UPDATE: 24/07 - 11.40 am

There's no official reason for Amy's death but it's assumed by many that she died thanks to an Overdose.
It's very known her long fight against drugs and alcohol and some fonts agree that her death could be related with a high dose of drugs - says "The Guardian".
Recently she had tried a rehab, but her career was passing a very hard time after her hole European tour got canceled, including her participation for Sudoeste TMN Festival, in August being replaced by Kanye West.

"Daily Mail" also said today that Winehouse was devastated for her recent breakup from her boyfriend Reg Traviss - age 34. The same newspaper said Traviss decided to end everything when he realized he couldn't help her fighting against her dependency and her inner ghosts.

Her last appearance was with her goddaughter, Dionne Bromfield, at the beginning of the week when Dionne participated on the iTunes Festival, in London.

Amy Winehouse's death with 27 years old puts her together with many artists that died with her age and from the same thing (there's already a quote that no famous drug addicted survive after 27) like Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain and Brian Jones from The Rolling Stones.

Many artists already share their grief on social networks like twitter and facebook, here are a few messages:

  • Mark Ronson: "she was my musical soulmate & like a sister to me. this is one of the saddest days of my life"
  • Janelle Monaé: "heart is heavy. My heart goes out 2 Amy Winehouse's family, loved ones. Praying for their strength during this time."
  • Hayley Williams (Paramore): "never truly be gone cause have you heard that voice?"
  • Diddy: "RIP Amy Winehouse"
  • The Who: "Amy Winehouse. Tragedy. R.I.P."
  • Mark Hoppus (Blink 182): "Too much death and tragedy in the past two days. Love to Norway. RIP
    Amy Winehouse."
  • Pete Wentz (Fall Out Boy): "super sad to hear about the news. RIP. never take life for granted."
  • Lily Allen: "Its just beyond sad, there's nothing else to say. She was such a lost soul, may she rest in peace."
NEW UPDATE: 25/07 - 10 pm

Amy's autopsy was inconclusive which means they are going to make some drug tests to confirm what killed the British singer, that usually take between 2 to 4 weeks. There are some rumors that she died of a drug cocktail composed by ecstasy, heroin and cocaine, but there's no confirmation yet.
Police have already gone to Amy's home to investigate but the results will only be released on October 26.

During the day, the tributes, messages, flowers in front on the singer's house in Camden Square have been bigger and bigger and her parents and brother have already talk to the media. Mitch Winehouse described her daughter with a single word: "LOVE".
