British news sources, including the BBC and the Daily Mail have confirmed the shocking news that British soul singer Amy Winehouse has died at the age of 27.
According to the Daily Mail, Winehouse was found in her London apartment at 11am EST, and there is no reported cause of death.
Winehouse had been struggling to get her career back on track after the mammoth success of her 2008 album Back to Black. There have been reports as of late of her lackluster performances fueled by her drug abuse. There is no news as to how drugs may have contributed to her death.
Despite her tabloid troubles, Amy Winehouse was an extraordinary talent who was certainly taken from us much too soon. May she rest in peace, and may her music remain a true standard of modern pop music.
