Baska Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Showbiz-News/Amy-Winehouse-Found-Dead-At-Home-In-Camden-London-Say-Sky-Sources/Article/201107416036201?DCMP=News-search-sslc Singer Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in Camden, north London, at the age of 27, police have confirmed. The London Ambulance Service was called to her flat just after 4pm but were unable to save her life. Sky sources said the singer was "beyond help" when paramedics arrived. "On arrival, officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene," a police statement said. Her death is being treated as unexplained and inquiries are continuing into the circumstances, it added. The Back To Black artist had cancelled all tour dates and engagements last month after a series of erratic public appearances. Her final show was in Belgrade in June where she was jeered by fans after a shambolic performance. She had appeared briefly on stage with her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield on Wednesday night. She had been troubled by drink and drugs problems throughout her career. Tributes to the singer have been posted on Twitter. Sarah Brown, the wife of former Prime Minister Gordon Brown said her death was a "terrible waste of a great talent." Kelly Osbourne tweeted that she had "just lost 1 of my best friends" Quote
GI-JOE Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Sad, but kind of what I expected to happen :\ Once you get stuck in that kind of spiral it's damn hard to get out It's a shame though, I really kind of liked her style, that whole throw back to the 60's movement is great Quote
Lo0n Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Can't say I'm surprized to hear this considering all of her problems in the past. Either way though R.I.P Quote
nani* Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Great singer, is a significant loss to the world of music. Rest in peace. Quote

Joker Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Sad to hear, I'm a bit young to know her music but my mom liked here :\ R.I.P Quote
GraveDigger Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Damn! What a waste. I am not surprised though--cocaine and booze are evil monkeys to have on your back. I dont know if she was high when she died but I would bet my last dollar on it. Such a soulful voice and I always thought she was sexy--but I like dirty bad girls. RIP Amy Quote
Artisan Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Quite a shame, but not surprised in the least bit. :/ Quote

bell reavue Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Not much of a fan, and I can't say I'm surprised, but nevertheless R.I.P. Quote
kogucik Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Sorry but i don't care. Even children know what drugs make with ppl. She was rich, she could go on taraphy but she dont wanted. So that was her life. Everyday ppl are dieing inf crash, work not of their fail. She lived like she wanted and thats effect of it. Quote
Matasanos Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 There is nothing sadder than wasted talent, especially if it was for drugs.... go people, go to drugs, to end like that.... Quote
