Apparently has died...according to the editor of the Sunday Mirror on twitter...would be a sick joke if not true.

    RIP - a great voice, great songs but the lyrics hinted at the demons within.

    Seems to have been a drugs overdose.

    obviously sad for her family but i have trouble sympathising with people that have so much talent and wealth yet abuse it.

    she had many chances to sort her life out but didnt listen.

    She had serious mental health issues - I wouldn't be so quick to judge or condemn.

    Very very sad.

    A brilliant singer and writer who could have done so much had she given herself a chance.

    Both of the albums are great IMHO.

    Whatever some people might want to say just such a waste of great talent.

    It's sad when anyone dies, particularly someone so young.

    Have to say though, I'm not exactly surprised. She's been a total mess for a while now. Sad.

    Not sure I'd go with the "Alltime Great' that they keep banging on about the telly though.

  • The price for trying to handle fame. Many similar examples down the years both in sport & the music industry. God bless her.

    Blimey, it's only yesterday when I heard an interview where Tony Bennett described her as one of the best singers he has duetted with.

    Hopefully something good might come out of this and the image of drugs being "cool & Rock n Roll" (which she played a part in creating) may make some sit up and smell the coffee.

    Really don't want to be disrespectful to her family but her dad always came across as someone milking the fame and riding his daughters bandwagon (inc his cheesyTerry Venables type singing career) Rather than actually trying to help her.

    She could have achieved so much more. Such a great voice and after meeting her about 5 years ago (faimily member works in music industry) she really came across as a nice humble human being.

    And I hope you include the tabloid media in that and all those that never left her alone.

    I doubt this tragedy is going to put people off taking drugs, it never has done before. People will continue to take and die from drugs, it's a fact of life. Just need to show support and love to those with a drug problem and hope that they can get through that awful disease. RIP

    Not sure Doherty ever made any money out of her.
