Poor thing. I was never a fan of hers but I certainly don't view her death as a joke.

Seeing her was always the equivalent of staring straight into the face of addiction. I don't know if she was an alcoholic or a drug addict. Perhaps she was both. Doesn't matter now. The real lesson here is that addiction kills.

I hope someone decent will be given the opportunity to take care of her daughter. Her infant child is the true victim.

That is the lesson for me.

I agree. She was way out there. I don't think it would be too difficult for her to O.D. from an unintentional overdose.

Take some antidepressents, add some liquor, Xanax or other drug, her son's death and daughter's birth, and it wouldn't be too hard to overdo it. Especially if she had someone 'helping' her along.

I always felt that way about Marilyn Monroe as well.
