I found this article very informative about how Brittany Murphy actually died. I heard that she died of cardiac arrest but in reality the primary cause of her death was pneumonia. Also, it is really sad that she has died because she was one of my favorite actresses and in some of my favorite movie, Clueless and Uptown Girls.
