Simon Monjack Cancels Brittany Murphy Foundation Launch
Simon Monjack, husband of the late Brittany Murphy, has canceled an event celebrating the actress' life.
On Tuesday, UsMagazine.com reported that Monjack was suggesting dollar amounts of $1,000 per individual and $10,000 from corporations to attend a Feb. 4 launch party for the Brittany Murphy Foundation, which is dedicated to arts education for children.

But a source tells Us that Monjack had an assistant call all of the RSVP'd guests Tuesday afternoon to tell them the event has been cancelled indefinitely because he has pneumonia.
A source tells Us, "He probably realized that everyone thought what he was doing was so tacky, so he decided to cancel."
Look back on Brittany Murphy's career highs and lows
Murphy was found dead Dec. 20 at the age of 32. The results of the toxicology report to determine the cause of her death are pending.

Her autopsy results haven't even come back yet and he's out to make some dough?! This dude is up to no good. The only reason Brittany ever married him was because she was on drugs.
The idea of the Foundation isn't the Tacky part... It's Monjack & Mumsie trying to con everyone who really did appreciate Brittany's TALENT. The one who was a Class Act is now gone. Hopefully, she will be remembered Honorably when Conjack is totally out of the pic. He just reeks of swine & swindle! Maybe he has swine flu? ROFLMAO
Maybe he really has pneumonia. Why always assume the worst? It doesn't seem like a "tacky" foundation to me. Sarah Palin's PAC is

If that was the case it was a good idea, just maybe he went about it the wrong way. ******************************************************************************** Couldn't agree with you more! Maybe he'll try something different to launch the foundation at a later date.
We miss you Brittany! You are in our thoughts.
WISH TLC WOULD CANCEL FAKE AS* KHATE GOSSELIN FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's a shame, this would have been a nice way to honor Brittany!
Good, glad it was cancelled!
