FRIENDS of Hollywood actress Brittany Murphy said she "definitely had a drug problem" amid fears she may have died from taking the same prescription drugs as Michael Jackson
Murphy, 32, was reportedly hooked on prescription drugs, including Vicodin, after a series of plastic surgery operations made her dependent on painkillers.
"We have been very worried something like this was about to happen," a friend told The Sun.
"Brittany has been living life on the edge. She definitely had a drug problem and we have all begged her to seek help. Sadly our words fell on deaf ears."
Murphy was taking prescription medication for flu-like symptoms she had been experiencing for several days, sources have told TMZ.
The actress was very ill in the hours before she went into cardiac arrest and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre, where she was pronounced dead on arrival at 10.04am local time (Monday 5.04am ).............."
I quite liked this particular Hollywood blonde..a terrible shame.
