This afternoon, actor Heath Ledger — of Brokeback Mountain, A Knight’s Tale, and more recently of I’m Not There fame — was found dead in his Manhattan apartment, allegedly (for a time) an apartment in Mary Kate’s building. Yes, that’s right, one of the Full House twins.
[[That’s how rich the old gal is — not an apartment, but a building. Dressing young girls these days pays. Who’s going to say "No" to daddy’s little girl? I want. I want. Ok, hun. Train ’em young.]]
The facts — as reported on the internet (sometimes this clarification is necessary):
- He was found in Mary Kate’s building.
- Mary Kate is one whacked out gal, with quite a dark cloud around her.
- [[I can no longer find the info about Mary-Kate’s apartment, leading me to believe either she has the world’s greatest publicist, or the New York Times made an oops.]]
- Ledger was found naked and unconscious on the floor near a bed.
- A bottle of pills was found on the bedside table.
- The bottle contained both prescription and non-prescription pills.
- The masseuse was on the way.
- Ledger left behind a child. [[Probably should have left the pills alone. If a child ain’t a reason to live, then…. ]]
- Ledger expressed "dissatisfaction" with his own work.
- Kurt Cobain also expressed "dissatisfaction" with his own work. I heard the two compared today.
- (Ledger would have made an AWESOME Joker!)
- Legder was working on a Terry Gilliam film.
- Johnny Depp almost went crazy working with Gilliam on Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
- Gilliam is from Minnesota.
