    She died @ the Hollywood Hilton? That certainly doesn't sound like natural causes-related.

    She's probably the most naturally gifted female singer of all time. Sad but not surprising.

    If there was any justice, Bobby Brown would fall over dead right now.

    I suppose I could have worded that better. Anyway, considering her age, her past, and where she died, I can only assume it was drug and/or alcohol-related.

    I read she was drinking and taking Xanax. My guess is she passed out in the bath tub and drowned.

    Can any of you old skulls post her best song? I didn't follow 20th century singers. So passé.

    Whitney is hardly a Saint. In fact she was a terrible mother and a serious drug addict. She smoked her royalties instead of leaving it to her children. She was an amazing artist, but a terrible human being.

    Okay I'm ready for the onslaught. Let me have it!
