Actress Brittany Murphy went into full cardiac arrest and could not be revived early this morning. She died at the age of 32. Sources tell TMZ Brittany Murphy’s mom discovered her unconscious in the shower. We’re told when paramedics arrived, they quickly determined Murphy was in full cardiac arrest and immediately administered CPR. They continued CPR in route to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center — several miles away — and Murphy was unresponsive. She was pronounced dead at the hospital.
A rep for Murphy tells TMZ, “In this time of sadness, the family thanks you for your love and support. It is their wish that you respect their privacy.”
Brittany starred in such films as “Clueless”, “8 Mile” & “Uptown Girls”. R.I.P.
