That's terrible. She was one of my favourite actors and quite underrated. I really liked her in Spun, Sin City and The Dead Girl. 32 seems pretty young to have a heart attack. Perhaps drugs were involved.
There is actually speculation (at least among non-important people) that it has more to do with the need to be thin than drugs. No sources or official word on that, but just mild speculation.

Quite possible. I knew a girl who had anorexia and had a heart attack in her late 20s. Although it wasn't a fatal one.
Given she went from a beautiful, vivacious, normal brunette to an ultra thin blonde under the influence of Hollywood, it could quite easily have had health consequences.
I remember seeing an interviewing with her a few years ago where she admitted that she had had to shape herself into a certain image for the studios to get work.
She was a fabulous actress, and this is such a waste.
I've heard of her before, but I couldn't remember what she looked like, and really didn't think much of her. But then I looked her up on IMDB, and saw that she was the voice of Luanne Platter on "King of the Hill" and that just broke my heart. I love her character in that show, and it hurts to know that she won't be on there anymore. I wonder what they're going to do with the show now?
Sad it happened, but c'mon... You all are acting like she was Sophia Loren. She was, at her best, a B-liner who, fell into obscurity and back drop roles. It's always a shame when someone dies un-expectingly. It's a bigger shame when they've touched someone's life in some way or another, as she had done with her film roles to those that followed her work.
But she was not and will not be remembered past "Oh, that one girl from clueless" or... I think she played in "little black book... Let me check IMDB on that, though"
Again, sad... Tragic. But I'm sure she had a lot to do with why she died and that it wasn't at the hands of malice. Again, I do feel for her family and friends that knew her but I don't know her. She never did anything spectacular that touched me in any way and for that I can only see this as a stranger dying.
Ask yourself how many times you people have read the paper or watched the news and been up in arms about the average person/stranger in your hometowns dying affects you. I bet you don't give half as much sympathy for those that die in wrecks, freak accidents or at the hands of violence.
