Us magazine opens this article by asking, “Want to attend a event honoring the late Brittany Murphy?”
They must have heard me say, “you’re damn right I do,” because after that they detail how Britanys grieving husband has set up a charity with a vague goal about helping children, but a very clear goal for you to give him money.
On Thursday, Murphy’s husband Simon Monjack is hosting a launch party to celebrate the Brittany Murphy Foundation, which is dedicated to arts education for children. (Monjack claims he started the foundation with $1 million of his own money)
He is suggesting dollar amounts of $1,000 per individual and $10,000 from corporations to attend the event
Says a source, “Everyone thinks it’s very tacky that he is making it so much about money.”
In December, for a story unrelated to this, the Hollywood Reporter quoted sources saying Monjack was “a con-man” and “a dangerous guy” who, “presented himself as someone with a lot of money and had none at all.” But does that mean he didn’t spend a million dollars to start a charity so he could teach orphans about jazz hands, and this may in fact be some sort of sham? Yes, for Christ’s sake yes, that’s exactly what it means. What are you retarded? You can’t be this naive, man.
a few quick points about “his money”:
- In 2005, warrants were issued for Monjack in Virginia for credit-card fraud and theft.
- Also in 2005 he was evicted from his apartment in New York for owing $7,025 in back rent. This was one of 4 times that he was evicted between 1997 and 2006.
- In 2006, a British bank received a court judgment against him of $470,132.
- In April of 2007, Monjack disappeared for 10 days claiming he had been kidnapped and held for ransom, which Brittany paid, when in fact he was in jail.
- One month later Brittany married him in a secret ceremony after dating for 4 months.
- In November of 2007, his ex-wife, Simone Bienne, sued him for the $63,000 she was awarded in a divorce but he never paid. Another woman he was engaged to said he had given her a cubic zirconia engagement ring but claimed it was a diamond.
for the fashionably late brittany murphy
first?
Foundation for what? Women suffering from bulimia and cocaine use? All that money will just go towards more yay-yo.
Here’s a buck, now go away.
I know someone who could donate a Crusty sock!
The money raised will go towards his food budget. Speaking of that, a friend of mine just came back from a vacation in the Dominican Republic. His resort was close to Port-au-Prince ( city near the Haiti DM border ) There are guards with machine guns at all buffets and restaurants! Nice relaxing vacation!! Hilarious.
Have you seen this guy? He is a complete schlub. If I had known it was that easy I would have snagged a Hollywood starlet girlfriend a long time ago.
this is the best you can come up with?
I don’t know about any of you, but if I lost my wife/girlfriend who I loved…I wouldn’t be able to conjure a thought about much of anything, let alone creating some Foundation party for her less than a year from her death…
You would when the auditors came knocking, DB.
Do you think that was the case for Simon, Zombie?
Deebs it would only take you a day to soil every sock and panties she owned.
DB, I think it’s definitely a way for him to cash in on Brittany’s death and help ease his financial difficulties…. similar to the way the Jackson brothers are doing with MJ’s death. Those fuckers had their own reality show on TV before 2009 was even over.
Thanks, Watt. Now I have a vision of DB sobbing and jerking off into his dead girlfriend’s panties stuck in my head.
I need a shower.
I just purchased shares in the Simon Monjack/Randy Quaid mutual fund.
I’m feeling pretty damned good about that investment.
Did I go too far with that last one? I really didn’t think it through that much. I just wanted to say “dead girlfriend panties”. I’m kind of digging myself into a hole here, huh . . .
It’s ok Ohm….I’ve got quite the collection too.
but is the Green Lantern invited?
Shouldn’t they be paying us to go to something like this?
do you think she had life insurance?
who do you suppose was the beneficiary?
Its a small world after all, its a small world after all….
There, now I’m not the only mother fucker with the song stuck in him head
