Heath Ledger everyone. Classed as a new Marlon Brando.
According to Michael Caine, his performance as the joker in the new Batman film, is second to none.
Look at Kurt Cobain.
Why do these guy's do it?
Why do talented peeps who make it, top themselves?

Well you'll probably live forever.
It's a laff, innit?
David, close to genius again, was that.
Maybe it's because the very moment you attain the dream, you no longer have the dream. The cruel paradox of life.
We don't know for sure if Ledger killed himself on purpose.

Well taking any substance in vast quantity is enough to know you may.
There's plenty of untalented people who top themselves too.
Fame and talent do not necessarily protect you from mental health/stress etc.
You dont have half the stresses if your rich & famous though!
Any problems caused by being famous, can be rectified by leaving that avenue of work.
No, but some people commit suicide, for example, due to mental health problems. Problems which come to a head sooner due to the pressures of fame.
If you're rich and famous and a girl breaks your heart, then it's no easier to get over. Even if you can sit on a nice sofa all day.
I fear the worst for Amy Winehouse. I predicted Sid Vicious.
For some reason I think that Amy Winehouse is more likely to overdose than Pete Doherty.
Pete usually seems quite chipper, but Amy seems quite upset all the time.
Let's hope it gives Gillian Mckeith ideas.
