Brittany Murphy came to Hollywood as a teenager full of talent and promise – but struggled to reach her full potential over her 18-year career, sources tell PEOPLE, due to a set of "inner demons" that included troubling body image issues.

"She was drastically different when she entered the business," a friend tells PEOPLE "Full of life, determined. But over the past few years, [she went] downhill. There was always something off, something in the way. She had a lot of inner demons."

Two weeks before Murphy's sudden Dec. 20 death at age 32, her frail form raised eyebrows at the Tt Collection Pop-up Party in Los Angeles Dec. 3, resurrecting eating disorder and drug abuse rumors that have shadowed the actress for years.

In 2002, after Murphy revealed a radically slimmed-down silhouette in the film Spun – a departure from the rounder figure that fans remembered from her breakout 1994 film, Clueless – tabloids linked her weight loss to cocaine.

There's more, follow the link if you care. She had a heart attack.

32 and had a heart attack. It had to be drugs.

Meth is a helluvadrug.

She also had flu symptoms before the arrest. It sounds like she may have had to many problems at once and broke down (drugs, flu, a failed career). I still personally liked her, but most of her work was not what one would call 'achieved.'

I liked her.

And she did "achieve" because she made it. She realized her dream and then drowned in a sea of drugs. After I'm famous and die in about a decade or so there will be no mystery as to how I passed. The bodies of slain shark demons will wash up on the shores of australia and the orphans I saved will make sure I'm never forgotten even if my movies are only as notable as clueless.

If she really did have body images issues, Clueless must have been the worst choice for a first movie

Derrick · « **Reply #6 on:** Dec 22, 2009, 10:24:47 PM »

Well she's now with Alicia Silverstone and Stacey Dash's careers. The guy who plays Turk on Scrubs and Paul Rudd managed to escape.

I agree. People can say what they will about her career but most of them will still know who she was. They've seen Clueless, Sin City, Happy Feet... or heard her hit single with Paul Oakenfold or heard her on King of the Hill. She got her name out there, got work in television and film, and was recognized by her peers. I'd say she achieved a lot.

I read somewhere that it made them worse.

HA HA, I didn't even realize that's who he was. I knew that dude looked familiar.

Some other site--like a Yahoo! news page or something--had a whole list of the meds found in her possession. Pretty much a recipe for instant death if she took them all together.

I would have liked to issue my body to hers. But only as she appeared in some movies. Nah, fuck it, I'd fuck her.

Just one more casualty of 2009. Glad we all made it out alive.

I don't know...we haven't heard from Bernie in awhile.

She was the only Brittany that was worth a damn. On the planet.
A great loss to Brittanykind.
And I was a fan of her in her movies.

Gwen just made me think about Ashley Spinerelli and I probably spelled that wrong.

Jaseofff just made me think of Spinderella from Salt 'n Pepa and I probably spelled that wrong.

My name does not have an a, the o is in the wrong spot and replace all 'f's with a ph.

I ws about to Jaseoff, but my Mom walked in.

Fiero · « **Reply #19 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 03:17:36 PM »

And you did her instead?

Rama · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 04:08:37 PM »

And if you did...did you film said encounter?

Derrick · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 04:11:46 PM »

...my Mom is disgusting.

Now Kary's Mom works out and wears thongs.

Mmmm.

Fiero · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 04:28:28 PM »

Can you videotape her working out?

Derrick · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 05:08:09 PM »

...well she lives in Savanah. Kinda far.

Milf working out pr0n, could work. I wonder if I could start a pr0n website.

Karmarose · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 05:12:35 PM »

Huh, cool. I finally remembered my password to this.

No video tape of my mom working out in a thong.
Just no. >.<

Derrick · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 04, 2010, 05:28:20 PM »

Bidding starts tomorrow.

There's a website out there already dedicated to athletic MILFs. I just can't remember the damn URL.
