He was very private. I had no idea he was an addict. Anyway, he was probably my favorite current actor. RIP.

Oscar-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman, 46, was found dead of an apparent drug overdose —- with a hypodermic needle still stuck in his arm —- inside a Greenwich Village apartment on Sunday, cops said.
A personal assistant found Hoffman in his underwear on a bathroom floor at 35 Bethune St. and called 911 around 11:30 a.m., sources said.
Cops found heroin inside the apartment, where Hoffman — who has repeatedly struggled with substance abuse — had been living recently, sources said.
“He was shooting up in the bathroom,” a law-enforcement source said.
The building is less than three blocks from the three-bedroom, 2-1/2-bath apartment on Jane Street that Hoffman and longtime girlfriend Mimi O’Donnell, a costume designer, bought for $4.4 million in 2008.
The couple have three children together.
