Oh no. That’s very sad. May she rest in peace 🌹
Euro-trip, Take Me Home Tonight, among other movies and TV Shows. Only 39…damn that's too young.
I always liked her. Rip
Life is soo short may my Michelle rest n peace my princess 😢
I hate when people die everyone mourns as if they were a good person while they lived. Michelle was not a good person, but that doesn't mean that she deserve to suffer. I truly hope that she and her family have a newfound sense of peace. And I do wish her family all the privacy that they deserve.
Too young to die celebrities are dropping like flies
RIP

She was a part of my child hood and teens. Harriet the Spy, Euro Trip and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. So sad. I wonder why her liver failed? Drinking or Drugs??? She seemed gaunt in the face and Rosie said she was struggling the past few years, how very sad. R.I.P Michelle ❤🩹💔❣
I had a schoolboy crush on her during my teenage years.
😔 we never know when is going to be our last day on this realm. Please enjoy life every single day and don't think for a second that accumulating money is what you were put on this planet to do.
Such a beautiful and vibrant young actress, my grateful prayers for her and her family.
I'm so sorry. That scene in the Buffy "The corpse" episode broke me when I was young. She deserved a better career professionally.
Way too young 😢😮
Euro trip😢😢😢😢
