We interrupt this weight loss message

Can we just mourn for a few moments for Heath Ledger? I ache for his daughter left behind, and for the world of film. I loved him in the cheesy Knight's Tale and his performance in Brokeback Mountain haunted me for days. Next summer they are going to release a new Batman film with him as the spooky Joker, and there will be a bit of a pall, although I'm sure his performance will be amazing. So young, this is so sad.

I loved him in a Knight's Tale and 10 Things I Hate About You. I was still rubbing sleep out of my eyes when I saw the news this morning. Very sad!

You know how some couples have the famous "freebie"? The one where you could pursue without consequences from the spouse? Yeah. Heath Ledger was mine. Hubby told me about Heath last night, and I have honestly been in a bit of a funk. I just watched a bit about him on the Today Show, and it made me even sadder. Big sigh. His poor family!

thanks for posting this! I feel exactly the same..I was actually quite upset yesterday when I heard about this and its not as if I knew him personally! I agree...the new batman movie will be kind of different now that you will be seeing him in it!
