Not surprised here but disappointed as I was pulling for her; thought she would beat the odds. Amy Winehouse dead at 27.

She joins the club of famous musicians who died at 27. She long had a strange and publicized battle with drugs and alcohol. She could have had the world but the addiction was powerful and won.

I guess the pain was too much to bear, to intense that led her to self destruct. She is at peace now. No more fight, no more pain.
