I think she was someone loved both by men AND women. Someone giving you this kindness und attention if you'd met her, no matter who you are. I can see her as a happy older woman, too. This is really sad. But I guess she'd be very happy with the way people remember her.❤

Breaks my heart that we lost her too soon. I fan casted her as Harley Quinn before the DC Movies put Margot Robbie, she was talented actress and did voice over work on king of the Hill and I think should would have pull off a great Harley Quinn voice like in the movie Clueless. RIP Brittany Murphy

She got him to play a height game and leave his chair. I imagine being away somewhere with her and she just has you cracking up at everything. She could go from that to oh so s serious while acting as well, somehow she knew the dark but kept herself in real life in the light. RIP-gone so soon from us.

Such a wonderful soul .I hope all that bashed her will burn in hell or be held accountable and receive all and more what's coming to them. RIP, MY BEAUTIFUL ONE ❤.

I once had a girlfriend who was shy, and watching some of Brittany's interviews I can tell that she was a little shy at times. You see how she turns her face hiding it towards the back wall at the 8:56/7 mark, that is an authentic gesture of feeling shy for a moment. She seemed to be a good girl. R.I.P.
