Can't say I didn't see this coming; still sad though. She was really talented but equally fucked - looks like she joined the famous dead-at-27 group.

Least surprising death ever. Still, she was amazingly talented. It's a shame she couldn't get it together. RIP.

Sad, but not shocking.

As predictable as this may have been, it is still very sad news. It is unfortunate that she couldn't have been forcibly removed from her environment and made to complete a more thorough program of rehab. She was so immersed in that lifestyle that it was almost impossible to expect that she could avoid this fate on her own...

Sure but having Devil Dogs come a'callin' isn't the same as drug overdose.


True. Johnson was the original. His will always be more epic, and the rest will remain pretenders.

I was just thinking about Winehouse a few weeks ago. Kind of strange.

Didn't Cobain die at 27, too?

Too bad. My jaw dropped when I heard it on the news. I rather liked her.
