Why Fark, Drudge and Huffington when you can Buzz!?The Walt Disney Co on Tuesday said “Just Married” actress Brittany Murphy will provide the voice for the fairy Tinker Bell in an upcoming animated film, the first in the new Disney Fairies line. Murphy, 28, provides the voice for the character Luanne Platter on the animated TV show “King of the Hill.” Her voice will be the first ever to emanate from the mouth of Peter Pan’s feisty sidekick in a Disney animated film. Murphy, also star of “Uptown Girls” and “Little Black Book,” added: “I’ve had the good fortune of playing many interesting characters, but one as magical as Tinker Bell. To give Tinker Bell a voice for the first time is such an honor.” The direct-to-dvd is due out in 2007.
