I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

OK then I will speculate: Another crackhead bites the dust. Should we all feel sorry for her for blowing a $50m on drugs?
More money than sense obviously, but we will hear nothing else on the ''news'' for days and all her albums will be re-released and go to number one and everybody will say how wonderful she was. Just saying like, I am sure nobody on here ( with one exception) will agree Shrugs:

Well quite frankly my dear , I agree with you  lol:

She had a talent, she made hoooge wealth out of it , she married a bloke and it didn't work out and she blames him for her addiction to drugs  ::)

She had a daughter she claims she loves but that wasn't enough to stop her cleaning up her act and the drugs eventually destroyed her voice.

There will be all sorts of bollocks about not coping with fame and stuff but quite frankly this is the life you have chosen , that you make incredible amounts of money with and provide you with a lifestyle others can only dream of , and you just waste it.

Seriously though, we now have a child without a mother, due to the selfishness of said mother. If Whitney had as many ''true'' friends as are coming out of the woodwork now to say how wonderful she was, then those ''true'' friends should have helped her when she needed it most.

I know nothing about her apart that she sang songs that weren't to my taste. So no speculation from me. That is apart from buying some shares in her record company (are they still called that?) Why do people dash out and buy the music of recently deceased singers?
