This is the causes of Davy jones dead

Davy Jones -- lead singer of The Monkees -- died after suffering a heart attack this morning ... TMZ has learned.

An official from the medical examiner's office for Martin County, Florida confirmed with TMZ they received a call from Martin Memorial Hospital informing them that Jones had passed away.

We're told Davy suffered the heart attack at a ranch near his Florida home, where he was visiting his horses. Davy began experiencing distress while he was sitting in his car, and that's where a ranch hand found him.

The ranch hand told Sheriff's detectives ... the singer began to complain that he was not feeling well and was having trouble breathing. Paramedics were called and Jones was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.  Authorities say there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death.

Jones is survived by his wife Jessica and 4 daughters from previous marriages. He was 66-years-old.  Jones was married to Jessica Pacheco -- his 3rd wife.

Jones joined The Monkees in 1965 ... along with Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork ... and together they churned out a bunch of hugely popular songs including 3 number 1 hits --  "Daydream Believer," "Last Train to Clarksville" and "I'm a Believer."

The group was initially cast by TV producers who wanted to create a scripted series about an actual rock n' roll band.  But the group exploded, and Jones in particular became a Beatles-caliber heartthrob.

The Monkees songs were covered by huge bands like Coldpay, and Smash Mouth's version of "I'm a Believer" was famously featured in "Shrek."

This is top 10 Movie that can be nominate in Oscars Nominations 2012


1. The Front-Runner
It can’t be said enough: “The Artist” — a silent, black-and-white romance from France — has become the movie to beat. Miraculous.

2. The Veterans

We’re betting the excitement never gets old, even if you’re Meryl Streep (17 nominations), George Clooney (7), Steven Spielberg (13) or Martin Scorsese (10).

3. The Newcomers

This is the first Oscars for Jessica Chastain, Jean Dujardin and “Margin Call” writer-director J.C. Chandor. But there’s a good chance it won’t be the last.

4. The Veteran Newcomer


How is it possible that Gary Oldman has never walked this red carpet before?

5. The Octogenarians

Supporting Actor nominees Christopher Plummer and Max von Sydow — both 82 — are competing to bring home their first Oscar after a lifetime of acclaimed work.

6. The Comediennes

What a delight to see “Bridesmaids” represented by Supporting Actress Melissa McCarthy and co-writers Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo.

7. The Documentary Shorts

Some of the best movies of the year can be found in this category, and they’re screening now at the IFC Center.

8. The Fan Favorites

Halle Berry, Tina Fey and Tom Hanks are among the official presenters. But it’s unlikely any will be welcomed as enthusiastically as Kermit and Miss Piggy.

9. The Family Film

As its 11 nominations attest, “Hugo” is a child’s-eye masterpiece designed for all ages.

10. The Overlooked

Let’s spare a thought for the fine actors who deserved to attend tonight, including Albert Brooks, Kirsten Dunst, Andy Serkis and Tilda Swinton.

'The Celebrity Apprentice' New Season - Don't miss it

The drama and emotions in Celebrity Apprentice (Global, 8 p.m.) are about as bogus as they come, even by reality TV’s shoddy standards. But as The Donald keeps reminding us in the two-hour opener of the show’s fifth season (which first aired Sunday on NBC), it’s all being done for good causes, with money being raised for participants’ chosen charities.
For Saturday’s project leaders, American Chopper co-founder Paul Teutul Sr. and Venezuelan actress and model Patricia Velasquez, that’s the Make-A-Wish Foundation and the Wayuu Taya Foundation for indigenous children in Latin America, respectively.
Saturday Night Live (Global, NBC, 11:30 p.m.) is a rerun with host Charlie Day, of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia fame and infamy, and musical guest Maroon 5.
The don’t-try-this-at-home series Wipeout (ABC, 8 p.m.) presents a winter edition called A Sight for Sore Ice – go ahead, boo – in which family pairings take on such obstacles as the Cold-Hearted Snake and a thingamajig called the Pain in the Ice.
Reruns from the second season of The Borgias (CTV, 10 p.m.) continue with an outing in which Lucrezia (Holliday Grainger) gives birth in a convent and the family Borgia seeks annulment of her marriage.

Sunday
The Oscars (CTV, ABC, 8:30 p.m.) were never really intended to be a TV event: The movies predate TV, after all. That’s what the ceremony has become, though. The Oscar presentation has evolved into one of the year’s most-watched, most-talked-about, highest-rated TV spectacles.
Johnny Depp steals the show in Life’s Too Short (HBO Canada, 10:30 p.m.), playing himself. Worth it just for the scene in which he tells Ricky Gervais how he’s going to get even for those Golden Globe gags.
The Amazing Race (CTV, 7 p.m.) isn’t about to stop for something as trivial as the Oscars. Reality TV’s most absorbing competition program finds the teams in Argentina, where they face a challenge at “the world’s largest cattle market.”
The Simpsons (Global, Fox, 8 p.m.) counters the Oscars with a repeat of last fall’s Treehouse of Horror Halloween show, which includes riffs on 127 Hours, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Dial M for Murder and Avatar.
