Amy Winehouse, the beehived soul-jazz diva whose self-destructive habits overshadowed a distinctive musical talent, was found dead Saturday in her London home, police said. She was 27.
Police confirmed that a 27-year-old female was pronounced dead at the home in Camden Square northern London; the cause of death was not immediately known. London Ambulance Services said Winehouse had died before the two ambulance crews it sent arrived at the scene.
Oh man. Oh damn. This has really got to me. I love Amy Winehouse. Seriously loved this woman and her unbelievable talents, and while this whole thing isn’t a bit surprising – I know folks who have had her in their death pool for the last six years – it’s still an awful blow to the music community at large.
RIP Amy, and may you finally be free of the myriad demons that clearly haunted you.
I saw a post on CNN that said “Stars Shocked by Amy Winehouse’s death” and thought bullshit no one is shocked.
It’s sad but not unexpected.
wow that was a lot of bs you just said sarah, thruth is u bloggers love this shit and she wasnt making music anymore she was just counting down the days to this trainwreck. we all knew she wasnt gonna get better sooo all the talent shit is unnnecesary cause she wasnt going to use it anyway
27 strikes again.
Honor the girl and yourself – and cry.
I think a lot of people (myself included) really were hoping that she would get herself together, get healthy, and keep making music.
A sad waste of talent and of a life …
stupid woman
A true addict is always chasing that euphoria of the first high,guess what,you aint goina find it! And the chick had taste and talent.

Totally agree that the Norway news is more important now…but yeah, what a waste of talent. Meanwhile, Lindsay Lohan better be taking notes…
