R.I.P. Tai

It’s taken me all day long to get around this, because I was shocked, yet not all that...surprised when I heard the news: Clueless scene-stealer Brittany Murphy died this morning at age 32, reportedly of cardiac arrest.

Sad news all around.

“2day the world lost a little piece of sunshine,” ex-boyfriend Kutcher tweeted. “My deepest condolences go out 2 Brittany’s family, her husband, & her amazing mother.”

Clueless co-stars Alicia Silverstone and Donald Faison also offered their condolences, as well as folks like Jessica Simpson, Alyssa Milano, Lindsay Lohan, and Fred Durst, who took to their Twitter accounts to remember the actress.

Murphy also appeared in movies such as Girl, Interrupted, Don’t Say a Word, 8 Mile, Uptown Girls, and Sin City, and earned critical acclaimed for The Dead Girl.

She recently made headlines for supposedly getting fired from The Caller, a movie she was working on in Puerto Rico last month, rumors that were quickly kiboshed by her rep and which, unfornately, made her the butt of several jokes and an SNL spoof that has been pulled from the Web.
