Apparently she was found dead in her flat due to an OD.

Thoughts?

Were you a fan?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2018020/Amy-Winehouse-dead--Found-dead-London-flat.html

im not a fan necessarily, but i recognize that she had a great singing voice and that it's so tragic for her to have wasted it

I was not a fan of hers although she did have an incredible voice. Very sad news.

Not to sound like a ****, but who didn't see that coming.

So...nearly 100 people killed in a shooting/bombing in Norway...and this is what people care about.

^ Making a 10-20 second comment on a random message board means you care less about what happened in Norway? That's a hell of a leap in logic.

It's been all over everything since yesterday morning...I find it hard to believe that people have heard about Amy Winehouse being dead when that was just announced in the past hour but not what's been going on in Norway.

I made a thread about it because it was just announced and I thought it was a worthy topic to discuss. Not my fault no one has mentioned Norway.

I could care about both, but do about neither.

i don't check news outlets that much, so i only just hard about the Norway bombings until i went to yahoo to check my emails last night
same with how i only just found out that there's a heat wave in effect covering most of the States haermm
i thought it was just really ****ing hot like it always is in the summer in my area haermm

Forget what I said first, this is what I should have said instead:

"So....I guess she won't be going to rehab after all"



Thank you, thank you.

Where's the Dislike button for KMC? Your post is very quick to jump to judgement.

I heard about the Norway bombing/shooting as it happened, I talked about it yesterday with people. I'm still reading up on it and gathering more information.

Amy Winehouse's death, which everyone saw coming, is still breaking news to me.

My sentiments exactly...

I know nothing about her, but may she rest in peace.

I care about that a lot, and I know a lot of other people that do as well. Just because the media is fame hungry doesn't mean everyone is.

I do know her and whilst it's sad it's not something that comes as a huge surprise to me...the lifestyle she had, drugs and alcahol...it was bound to happen unless she cleaned up and I guess she didn't cause now she's dead from an overdose

She should have gone to rehab, but she said "No, no, no!".

Winning.

Yet, she has probably accomplished more than you have, nonetheless.

Ah yes, the typical ***** has done more, made more, had more than you ever will comeback. I dont understand why people fall back on that lame-assed post whenever someone doesn't care about a particular celebrity/cause that they do.

Contrary to what you think, many of us are/were FAR from being jealous of AW. This news wasn't neither a shock or earth shattering in my world. She was a screwed up, train wreck of a mess. Oh yeah, I really, really wanna be just like her. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

And lastly, I gotta go with Ken on the post about Lana jumping the original poster. Jeez woman.

Well this has gotten out of hand fairly early on

If I may...the reason being is that they have an addiction and rather than try and get help they decide to throw their life away. I mean lets face it we're all taught about the effects of drugs and so on and what they can do and yet people still decide to do it. Thus Bruce has no sympathy for them...because they decided to go down a bad path in their life.

Not all addicts are the same. Some people try with all their will to kick habits but for one reason or another they fail. To class all addicts in the same bracket is incredibly childish.

Wow. You've really let this work you up. Relax, son. I don't give a crap about her. I just stated an opinion to get someone riled up. It worked better than I thought it would.

It's how I felt with Steve Irwin, and currently feel about Bear Grylls.

But they still had a choice from the start, they knew what they were doing was wrong...I doubt someone held a gun to their head and said 'Here take some drugs....stay up till 9!' But yes...some do try to quit, I was just simply stating though why someone would feel no sympathy towards someone who takes drugs or is an alcoholic.

WAIT?! Bear Grylls is dead?!

You'd better believe it, though. I knew about Amy Winehouse first, because I saw someone mention it on Facebook and looked it up. Then when I logged into my email I saw the news about Norway. Don't watch tv in our house so wouldn't have seen the news on there etc. Bit presumptuous to think everyone follows media coverage the same way as you.

This confused me, I thought she died a while ago...

I don't do drugs so I doubt that I will and I'm no alcoholic. People know what kind of effects drugs have, I know what they can do hence why I have never done drugs. By all means try and help drug addicts and what not but in the end it's them who decided to experiment with drugs in the first place and thats why they got hooked.

As someone who has worked with addicts I can say with complete confidence that your comments are uneducated and very imature.

Yes, yes, you're fantastically big and clever because you've never experimented

Stop being so close-minded. Experimenting with something does not equal addiction. It takes a LOT more than just trying something to develop into an addict.

She had so many more problems than a lack of self control. I feel hugely sorry for her and the unhappy life she must have had which led to her death. It's not only the drugs, they were her form of escapism and good for you if you've never needed to find something to lose yourself in just to escape the pain of your life. I'm pleased for you, but there's no need to act like she deserved to die and state that you have no sympathy. That's terribly cold.

They have a nice medical term called "addictive personality".
It is a fancy way of saying weak willed. Apparently some in the medical community believe addicts are wired differently than people that can say no or stop when they are ahead. I couldn't tell you if that is 100% correct but it has been around for a while. Explains a lot. We just have more and better avenues to fail now but we always have managed to find one regardless, haven't we?

Anyway, Winehouse was talented. Too bad her demons consumed her. RIP

I knew who Amy Whinehouse was from people talking about her.

However, I have only seen pictures of her. She always looked like a drug addict to me and that was exactly what she was, apparantly. Based on all the stuff I've read on Facebook from my friends, I am inclined to be unhappy about her passing. Not because I cared about Amy, but because I care about my real friends. She brought joy to them, so why should I not feel a least a little bad that my friends lost someone they cared about?

I'm not going to try and sound cool by saying I don't care even a tiny bit about her passing, because I cannot honestly say that for the reason I outlined above. RIP, Amy.

Regardless of the disgreements above, Amy Winehouse was young and talented. It's a shame her demons got the best of her.

Some of those commenters are just... yeuch. I can't stand people who say things just to get a reaction and not because they truly feel that way. Having said that, some of them may genuinely believe she deserved to die. That makes them completely abhorrent.

Funny, I never really gave her a listen until now. The first song I listened to was You Know I'm Not Good. I really like it. And it took her dying for me to listen.. oh well.

I can't believe this thread got 4 pages.

She didn't change the world, or contribute to it. She was an unapologetic drug addict and drunk. It's sad she was only 27, but come on, leave it alone already.

She was the new Pete Doherty with a lower voice and all her fans use the word "talent" when talking about her, yet I still don't even know what her talent was. ermm

It's still sad man, she died young.

I know plenty of unapologetic drug addicts and drunks who don't even know what the word "contribute" means, but it would still be sad if they died.

That's a pretty f**ked up thing to say, dude. She was talented and it's sad. If YOU don't care, then don't look at the thread. : /

Did they release how she died exactly, yet? I.e. which drug(s)? Anybody know?

Is it okay to mock the dead or is that still taboo?
