I am beginning to sense that something is really wrong in Hollywood! With Michael's death, and Peter Lopez, and now this! Remember how the Quaids said they are leaving Los Angeles,because you can get killed !! Their story sounded ridiculousat first, but now I am not so sure, maybe they are somehow correct.

Tribute: Hollywood Player...Chasen then crashed her Mercedes-Benz into a light pole around 12:30 a.m.
Ed Winter, spokesperson for the Los Angeles County coroner's office, confirms her death to The Hollywood Reporter. An autopsy will be completed Wednesday or Thursday.
A Beverly Hills Police spokesperson tells THR: "On November 16th 2010 at approximately 12:28 a.m. Beverly Hills police officers received info regarding shots that were heard in the area of Sunset and Whittier, shortly after a collision was reported in the same area. Units arrived and discovered a newer black Mercedes Benz E-350 involved in a solo crash to the light pole. The lone female occupant was located in the vehicle with apparent multiple gunshot wounds to her chest. Beverly Hills paramedics transported the victim to a local hospital where she was later pronounced deceased. The investigation is in the preliminary stages and no further information is available at this time. At this time there is no suspect, info or motive for this crime."
A spokesman from the Beverly Hills police department added that some search warrants have been issued as a matter of routine, a forensic examination of the car is underway and "our detectives are looking at all aspects of this crime." He said the investigation is in its "infancy" and the police are not putting forward any theories regarding the murder at this time.
"It's an unusual incident for the City of Beverly Hills," he added.
Police called to the scene said Chasen was "in and out of consciousness, but breathing," according to RadarOnline.com. She was taken by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.
Earlier that night, Chasen -- as always a presence on the red carpet eagerly tending to her clients' interests -- attended the premiere of Burlesque.
Chasen began her career as a publicist in 1973, and worked on films such as 1989's Driving Miss Daisy and 1997's Lolita.
In February 1993, she was named senior vice president of worldwide publicity at MGM.
"I was both delighted and surprised when MGM approached me about this position," Chasen said then. "I've given this very careful thought, and, although I will miss working with my personal clients on a day-to-day basis, I look forward to this new opportunity with great enthusiasm ... this will be a very exciting period for the company, and I am delighted to join the MGM team."
Chasen also worked for Rogers & Cowan for a number of years.

Our source said, "Ronni said in March she suspected she was being followed, but didn't know by whom. She said she was scared. Some people close to her believe it was a hit, but nobody knows why."
It was unclear if Chasen, who was shot to death in her car in Beverly Hills as she drove home after the party for the new movie "Burlesque" at 12:30 a.m. on Tuesday, contacted police at the time.

Ronni ChasenFormer NYPD and LAPD chief William J. Bratton, who now works in private security in New York, told us, "This is a real Hollywood whodunnit. Four days in we still have no idea [what happened]. Nobody seems to have come up with anything substantive as far as motive goes. Beverly Hills has very few homicides, so every resource they have will be focused on this."
Beverly Hills Police Lt. Tony Lee declined to divulge any aspects of the investigation, saying, "People are coming out with all types of theories. But we will not rule out anything until the perpetrator is found."
Neighbors reported hearing gunfire and found Chasen's car crashed on Whittier Drive, a street of multimillion-dollar homes just south of Sunset Boulevard.
The Hollywood Reporter yesterday said Beverly Hills police were working on a theory that the attack was planned and not the result of road rage or a carjacking.
Detectives suspect Chasen, 64, was shot through the passenger-side window from another vehicle -- possibly an SUV, because of the high angle of shots fired, Beverly Hills Mayor Jimmy Delshad told the LA Times.
Officers searched Chasen's home and office, taking away her computers, but say they're still trying to identify who might have wanted to harm her.
