Brittany Murphy
Age: 32
Brittany Murphy passed away on December 20, 2009. The American actress and singer was originally from Atlanta, Georgia, but moved to Los Angeles as a teenager to pursue her career in acting. Brittany starred in films such as 8 Mile, Sin City and Uptown Girls, and was recognised as an actor with a lot of potential.
Brittany’s death is still a bit of a mystery; originally the Coroner said she died of pneumonia, but when her widower Simon Monjack died some six months later, the Health services considered toxic mold in their home as a possible cause for their deaths.
