Brittany Murphy Dead, Replaced by New Moon Actress
Brittany Murphy, the perpetually perky and slightly quirky actress who worked her way up from supporting parts to romantic leads after her breakout role in the film “Clueless,” died Sunday in Los Angeles. She was 32.
Before her death, Brittany was reportedly ‘in and out’ of consciousness on set. This alleged behavior was rumored to be the reason she was ‘fired’ from her latest movie, “The Caller.” Although Brittany’s crew denied she was fired, she was replaced by Rachelle LeFevre, the original Victoria from “Twilight” and “New Moon.”
I’ve always been a fan of Brittany, ever since her quirky performance from Clueless…a loss, so sad.
Brittany’s famous friends are also offering their condolences via Twitter.
Murphy’s other “Clueless” co-star, Donald Faison, shared the same sentiment.
“Brittany was one of the sweetest people you will ever meet,” he said in a statement. “She had the voice of an angel and a genuine heart of gold. I’m very happy to have known and worked with such a special person. My heart goes out to all of her loved ones.”
Stars flooded Twitter with condolences for the late actress. Most notably, Murphy’s ex-boyfriend and “Just Married” co-star, Ashton Kutcher, expressed his grief.
“2day the world lost a little piece of sunshine,” Kutcher wrote on his Twitter page. “My deepest condolences go out 2 Brittany’s family, her husband, & her amazing mother Sharon … See you on the other side kid.”
