Man, did she have a set of pipes! But she has looked really bad for many years.

Ann Margret still seems to have it going on! But as you say, many live hard and fast, and die young. I used to think that Lindsay Lohan would be the next Ann Margret. Wow, she (lindsay) had it all. is just peeing it all away.

I will be suprised if this is not drug related. 48 is way to young to die.

Found in her bathtub. Possible she drowned.
She spoke to Aretha Franklin earlier by phone.

I expect this to totally dominate the news for the next week and if nobody is looking the Politicians will pass some more sneaky laws in the middle of the night while everyone is mournin whitney!! Were lucky she didn,t pass on a friday or they would have raised the debt ceiling another trillion. She was a great singer but the media goes overboard and she will be Mother teresa by the end of the week.

Some might not think her passing away is a big deal.

I think of her of like when Elvis died.
Both were in the bathroom found dead, both were taking pills, both were struggling in their career when they died.

A bio on her:
Her list of awards includes two Emmy Awards, six Grammy Awards, 30 Billboard Music Awards, and 22 American Music Awards, among a total of 415 career awards as of 2010. Houston was also one of the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 170 million albums, singles and videos worldwide. In 2009, the Guinness World Records cited her as the most-awarded female act of all time.

Both had to hire goons to protect them from the paperazzi so they could take a dump without it being on the cover of people magazine!!!
