Personally this is the saddest Hollywood death for me since Aaliyah in 2001. I am shocked, and saddened that as a society we constantly turn to drugs to solve our problems. It's even sadder that this type of behavior hasn't been treated with as importance as it should be by the Hollywood community. Enough is enough, we need to stop paying attention to the Britney's and Lindsey's and laughing about celebrities going to rehab. Zero tolerance. It is us as a community that is killing all these gifted actors, and musicians. He had only scratched the surface on what he could do, and was just starting to show what he was capable of. The Dark Knight was going to be huge for him as his performance looks amazing.
Heath's body was found face down surrounded by pills. Mary Kate Olsen is involved somehow, but I refuse to speculate.
The 28-year-old actor has a two year old daughter with former fiancee Michelle Williams -- they separated in September, 2007. He plays the Joker in the upcoming Batman film, "The Dark Knight."
The NY Times is reporting a masseuse arrived at his apartment and was let in the door by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Mr. Ledger's bedroom. When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom door and found Mr. Ledger unconscious. They attempted to wake him, and when they couldn't they called 911.
When paramedics responded, the actor was in full cardiac arrest. They attempted to perform CPR on him, but were unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at the scene. TMZ reports that Ledger had a substance abuse problem, but had been clean for a year, and never attended rehab.
UPDATE- TMZ can go fuck themselves for all I care. I have never been so disgusted by anyone before, not even Perez. Streaming live from the apt complex is beyond gross.

Sad to see him go, at least he finished his role in The Dark Knight, I'm really looking forward to that film, it's going to have an even creepier vibe to it now, I'm sure it's going to be amazing though.
