Not only that, but I really don't see this woman as a particularly famous or accomplished artist...I haven't seen a single film by her. Is this hot news because she's Liam Neeson's wife?

Probably. It's still a sad story though, no matter how famous she is or isn't.

ETA: Also, she's Vanessa Redgrave's daughter in addition to being Liam Neeson's wife.

Yeah, I suppose it is, but since I've never heard of her before today, I'd feel like a hypocrite to say I cared a lot. Sounds awful, but at least it's truthful. :\

I only say this because this is the third thread I've read on this today with people offering their condolences and wishing her peace and prayers. So yeah....:|

Yeah, I don't get the offering of condolences thing either. It's not like Liam Neeson is sitting around reading Music Banter.
