19QOS19 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Ooft. That’s wild. Suspect there’s more of a story yet to come. First time in this game I’ve actually felt genuinely sad for someone. Brace face but deeply troubled? I dunno...She's clearly topped herself. I expect Trolling will be blamed for it though I never understand why these people don't just avoid Social Media at these times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However shocking and raw as it may be. Predicting it before the end of last year, notwithstanding the news, seems, I dunno... actually no, I still can’t work it out.

Previously volatile media personality, obsessed by public perception of her, reacts catastrophically to bad publicity. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 She was looking at a conviction for domestic abuse which would have made her untouchable for tv networks, f**k all else going on career wise. She always seemed to be volatile but it was still a roll of the dice picking her. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrible that she's seen this as the only way out, but if the roles were reversed and her boyfriend had been the abuser I doubt the reaction to his death would've been as tribute-laden. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Was she no pumping a 17 year old when she was in her mid thirties? Then she'd been done for pretty much attacking her lad whilst he slept with a lamp? The outpouring of grief and blame from figures that probably caused a lot of grief seems to be spilling out in a pretty big way. Horrible situation all round and it's the first celebrity death that's had an effect on me for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As she was second on your list, my calculation is based on her being your VC and earning you another 50% of her base points. You also get 50 points for the solo shot plus a suicide bonus of 30. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
