Actress Michelle Trachtenberg, known for a wide range of TV and film roles including in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Gossip Girl,” has died at the age of 39, sources told The Post.

Trachtenberg was found by her mother around 8 a.m. Wednesday at One Columbus Place, a 51-story luxury apartment complex in Manhattan’s Central Park South neighborhood, the sources said.

The actress recently underwent a liver transplant and died of natural causes, according to the sources.

    Sure, that matches with liver problems. But I really don’t care. I know enough real people and just care about celebities. Sure this is sad, but I just came across this by accident. Yeah, I know her name, she’s fucking Buffy.

    I can’t listen to lost prophets anymore because of things I learned. I hate it. I don’t want to know things about celebrities, it just ruins media.

      She wasn’t Buffy, and the topic was about whether or not a death associated with a liver transplant at 39 years old was ‘natural’. Retorting with ‘I just don’t care’ on a topic that you spurred on begs the question - why did you decide to comment, at all?

        I think it’s more about not joining the gossip about alcohol problems while answering the question about “natural causes” with the published information she’d had a liver transplant. I think you’re ascribing malice when it wasn’t there. Whedon toxicity is probably the part they hate.

        I just came across this by accident.

        I usually don’t follow that kind news, but I knew the name. That’s all. Sorry for commenting. I won’t do it again.

      For real, though, the worst part of that whole saga has to be that you specifically can’t enjoy a couple mid tier screamo albums

      You could edit, she was Buffy’s little sister, so of course you knew of her. I think you could also insert “don’t” where it’s missing. Btw, Buffy is Sara Michelle Gellar Prinze. And alive. They both have (had) done a lot of good roles.
