RIP Amy Winehouse

[Ikaria]

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.

She had a really distinctive voice.
Sad to hear but not really much of a surprise.
It has always puzzled me how some people that acquire fame and fortune can never seem to be able to handle it, they always need to get high to escape reality.

she looked older and more used up that Keith Richards in the last picture I saw, I would have sworn she was in her late 60's at best.

Another at 27... Jimi, Janis, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, Robert Johnson, Pigpen McKernan... so sad.

I have to wonder why all these famous people are train wrecks. She was talented but you could see her circling the drain years ago. Sad.

Welcome to the 27 club of wasted talent. Very sad.
