46. AS SOMEONE WHO.'S EXTREMELY SAD ABOUT HEATH'S DEATH AND A NEIGHBOR 2 BLOCKS AWAY WHO LEFT FLOWERS AND A NOTE AT HIS DOOR, IT'D BE NICE IF PEOPLE HAD A LITTLE COMPASSION AND LESS HATEFUL TALK HERE. HE WAS A CELEBRITY, PEOPLE ARE HIRED TO PROTECT THEM FROM PEOPLE LIKE YOU.........HE'D BEEN DEAD FOR 1-2 HOURS THE REPORTS TODAY SAY. SUCH A TALENT LOST, I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU!!!!

49. Mary-Kate like Mary Magdalene recognized the saintliness of Heath. A woman of few words who loves the Lord, you should not be making fun of her. One word from her mouth can reach the Ears of God while your wordy insults only descend to the cells of Hell where your future cellmates await you.

Woah, I didn't realize speaking our minds would make your God hate us so much. I don't worship your God, so don't worry about me.

54. just reading your post at no. 34 really now,, you have read my exact thoughts..most of these celebs live in a bubble.. they are protected by insane amounts of money , they are young without much judgement and no one says the word"no " to them apart from parents..depending on how honest those ones are too. the fact that mary kate took a decision to call in her security detail says a lot about how these people operate.its hollywood not the real hood so to speak. the fact is you never saw heath surrounded by security and all that palava. he was a down to earth guy from a very down to earth town .mary kate is part of a multi billion dollar business so the paranoia that goes with all that is how they all live ..by... is she the one that was forever in rehab with an eating disorder?. cos the amount of critisism she is going to get for her actions will land her right back there again..

55. #49-- Ummmm I hate to break the news to you, but the guys D E A D. I do not think he is going to read your note.......
Maybe you could take the flowers to a hospital where there are sick people who have no choosing of their illness and do not have the world at their feet. They would actually appreciate the flowers.

56. why would a masseuse call someone not even in the state to help someone who isn't breathing and who's body is cold? Could it be that the masseuse had landed without her papers and was too scared to call the authorities? Do they not teach the protocol of heath and safety in masseuse school?
The time line just doesn't add up...what was the maid, masseuse and Olsen hiding that they couldn't just call 911? Why all the drama?
Those two ladies could of helped save him if he wasn't gone as of yet, if in fact the maid did hear him snore (ah, he was a snorer...poor love).

57. it is sad enough that Heath has died but do make it worse an Olsen twins name is mentioned in many news articles about Heath. It just muddies an already horrible event as the Olsen twins are rich nobodies who never seem to go away. I just can't imagine a star of Heath's magnitude wanting Mary Kate to be his last known conquest...yech...
