Amy Winehouse Dies on July 23, 2011

Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London home on Saturday, July 23, 2011. Amy was 27 and had a noted history of drug and alcohol addiction. Grammy award-winning Winehouse found success with her second studio album, Back in Black which was released in 2006. Her hit single off that album, "Rehab." "Rehab" in many ways became an anthem to Winehouse's tragic life and unwillingness to get help for her addiction. Winehouse sang that they tried to make her go to rehab but she said "no, no, no." In reality, Winehouse did go to rehab, but her stays were typically short and clearly never effective. Her father, Mitch, made several public pleas that his daughter needed help and would die if she could not beat her addictions. Unfortunately, Winehouse was never able to beat her addictions and like many talented artists before her, her demons were too many and she died on July 23, 2011.
