Liverpool must of been a right shambles today 3-0,quite a little spanking against a championship team. Whoah Sky News are saying Amy Winehouse has been found dead

Lord TSC

Word going round on Twitter that Amy Winehouse is dead...

gimmick

Gutted.

Loved her singles ,much better than the likes of Lilly Allen and the dire Jessie J. She was a mess for the last few years so its not that much of a shock but still 27...:(

Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in London, it has been reported.
The Back To Black singer was apparently found at 4pm and her death is believed to be unexplained.

I've no idea about anything pop-culture related but it sounds like she had drug, mental and physical health issues.

My guess would probably be an over-dose. Very sad, only 27 :(

Hardly suprising given the lifestyle, was gonna happen sooner or later. Member of the 27 Club now. Guess she should have gone to rehab after all.

Rte two are showing Grounded for Life at the moment,the father in it Sean always reminded me of Triple H.

Massive at one stage at least. She gave an interview that she was obsessed with RVD and Jericho. There is a thread on F4WOnline with Bryan saying that he once had a subscriber along the lines of "Winehouse.A" from London.

can we place a ban on the "should've gone to rehab" joke? Mitch got it out and we can be done with it.

There is a real lack of surprise with the news of Amy Winehouse's death over the internet. I wonder if repsonses will be this muted the day we hear of Jeff Hardy's or Scott Hall's death.

gimmick

Amy Winehouse has been a mess for a long time, and if you saw her recent "performance" in Serbia you would join us in not being shocked. In fact, at the time I said "matter of time" before she died.

27 years old, and an amazing artist. Such a shame.

That joke is gonna be made about 400 times in the next 24 hours.

She must have gone on a hell of a bender when the ex got out of jail. Sad to hear though.

The Volt

Makes you wonder about the kind of people she had advising her. No way in hell she should have been let near a stage in that condition. Sickening listening to the fawning eulogies being given by BBC reporters who were so quick to concentrate on her failings while she was alive.

RIP Amy

The curse of 27 year old singers dying strikes again.. Cobain, Hendrix, Buckley, Joplin and Jim Morrison also I think.. Although I don't think she deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as any of them.. Good singer, overrated artist..

Aye. Buckley is the most extreme example of over-rated. He had the one great album and we know the rest of the story.

Not that he was 30 when he died.

That said there is real case for Winehouse being more of an "artist" than Buckley. Buckley lent on singwriters, musicians and producers too.

meh, play with matches and you get burned. she had the money to walk into any rehab clinic she wanted but didnt, dont have much sympathy tbh. It's funny how the people on facebook and the like are saying its a "tragic loss" wouldnt bat an eyelid at a junkie on the street, but a junkie with a good singing voice is a terrible loss, ok then...

jaykhunter

i'm not excusing her but i doubt she was of sound mind. If you're too messed up to want to help yourself you'll never escape your demons, no matter how talented you are or how much money you have. It's quite sad. But was she just a scumbag junkie? I hope it's not that black and white.

From another forum:

Amy Winehouse trivia - she used to run a WCW website during the Monday Night Wars before she was famous and used to brag about meeting Chris Jericho. She was also a Rob Van Dam fan and still watched WWE.

At least we known what drove her to drink. :pac:

All we need know need now is someone mentioning Oslo and we have captured all related online discourse.

I was sure he was 27? Not that I particarly care, I'd hardly call myself a devotee.. More of a Joe satriani/ Al Di Meola style guitar fan

Morrison was 26 when he died was he not?
