Hollywood Reacts to Anne Heche Taken Off Life Support
Anne Heche, 53, has been declared brain dead and taken off life support. Her horrible car crash last Friday put her in a coma and she never regained consciousness. Earlier this evening, her loved ones decided to take Heche off life support.
Hollywood reacted with tremendous sorrow.

What a tragedy it is how this industry eats so many people alive. And my heart also goes out to the poor woman who lost everything in the fire Anne Heche's crash caused. https://t.co/ci2ccIOmwe

I hope there's a re-evaluation/reckoning for what happened to Anne Heche in '90s–she was praised as an ingenue and then blacklisted the exact second she came out (as in, yanked off red carpets while they were happening). https://t.co/20iG6eseYh

Awful news about Anne Heche… what this industry and world can do to people. She left an indelible late-90s mark on my budding film lover’s heart, first as scene-stealing Missy in I Know What You Did Last Summer, then in the under-appreciated Return to Paradise . pic.twitter.com/vySM8j789P

A cruel coincidence I never knew. Heche’s brother also died in a car crash when Heche was 13.
Anne Heche lost her brother in a car crash when she was just 13.
It happened just a few months after her father, who sexually abused her, died due to complications from HIV.
What a horrific way to leave this earth.
My heart breaks for her two sons. https://t.co/JuQWvu8Ias

Heche and Ellen DeGeneres dated in the late 90s. DeGeneres hasn’t commented on Heche taken off life support. Although, in true DeGeneres fashion, when asked “it was quite a dangerous accident that happened, wasn’t it?”
DeGeneres simply replied “sure was.” That tells you a lot about Ellen.
