Brittany Murphy & Simon Monjack Died Of Same Causes

Filed under: Simon Monjack, Brittany Murphy, Celebrity Deaths
How did this take SO long to figure out? Only five months after his wee wifey passed away, Brittany Murphy's husband Simon Monjack was discovered in a similar way by the starlet's mother in their Los Angeles home.
Today, reports surfaced that the British writer died of the exact same causes as his wife: pneumonia and severe anemia. Say what?! How is that possible!
Similarly to Brit Brit, a bevy of prescription drugs were found on the scene and a couple were found in his system. Detectives think that both deaths were caused by a perfect storm of pneumonia, iron deficiency and a multiple drug intoxication.

But what the HELL caused the iron deficiency and pneumonia? How the high heck did they both have it?

Can you believe it's been one whole year on this earth without our King of Pop?
Seems like just yesterday that we all were glued to the news, unable to believe that Michael Jackson had managed to shock and surprise us one last time! For this hour, let’s just take a moment to remember MJ, who in all his kookiness still managed to touch the world.
Above: Michael Mania reaches weird new heights with a performance of "Thriller" by inmates at a Filipino prison (!!). Only Michael could inspire that!
And over at TMZ, you can see a live feed of mourners paying their respects at Michael's burial site.

Russell Crowe is NOT Dead Y'all!

Filed under: Russell Crowe, Celebrity Deaths
The trouble with being a celeb over the age of 40 is that people always mistake you for dead!
For a second there, a few of you were lead to believe that Robin Hood himself, Russell Crowe, was D-E-A-D! The error surfaced on my fave fact-checker, Wikipedia. JK!
A representative for the uber-site explains "Wikipedia allows anyone to edit without creating an account. This leaves us open to a lot of vandalism, which is normally corrected within a few seconds by automated editing programs."
Many other celebs have been declared dead on Wikipedia including Twilight hawttie Taylor Lautner, award interceptor Kanye West, and Fugitive Harrison Ford.

Gary Coleman's Ex Cashes-In On Photos
June 07, 2010 | 11:58 AM PDT
Filed under: Gary Coleman, Celebrity Deaths
Gary Coleman's ex, Shannon Price, is allegedly auctioning off photos of her wee, once hubby on his death bed off to the highest bidder! A post fall, close to death's door Gary Coleman?! NO THANKS!
A little more than a week after the death of The Diff'rent Strokes star, following a massive brain hemorrhage, his ex-wife Shannon is trying to cash-in on his death.
Price is shopping photos of Gary hooked-up to a ventilation machine moments before his death and even photos of him after he's already passed. How terrible. Price reportedly received six figures for said pictures, but the tabloid dumb enough to purchase them has yet to be revealed.

Gary Coleman And Wife Separated in 2008?!
June 02, 2010 | 03:21 PM PDT
Filed under: Gary Coleman, Celebrity Deaths
Gary Coleman may be laid to rest, but unfortunate news broke today as rumors that Shannon Price and the wee actor had divorced two years ago (After only one year of marriage!).
This normally would be no big whoop, but if Shannon made decisions as his "Power of Attorney" while he was in the hospital, aka deciding when the doctors could pull the plug, the hospital where he died could be in HOT water!
The Diff'Rent Strokes actor's lawyer, Randy Kester, dished to TMZ that the couple separated in August 2008 and NEVER remarried. The hospital defends itself (poorly) by stating that because Price acted as Coleman's wife, they never were led to question her! Makes my tummy hurt!

First thoughts I had: What if she pushed him, rushed him to the hospital and pulled the plug?! Yikes!

Simon Monjack To Be Buried Next To Brittany

Filed under: Brittany Murphy, Simon Monjack, Celebrity Deaths
Radar Online reports that after his death in the wee Monday morning hours, the late Brittany Murphy's husband, Simon Monjack, will be buried tomorrow in a private ceremony at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills.
Just 5 months after his wife died a (druggy) death ruled to be caused by natural causes, police believe that Simon also died of natural causes despite the fact that his body was found close to a table littered with prescription pills. It was well known that the overweight screenwriter had heart problems and police believe he died after suffering a heart attack.
Today Radar Online spoke with a source close to the family that reports “Simon spoke last week about making sure that he and Sharon would be buried next to Brittany.” Coincidental? Continuing: “She was everything to him. He wanted to make sure they would be together both in life and death.”
