    Get well soon, Mr. Freeman!!! He's such a great actor. That Batman movie is cursed.

    there's something MK is guilty for... I don't know what, but that little munchkin isn't as innocent as people believe she is. If she's seeking IMMUNITY FOR GOD'S SAKE she is definitely hiding something. I think she knows far more than Heath's own family might know. When the story does come out, I doubt she'll look all clean smiles and sunshine...

    sending positive thought to Morgan and Christina.
    MK is a shaddy shaddy troll
    Happy to hear Dark Knight is doing so well even though I have no plans to ever see it.
    Nikki and Bianca....was it really that serious? Getting arrested over seats? Mother in the hospital? Shame!

    wow - i hope that morgan freeman is ok - that's really scary! there's been a lot of celeb accidents that have been reported on lately.

    i read about the Christina story this weekend, and i wish her the best. it's good that they were able to catch it so early, since it'll help in her fight.

    i'm not surprised that MK doesn't want to talk. it's been a weird discussion point about her involvement and why she was called first and all that.

    Mary-Kate is a shady, shady person. She obviously was more involved than it appears. I hope they do prosecute her.

    Good to hear update on Morgan, just heard the news and thought he was still in a very serious condition.

    Don't what's up with MK, but if she's guilty of nothing , then she should speak up.

    Please tell me someone has a pic/video of the Nikki fight!

    Isn't Bianca supposed to be 'ghetto' or something? How can she afford to go on that vacation? She didn't win and wasn't really good enough to get work, right?

    Oh yeah, MK is hiding something. If she wasn't, she would be more than happy to help out and offer any information she had. Her behavior just doesn't seem like a person who has nothing to hide.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT ALEX CROSS! Alex Cross has been shot, beaten up, left for dead and STILL was OK. He'll be fine.

    For non-James Patterson fans, Alex Cross is a character in his books, and has been portrayed by Samuel L Jackson in both movies (Along came a spider and Kiss the girls).

    I love me some SLJ!

    See?! Morgan got into an accident cause Myrna told him "Aint no good gonna come to you until you do right by me" that cheatin snake in the grass! Though, I have to add that he's my favorite actor, I still dont condone cheating. Meh.

    Now you KNOW Mary Kate gave Heath a couple of pills. That was her Rx, thats why she wants immunity. I mean, does it really matter at this point. He's dead.

    Nikki Blonsky?! Biotches done stole her seat! I love it that she wasnt havin it. LMAO

    Best wishes to Morgan and Christina! I'm fans of both and wish nothing but the best for them and their families.

    Mary Kate Olsen appears to be very shady here. If she did nothing wrong (ie give him pills or direct him to someone who could due to her own widely rumored addictions) then she probably would talk without the request of immunity. Asking for that appears like she did something or knows far more than she would like people to believe. Shame on her.

    Mykie - I think you mean that Morgan Freeman played Alex Cross, not Samuel L. Jackson Smiling

    Is the Dark Knight cursed or something? I hope he makes a full recovery!

    I hope Morgan Freeman gets well soon! That car accident sounds scary.

    I wonder what Mary-Kate Olsen has to hide...I have a feeling that they were both involved in drugs, whether they were prescription or illegal.

    That Nikki Blonksy fight sounds crazy, I wonder what happened between her and Bianca from ANTM.

    Oh and I hope Christina Applegate recovers! That is so sad that she is afflicted with cancer at such a young age, but I'm glad that it is not life-threatening.

    I'm not saying MK is right, HOWEVER, do you all realize that if you are given a prescription for say, Tylenol 3 with codeine, and then a friend injures themself and you give THEM one to help, you have just broken a MAJOR law.

    MK probably knows this, and if she provided ANYTHING prescription to Heath, even just one time, she could be in trouble if it contributed to his death.

    I've done that without thinking, but it's really dangerous to do. It's not done maliciously (At least not in my case) and it's not done as a "WHOO HOO TAKE THIS and you'll get high!" It's just a friend wanting to help another friend.

    I'm not saying that's what she did, but it could be, and if he died as a result, she could be facing a WORLD of trouble. She's smart to ask for immunity if you ask me.

    Now, that said, if she provided him with drugs on a regular basis, then I say she fry's. LOL

    Mykie - don't you hate when you do stuff like that? Yesterday morning I poured milk into pasta salad instead of cereal. I was looking at it the whole time I was getting it ready thinking, geez, what am I doing with the pasta salad out?

    I'm almost 3 months preggo though, so I do wacky things all the time!

    Mykie7 if someone provides another person with drugs (of any kind) in an illegal manner don't you think they should be punished for that? I'm not just talking Mary Kate Olsen and Heath Ledger here, but anyone.

    Trendy, yes, unless it's like I said, it was a "non-thinking" move. Like a friend says "Oh MAN I sprained my ankle and it hurts something AWFUL" and as a friend you say "I may have a (insert name of pain killer here) left over, do you want one until you can get to the doctor?" Yes, that's still illegal, but I think there's a specific distinction there.

    Now, if she KNEW what she was doing and was providing drugs to him on an ongoing basis instead of just one that one time to maybe help him sleep or something like that, then yes, she ought to be prosecuted.

    Me too Jessa, how much more can the poor girl take? I like her, MUCH more now than in her "married with children" days. And I think she's a great little actress.

    Get well Christina!
