TMZ has learned that 2006 Academy Award nominee Heath Ledger has died in NY.

He was found dead in his bed in one of his residences in Soho by his housekeeper at 3:35 PM ET today. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ they believe it was not a crime.

The 28-year-old actor has a two year old daughter with former fiancee Michelle Williams -- they separated in September, 2007. He plays the Joker in the upcoming Batman film, "The Dark Knight."

MSNBC is reporting that the actor was found, surrounded by pills.

Found on TMZ.

**Jocasta** · 01-22-2008, 06:09 PM

The day of Brad Renfro's funeral, yes, shocking. Sympathies to his friends and family, his little daughter especially.

The actor Heath Ledger was found dead this afternoon in an apartment building at 421 Broome Street in SoHo, according to the New York City police. Mr. Ledger was 28.

At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at Apartment 5A in the building for an appointment with Mr. Ledger, the police said. The masseuse was let in to the home by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Mr. Ledger’s bedroom. When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found Mr. Ledger unconscious. They shook him, but he did not respond. They immediately called the authorities. The police said they did not suspect foul play. Officials said pills were found near the body.

New York Times.

**eliza'snumber1fan** · 01-22-2008, 06:36 PM

Ive just heard on sky news, Im totally shocked!

My deepest sympathy to his family and friends :(

Moshe.. · 01-22-2008, 06:43 PM

I never heard of this celeb until I read about his overdose on fox (foxnews.com is my homepage - a website for true intellectuals!). But when celebrities commit suicide like this, it's all very sad but at least it might show kids that just getting a little bit of money and media attention won't be enough to make you into a happy person. I should be a school governess.

**Jocasta** · 01-22-2008, 06:47 PM

True, Moshe. Let's hope this helps at least just one poor kid who's considering the same.

(Does someone want to combine this thread with the one in the Celeb forum?)

**open32** · 01-22-2008, 06:59 PM

Wow, this is one nobody saw coming.
Jeez.

I hope it does.

but it´s a shame, he was on top of his career and a great actor as well
I´m speechless

Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday of a possible drug overdose in a Lower Manhattan apartment, the New York Police Department said.

The Academy Award nominated actor was 28.

"Pills were found in the vicinity of the bed," police spokesman Paul Browne told CNN.

"This is being looked at as a possible overdose, but that is not confirmed yet."

The pills appeared to be over-the-counter sleeping medication, said police spokeswoman Barbara Chen.

Ledger was unresponsive when he was found by a housekeeper who had gone to wake him for an appointment with a masseuse in the Soho apartment, Browne said.

The apartment is owned by the actress Mary-Kate Olsen, The New York Times reported.

Ledger was declared dead at about 3:30 p.m., Browne said.

In 2005, the actor played Ennis Del Mar in "Brokeback Mountain," about two cowboys who had a secret relationship.

The role earned him the Oscar nomination.

Ledger was born in Perth, Australia. He has a young daughter with actress Michelle Williams, his co-star in "Brokeback Mountain."

"He was just so respected in the industry," said Kim Serafin, senior editor of In Touch Weekly.

"It's just horribly tragic. He was just a fine actor and a good person, so this is horribly sad and very unexpected."

Ledger was always focused on his career, Serafin said.

Some of his other film credits also include "A Knight's Tale" in 2001 and "The Four Feathers" in 2002.

You can feel unhappy despite being a super glitzy & shiny looking american who wears highly exclusive gold-laced underwear which against the best advice of the italian orthodontist community donatella versace had personally woven together using her own teeth, and she does have a flawless smile. Donatella is too classy. Another man can have a very happy and fulfilling life while working as a sewage-pipeline-engineer who has to listen to mozart on his own while sleeping in a cold forest snuggled up with a family of hedgehogs, his only friends. It’s all about your attitude.

Osama McDonald · 01-22-2008, 07:27 PM

I think Amy Winehouse will be the next to pass on.

I don't think it's official that it was a suicide. Haven't read much about it though.

**Plastic Flute** · 01-22-2008, 07:28 PM

TY Fix. OMG so sad

Captain Beefheart · 01-22-2008, 07:32 PM

Ledger was australian I believe. He was in the mix with some really promising films lately too.

Moshe.. · 01-22-2008, 07:54 PM

Winehouse will be fine. I love my winehow. Her name is winehouse and she drinks lots of wine, it's so witty, I know it's a very subtle observation. I always go to her pub, it's at the top of camden lock, and you often see her serving the drinks behind the bar. I'm way too shy to talk to her! But you know it's the ones that seem super weird who turn out ok, they're quite normal really. It's the seemingly normal ones you have to watch out for.

Captain Beefheart · 01-22-2008, 08:13 PM

I feel largely ambivilent about Whinehouse to be honest. She's a big girl. She can make her own decisions. It's sort of her schtick anyway. The girl has a drug problem and obviously she's not ashamed of it considering she snorts it right during a performance.

If you think her dealio is sad, imagine all of the addicts without platinum albums. Throwing Amy Winehouse a very heartfelt pitty just seems kind of self-satisfied to me.

**Plastic Flute** · 01-22-2008, 08:27 PM

Bizzare he was found naked . Why call for a Massage if youre jacked up on sleeping pills. Unless you wanted to be found.

Moshe.. · 01-22-2008, 08:42 PM

Maybe he was just a nudist. Being naked is fun. But winehouse looks like a such an ordinary and quite nice person, she has long talks in the pub with friends, and they're all really chic and boho. Maybe she does a bit of coke in her spare time, but that doesn't say anything about you. I do love kate moss too! Mossy has some genuinely cool style going on.

aloha · 01-22-2008, 08:42 PM

he was found naked? OMG, it must be full of news over there right now
