Blind Items Revealed
Tuesday, August 18, 2009
This C- list actress with B list name recognition used to be a B or B+ movie star. She then got into drugs and basically withered away her career. It happens. She had begun making a comeback last year but had to drop out of a movie because she needed surgery. What kind of surgery? Because of her past nose candy use, her entire nose had to be reconstructed and then had to have surgery on both of her cheeks as well. After taking almost an entire year off to recover she is back working and is in a big fall movie.
Brittany Murphy - At the time I wrote this she had not been kicked off The Expendables which was the fall movie. I have heard that many of the prescriptions she was taking were as a result of this surgery.
oh wow... how sad
ReplyDeletesad RIP
ReplyDeletewhat a waste.
ReplyDeleteI knew we'd get some Brittany reveals today. Tragic.
ReplyDeleteSad but not surprising. RIP, Brittany.
ReplyDeleteHow sad.
ReplyDeletei agree with @Kelsey what a waste and how sad.
ReplyDeletePoor thing. I really liked her as an actress. Hopefully she is at peace now.
ReplyDeleteHer husband then must have been telling the truth about the medications she had. He said that they were because she was ill for awhile.
ReplyDeletei wonder is rose mcgowan and nicole richie did the same.. they came back with 'different looks' as well at one point.
ReplyDeletetragic...
ReplyDeleteThat's very sad. Hollywood really is the shits.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Little Miss Smoke and Mirrors...not surprised at all. :(
ReplyDeleteSee, this is why I hate movies/books/songs etc. that make it seem like drug use is cute and hip and fun.
ReplyDeleteSo f-ing sad. It makes it worse when the person in question was undeniably talented and seems by all accounts to have been a wonderful, sweet, lovely person.
ReplyDeleteBrittany just got lost along the way. I guess that is why her face looked so different.

Congrats, cdanluva, but a helluva one to get right. Sad :(
The whole Brittany Murphy story just gets sadder and sadder. The poor girl was plagued with image and self esteem issues. I can see why she turned to coke to self medicate those issues.
ReplyDeleteI really wonder if that husband was basically her dealer that duped her into marrying him.
Thank God she had a will and left everything to her mom. I hope the tubby hubby doesn't contest it and try to get at her estate.
Sad. RIP
ReplyDelete(Just joining in on "OMG It's Reveal Day", bit late, just wanna say Thanks Enty, Happy New Year to you and all your readers!!)
just read she was an only child and her mom is a breast cancer survivor. how her mom must be feeling now. how terrible.
ReplyDeleteDidn't we think this was coke mom with the new nose? Or am I mixing it up with another BI?
ReplyDeleteI'm with Little Miss Smoke and Mirrors, Susan and Jax (on both posts)...
ReplyDeleteVery very sad. RIP.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is sad. I was really rooting for her, I was hoping she would get clean and have a great comeback. I figured that she would be the answer to at least one BI today.
ReplyDeleteI've been looking forward to the reveals for easily the past week. I'm so excited that it's finally underway! Love, love, love this site. I start out each morning with a good dose of CDaN!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine the volume of drugs it would take to need reconstructive surgery. wow, so sad!
ReplyDeleteReading this reveal just kinda makes it all seem so real and final now.
ReplyDelete:<
chihuahuense - so sad that she couldn't get help in time.
ReplyDeletedoes anyone have any before and after shots of the reconstruction? :( Poor girl
ReplyDeletetragic....i think she was on the big H for awhile too...
ReplyDeletereally sad about her ending...too bad her family and friends couldn't help prevent it. I keep remembering her at some awards show, she got up and started singing..what a great voice! Such promise gone down the drain.

