Oh my god! What happened??

Such a tragedy. She really had a lot of talent. I would have loved to see her make more of herself.

It totally cast a shadow on the day.

So sad!

I just heard about it too. It's sad that people glamorize hard drug use; and it doesn't even matter when they totally ruin their career and/or family, because people will then glamorize that the person died young.

WTF?!

Sad.
Too young.

As sad as her passing is, the way she lived her life it was inevitable.

27 yo, like Fats Navarro, Clifford Brown, Jimmy Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin...

Definitely a sad end for a talented woman. But she was on a public downward spiral for some time, and apparently had no one around her who was able to help keep her from the darkness. She died of a disease, but there's always more to the story than just alcohol and drug abuse.

On the other hand, the 88+ kids who were slaughtered in Norway yesterday didn't even have a chance. They had no control of their destiny, their future was stolen from them. Who knows what talents they had for the world?

such a lost.
