There are some people who say that you attract even more fame for yourself once you’ve kicked the bucket. Princess Diana, Elvis, 2pac, Marilyn Monroe and John Lennon all still have an iconic following.
This year, Heath Ledger unexpectedly joined that list after he died from an accidental drugs overdose. Hollywood was in shock as a talented young actor was taken away from us. The news also allowed a few inevitabilities, too. Actors and actresses would unite in grief – from those who had worked with him and those who hadn’t – and the unreleased films Ledger had been working on would be certain box office smashes, plus someone somewhere would cash in along the line. And we’ve just discovered what they'll be cashing in with.
The Heath Ledger doll.