No, the Coke Mom nose thing was on 9/11: "I have no idea what procedure coke mom had done to her nose, but it looks atrocious."
Poor, poor Brittany.
Thanks whole_lotto_luv. It's coming to me now.
ReplyDeleteDamn .. Damn .. Damn. Said it before .. this was just so unnecessary.
ReplyDeleteThough I am totally not a believer in such things ... I really hope there is a Heaven for her. She just seemed like a really sweet kid who just got mind-diddled by the beast that is Hollywood.
R.I.P.
ReplyDelete@ ... *cajun idiot* = *you MORON*... *SKUM-jacka$$* wasn't telling the truth... *he* said She only had taken the flu meds and stuff for Her "woman time". Google and READ *his* "QUOTES". .. so *he* LIED.
ReplyDelete... and *cajun nitwit*... you* = FAIL.
... *that* said... Her BWR flack Nicole Perna LIED to me because she said Britt did not do drugs... and SO DID Her half-sister Pia Jo... because she told me via email when she met up w/ her in Mississipi IN 2005, that Britt "never did drugs at all". Oh ya... what about Mommy Dearest Sharon? Sharon told the paramedics that Britt had a history of diabetes... why didn't she tell them that Britt was on meds because of Her plastic surgeries and had in the past(?) abused COCAINE? But no Sharon HID THAT. So these people were enablers ALL OVER... hiding Britt's *addiction(s)*. In fact, everyone surrounding Britt's Inner *Hollywood Circle* was/is a LIAR.
... very PI$$ED off at ALL OF *them*... SO 'NUFF SED.
Very sad. :(
ReplyDeleteI watched that interview with Craig Ferguson and she said she didn't drink b/c of how it would make her (referring to the fact that she was already a bit jittery/wound up).
I just wish someone could have helped her....
Here are some before and after surgery shots

Jax, Rose McGowan was in a car accident and had a flap of her cheek hanging loose (EW!!!) so that was why she had surgery, but she clearly had her eyes done at the same time and maybe some other stuff. I'm not saying I don't think she's on drugs, but that wasn't what inspired her sudden change of look. :)
ReplyDeletethanks, classalpha, for info typed in readable fashion.
ReplyDeletei believe you cared for her, and i'm sorry for your loss.
her husband should be investigated 100%, leaving no stone unturned. and if mother hid something, so should she. why, oh, why, would these people be hiding things? they had to have some involvement in her death.
damn.
This quote by Brittany Murphy made me so sad when I ran across it last night
ReplyDeleteEverybody has difficult years, but a lot of times the difficult years end up being the greatest years of your whole entire life, if you survive them.
Brittany Murphy- Seventeen Magazine, September 2003
I wonder if she, like some other celebrities, Googled herself and saw the nasty comments people made about her appearance after the plastic surgery. You know, when people didn't know it was because she had succumbed to drug abuse and needed such a large reconstruction job. It was all about "what the hell is Brittany Murphy doing to her face? Doesn't she know shes gone too far?? Ew!"
ReplyDeleteIf I was her, I would have developed image issues too, if she didn't have them already. I feel very sad for her family. Always thought she was nice, kinda cute, amd vulnerable.
Ever see the South Park episode about Brittany Spears?
... Thank You "bunny". I will never be happy again w/o Her. No more Holidays for me - they died along w/ Her. Nothing matters without Her... and I'm not saying that out of "depression"... because I'm not depressed... just the reality of Her not being around forever is the most sorrowful reality there ever will be.
ReplyDelete... She made HerSelf a Martyr because Hollywood is a wh0rehouse... built on a "foundation" of *drugs... greed... and lies*. For that I despise the Hollywood Entertainment Industry and its garbage mill of *sin* ... but I will never leave SoCal... because She Is At Rest here... and I want to be near Her for the rest of my life.
... BTW... if She had Google'd Her Name... then She would've seen me telling Her for YEARS that I Loved Her and to stay AWAY FROM *"Em"ma M"* and *other KREEPS*... to STOP Her TOTALLY UNNECESSARY *plastic surgeries*... because She was ALREADY SO IMMACULATELY Beautiful... to get off of *drugs* and go to REHAB... and to GET a DIVORCE from *SKUM-jackA$$* too... but She did NONE of *that*. I truly believe She was COMPLETELY set in Her *ways*... perhaps She got a "kick" out of doing the *wrong things* and w/ *the wrong people*... *it* seemed like *it*. So likely there was no convincing Her to do "otherwise"...
sad! sad! sad!
