What the hell?
That's horrible!

OMG...what's up with so many young actors dying this year? We'll have to wait and see what was in her system. No one dies of cardiac arrest at age 32 from natural causes.

Actually, I never saw her more recent stuff, but I loved her in Clueless, Drop Dead Gorgeous, and King of the Hill.

I would put my money on cocaine, or perhaps (to a lesser extent) Clenbuterol.

Maybe she had an underlying heart condition. Not likely I know, but possible.

I think she may have had an eating disorder too.

Maybe...but still not natural causes.

Well if she has a bad heart, discounting any possible relation to drugs, it is natural.

I guess my point is that 32 year olds don't just have cardiac arrests. "Natural causes" are usually thrown around to imply that someone died of run of the mill old age, etc. Dying of an undiagnosed cardiac anomaly wouldn't really fall into that category. The same could be said for dying from a cardiac arrhythmia brought about by longstanding eating disorders. This isn't really considered "natural causes." I see what you are saying, though. It's really unlikely that a cardiac anomaly was the cause of her death, but before I assume that she was high or under the influence of alcohol, I guess we should wait for the autopsy.

Her ex Tweets about her death:

32 with heart attack...something doesn't sound right...

Sad news, I liked her in Just Married. I'm going with cocaine as the cause of death on this one.

I know!!! It's so awful, she was really young to die of something like that.
That was my first thought.

Facebook is lit up--as more people find out, more people update their statuses with Clueless quotes. I see about 3 "I hope not sporadically" and 2 "Rollin' with the homies :p

Anorexia?
