RIP Amy Winehouse

If you look good standing next to Tony Bennett, then you actually look good..

Definitely not digging the tattoos though, well her tattoo's that is. Regardless of that, she was definitely a talented woman, I'm sure her record sales will go though the roof now, which always happens when there is a death.

I brought this up '27 club' on a statistics website and their study seemed to say it didn't really exist. People who live like this live an average of 36 years or so and die for several different reasons.
And a candle burning at both ends lasts half as long.

What a great voice and talent she had. To be honest, I was surprised that her passing away was not related to drug overdose.

Congrats to the late Ms Winehouse on her appearance on the number one selling album in the US, also Tony Bennett's first ever number one album

Turns out she had 5 times the legal limit of alcohol in her system. Ouch.

I'll say it again, she was quite the stunner when she was younger. She's pretty hot in this pic:

They made it official.

Death due to alcohol poisoning.

Another example of a talented artist not getting the support and guidance of their management and record labels. Shame but not a suprise.

Honestly, she also got the wrong sort of support from friends and even some of her fans. When you write a song with lyrics such as "I don't want to go to rehab . . . " And it becomes a smash hit, with friends and peers cheering whenever she sang it? I heard that song for the first time, and I knew how her career was going to end. It couldn't have been more blatant. Maybe things would have ended differently if even one of her celebrity friends had bothered to pull her aside and have a chat with her, instead of simply cheering her on.
