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.

Winehouse shot to fame with the album "Back to Black," whose blend of jazz, soul, rock and classic pop was a global hit. It won five Grammys and made Winehouse — with her black beehive hairdo and old-fashioned sailor tattoos — one of music's most recognizable stars.

I can't say I'm surprised.

Why is this even news?

I know. I wasn't a bit surprised hearing this either. I saw some pics of her about a month ago and was wonder how it was she didn't already OD. Sad

Name sounds mildly familiar. Seems like the old saying 'live fast, die young' holds true in this case.

It's really sad but she was running down this path.....not walking.

A real shame. Not surprising but definitely sad that she wasn't saved from this fate.

Everyone in the world saw it coming. You'd think somebody would save her from herself.

Don't do drugs, kids!

No, but seriously, that girl destroyed her life by doing level dope and sticking around with a jailbird husband. Even her dad seemed like he just gave up on her when he casually described her drug use.

So, yeah, I'm sure her music was a'ight, but I think I'll save the waterworks towards people that don't casually toss their lives away.

I too am not surprised by her passing, but she seemed to have some talent none the less.

Oh well, R.I.P.

but not surprising that this happened.
RIP where ever you are...
