Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London home. Cause of death has not been determined, but the 27-year-old recently spent time in rehab for alcohol and drug problems.

The Rehab singer joins the immortal list of celebrities who died at age 27, including Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. Initial reports say that the troubled star overdosed at her home, but few seem surprised that she finally succumbed to her addictions.
