SHOCKING footage has emerged showing the tragic actor Heath Ledger partying with strangers at a drugs fueled Hollywood party. In the video, which was shown on US shows The Insider and Entertainment Tonight, the 28-year-old 'Brokeback Mountain' star can be seen talking to the men, who are snorting cocaine.
The grainy footage was apparently shot at the Chateau Marmont hotel on January 2006, and Ledger can be heard talking to the men about his then-three-month-old daughter Matilda.
And while Ledger was partying, his then-girlfriend, 'Dawson's Creek' star Michelle Williams was upstairs with their baby Matilda in a separate room.
At one point, he can be heard saying: "I'm going to get serious s**t from my girlfriend. We had a baby three months ago
"I shouldn't be here at all."
Ledger - who was found dead in his New York City apartment on the afternoon of January 22 this year, cannot be seen taking drugs in the footage - the full uncut videotape is due to be aired on US TV today.
Meanwhile, a club owner has sensationally claimed that he used to supply cocaine to Ledger.
American John-Bruce Shoemaker, 45, told a U.S. magazine that Heath was a heavy user of hard drugs while filming in Prague on two different occasions.
And he insisted: "I supplied him with cocaine and we did it together."
His explosive claims to the National Enquirer in the U.S. come as toxicology reports are still due to reveal if drugs played a part in the Brokeback Mountain star's death.
He insists the star once confided in him: 'If I'm not careful, this stuff will kill me.'
And Shoemaker has no doubts that it must have played a part in the star's death in his Manhattan apartment.
"I feel 100 percent certain that Heath's lifestyle was connected to his untimely death," he told the National Enquirer.
Shoemaker says he got to know Heath - and his party habits - while the star was in Prague on two occasions, in 2000 to film 'A Knight's Tale' and then 2003 for 'The Brothers Grimm'.
"Heath was in my club practically every night for months," he insists. "There were lots of beautiful girls in my club but he ignored them all. He was interested only in drugs."
Most alarmingly he says the passing years brought about a noticeable change in how hard he was using drugs - and also in his personality. "The first time, in 2000, he would snort about half-a-gram a day," shoemaker insisted.
