Amy Winehouse found dead

[Judas]

Well in that case, it depends on how you perceive addictions but I'm not falling to the trap of worshipping someone just because they were (apparently) ill. You'll also find that I haven't once said that she "deserved" to die, only the simple fact that I won't be mourning her death and defending her illegal practice.

please check your PMs. i'm actually quite disgusted by your comments right now

i'm not going to read the whole thread because 75% of the reaction to her death i find completely offensive and disgusting. whoever thinks they have any right to claim someone "deserved" death is an idiot. nobody deserves death, and nobody has ANY right to say who should live and who should die. the music industry (and the world) lost a massive talent today. been listening to frank this evening, and i'm so sad at the whole thing. her demise has been so public and yet, it appears, no-one could save her from herself. i think it will come back as an overdose. and it may well have been intentional (there were a few interviews she gave last year, and a poignant quote that is now being highlighted: "if i died tomorrow, i'd die happily."). so yeah r.i.p amy, hope she's at peace now.

(AND: the worst thing i've seen about the reaction is people comparing amy's death and competing it with the deaths in norway. "i care more about oslo than amy" etc etc. since when is it 'cool' to have competitions with tragic events. it's lame. any death is bad.)

why the **** do you think, are you actually that stupid? an a-list celebrity has died, of course its big news. michael jackson was on the news for weeks, so obviously winehouse will be

How can you call her a-list? Maybe b-list at best. And no it won't, it'l pass in a few days.

............ you obviously are one of these people who hasn't bothered to listen to any of her music and base her fame on when she's in the news (for being in rehab, or marrying blake or whatever). amy is MASSIVE. she has a massive musical following, young and old, worldwide. and her albums (especially back to black) are some of the best selling albums ever. she is a-list.

Putting her drug addiction aside, she had amazing talent and she had a massive impact in the music industry and its a big loss.

I hate how people are saying she deserves to die or whatever just because of her drug addiction. We don't know why she got addicted and how much stress she was going through in her life both personal and professional. Its never fair to say someone deserves to die whether you know them or not.

R.I.P Amy, I really hope she's at peace now.

this proves how culturally ignorant you are. are you like 12 or something? if you are then i will forgive you for being too young to realise how much of an impact back to black had. don't even make me pull out the stats.

also if you had visited the internet today it would have been impossible to avoid her name. to suggest she is anything less than an icon is silly.

No ones asking you to 'defend her illegal practice' but it's not hard to show some respect to another human who has died. Even if she was an addict, she didn't harm anyone except herself, this is one of those occasions where if you haven't got anything nice to say, then don't post.
