills were found around his body, and so far does not seem to be trauma related. Autopsies and other investigations are sure to set this assumption into stone.
His death affects the Australian community for he played a big contribution to Australia's growing export of rising stars and talents. He will surely be remembered, especially for his controversial role in homosexual film Brokeback mountain with star Jake Gyllenhaal.
His death has come as a great shock, not only due to his young age and pretty boy image, but because he is the type of person that does not seem to have deserved such a sudden and early ending. His track record is fairly clean, he was simply an actor making a living from roles that many other men did not want to do. A similar situation to that of Steve Irwin's, it seems that Mr.Death has no disposition to aim for just the unworthy when taking lives away.
R.I.P - this blog shall stay up until the death of the internet commemorating such a sad event in the celebrity kingdom.

It's a Tragedy! He was such a good actor and apparently was a really sweet, gentle, kind hearted man who loved his little daughter dearly. What a shame. I still can't believe that he just died so suddenly. No, that's just really sad. Now I'm sad. :'(
nah, i can't believe it. i mean what a short life! That's just terrible. At least his soul has gone to heaven and he did say he felt good about dying now that he had a daughter. So, i hope he's happy in heaven
