OlderCelebrity Reactions to Heath Ledger’s Death
Here are the first celebrity reactions of Heath Ledger’s death:
“I am just beyond sad at this point and shocked. I was on my way over to pay him a visit when I found out. I had just left him a message and heard his voice on the machine. He was such a special and genuine person, so extraordinarily talented because he was so raw and honest with his feelings. He was so full of life, so electric…. This is immensely sad.” — supermodel Helena Christensen, rumored to have been romantically involved with Heath
“What a tragedy. My heart goes out to his family.” — Nicole Kidman
“I am shocked and very saddened by the news. I deeply respect Heath’s work and always admired his continuing development as an artist. My thoughts are with his family and close friends.” — Cate Blanchett
“I had such great hope for him. He was just taking off and to lose his life at such a young age is a tragic loss. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.” — Mel Gibson
“He is one of my favorite actors. His abilities are rare…it’s a tremendous loss. It’s hard to be here celebrating Australia under these circumstances.” — John Travolta
“It was with great sadness that I have learned of the passing of Heath Ledger. It is tragic that we have lost one of our nation’s finest actors in the prime of his life. Heath Ledger’s diverse and challenging roles will be remembered as some of the great performances by an Australian actor.” — Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister of Australia
“The studio is stunned and devastated by this tragic news. The entertainment community has lost an enormous talent. Heath was a brilliant actor and an exceptional person. Our hearts go out to his family and friends.” — Statement by Alan Horn, President and COO of Warner Bros. and Jeff Robinov, President, Warner Bros. Pictures Group

I have no words. Utter and complete shock!!! R.I.P Heath :(

My first reaction SHOCK……..Wow
Thank you, Jared
suicide or accent is a perfectly fine question #13. shes not criticizing him, its a simple question. he could have been taking drugs for a million reasons, shes wondering if it waas to kill him self or anything else.
R.I.P. Heath :(
Death of a human being is sad specially at a young age and no matter how previaged he was. I am really sad I really loved and respected him for his talent. He was one of my favorite actors. RIP Heath
i’m so sad.
I’m in deep shock!!!
In the last few pics of him that have been out recently, he has really looked different, and not in a good way. Just like he was there but not really there. It is a terrible tragedy for this family. Hopefully the press will let them mourn in peace.
=[
When I found out I about cried, he was so beautiful!
All of you should pray for his family, especially his two year old daughter.
poor michelle and matilda

Terrible, terrible loss. Thoughts and prayers with family and friends…nothing but respect for the ones he left behind, especially his daughter. May she have the love and support throughout her life to cope with a tragic loss.
now will the studio cut his scenes in the movie “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” ?
R.I.P
Wheres the source for all of these?
@ bataglio - sorry but I agree with Daniela. He just died and all you have to say about it was suicide or accident? No condolences or best wishes to his family or anything nice to say about the person. Just because he didn’t go to war or directly save anyones life doesn’t mean he deserves any less respect.
You don’t need to cure cancer to earn respect. EVERY person deserves respect, even you.
its realli sad.. considering i kno his step sister very well..
wa loved him and my mates saw him around christmas time he looked soo happy..
absoulte champion..
well miss him
xo
39. shoulda watched the news they showed his body bag and everything..
ugh
:[
rip
this is horribleee
poor his daughter
rest in peace heath
I very much agree #40.
I’m still in complete shock. I can’t believe he died! His family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers.
#25: Even though Heath isn’t inspiring children in a ghetto, his performance in Brokeback Mountain will always be remembered for opening millions of people to the idea of tolerance, and gays as human beings. Are you 14 years old? There are more than the few narrow cliches that you rhymed off in terms of how people can be “respectable” and worthy of mourning. Shame on you!
So very sad, and shocking.
Exactly #25. But some people don’t have the depth to understand that you don’t need to be directly involved with someone to change or influence their life.
R.I.P. Heath. We will sorely sorely miss you. You were probably one of the greatest actors of our generation.
@ bataglio
that is being disrespectful. he was a great actor!
i suppose you dont watch any movies or tv or read magazines because celebrities arent important to you
gosh he is dead the lease you can do is say something nice or nothing at all
