    I didn’t know all of these celebs loved Amy Winehouse. I just wish some of them would’ve tried to give her a helping hand while she was here. *Sigh*…

  2. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    So when did Amy Winehouse became a Pop Icon?
    Get outta here!
    She was a talented but she was still just a 1 hit wonder.
    Now that she died everybody’s tryna make her into a saint,

    She only got 1 successful album.
    I repeat just 1.

    @rihannanavy

    As a fellow Rihanna Stan, stfu. You might wanna do research on her album sales booboo.

  4. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    Awww that is so nice !!

  5. Kbay July 30, 2011

    @rihannanavy

    WTF? BTB Sold like 12 Million copies…it shits on the whole Rihanna discography I’m sorry….:/
    Even if it’s just one album.
    Frank was quite successful as well…so you should stfu. You and the whole navy of all people!

  6. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    @JJFAN

    Get The F*** Outtta Here!
    Even if she sold 14 Million albums, 13 Million of them were from 1 album.
    So yeah, she only has 1 successful album…. that doesn t make u a POP ICON.

    She was more famous for being a mess than for her music these past few year. I mean, the last time she even made it into the news was because she got booed off stage.

    U GET REAL!

    @rihannanavy lauryn hill has one album and she is considered a icon amy music is epic not fast food music like rihannas just good for that moment. Amy BTB has many classics on it! Rihanna has 5 albums out and she no where near being a icon just an over exposed tart. Rihanna can’t even sing for s***!!!! She has no classic album. GGGB maybe but the rest are just trashy music and generic music eg. S&M reached numb 1 but its not going to memorable why? Cus its trashy meaningless generic music so let’s not

  10. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ BEY LOVE ON TOP B**** SHUT UP !!!
    S&M IS GOING TO BE A CLASSIC !!!

  11. bey love on top July 30, 2011

    @Jamir21 Yeah there’s s** in the air I love the smell of it wow real classy a classic for sure its no umbrella take a seat

  12. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 30, 2011

    Nothing against Katy, but she didn’t seem genuine to me.
    And what has she done to her hair???

  13. Kbay July 30, 2011

    @jamir21

    don’t even try man….i like her music too….but
    OMFGGGGGGGGGGGG fuckkkkkkkkkkkkk s&m really? really?!
    Out of all rihanna songs you had to name that song….about the smell of s** and bout being bad and bitchy…..OMFG LAAAAAAAAWD!!!!
    HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH i just can’t!!!!!!!!!!! HI-F*****-larious!!

  14. Rossie July 30, 2011

    S&M isn’t going to be a classic! what the f*** are the rihanna stans talking about?! they are soo ignorant sometimes
    S&M is a trashy song it’s all about selling s** everything rihanna does is selling s** nothing with any meaning and you could forget it she doesn’t even have the VOICE like amy!

  15. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    Umbrella is a classic !!

  16. RihannaStan July 30, 2011

    Pon De Replay, Umbrella, Love the Way You Lie, Don’t Stop the Music, and Only Girl are classics!!

  17. Ayo_ronnnie July 30, 2011

    RiP to Amy but Icon is a strong word. I hate when artist die ppl go crazy

  18. Jey July 30, 2011

    Are you guys stupid? S&M is NOT about s** or whatever. It’s a play on words saying she may be bad at singing and all these other things but shes good at being bad at what sh does. “I may bee bad I’m perfectly good at it”.

  19. TIMMI July 30, 2011

    @KISSES

    You can offer as much help as possible, but it doesn’t matter unless the person wants to help themselves. Amy had plenty people who she could turn to for help when she wanted it.

    @RIHANNANAVY

    You obviously need to take a seat as you do not know what you are talking about. Amy was never a “1 hit wonder”, she had several hits. And an artist can become a legend off one album if they truly have amazing talent. Haven’t you heard of Lauryn Hill?

  20. Tigerlashes July 30, 2011

    @rihannanavy lol to you, young one. 1 hit album? Not an icon?Thats how i know your some little dickhead hyping pop music, cos if you knew real music, you’d appreciate amy. Sending out voodoo thoughts to you still, b****.

  21. Tigerlashes July 30, 2011

    LOL @ rihanna making ‘classic’ songs. Oh really? Amy’s first and second album, plus her short lived career will forever s*** on rihanna’s. Disrespectful whores. Pah. Sit down.

  22. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ TIGERLASHES SO YOURE SAYING THAT REHAB IS A CLASSIC SONG….IDK !
    UMBRELLA IS A CLASSIC !

  23. KAT DELUNA FAN July 30, 2011

    RIHANNA STANS ARE SO ANNOYING -_-

    GOOD FOR KATY I LOVE HER.KEEP SMASHING THE CHARTS Mrs BRAND 🙂

  24. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    Oh please,
    Lauryn is consider on icon cus she also had a successful career as a memeber of the Fugees.

    BLAH BLAH BLAH’

    Rihanna has sold more albums than Amy CHECK
    Rihanna has sold more singles than Amy CHECK
    Rihanna has sold more tour tickets than Amy CHECK
    Rihanna has won more awards than Amy CHECK

    Rihanna will still be doing her thing while Amy ‘s career is DEAD & GONE.

    TRY ME AGAIN B****

  25. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    Honestly i think Amy was ahead of her time….but that was nice of Katy though !!

  26. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ Rihannanavy You should really stop !!

  27. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    Amy was so talented that she kept on getting booed of stage.

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    That’s what I hate about yall fake ass b******. As soon as somebody dies, suddenly yall tryna make them seem as if they were some holy perfection that could do no wrong… when most of yall were making fun of her foolish ways when she was alive.

    FAKE FAKE FAKE

  28. THATGAGA&BEYJUICE.NET (ISTANN4GAGA) July 30, 2011

    1-S&M isn’t going to be a “Classic”…The song Rihanna is going to be most remembered for was “Umbrella”.

    2-@Rihannanavy Lady Gaga also called Amy a pop star….and????

    3-@Kisses the stars COULD help her BUT she has to want the help/accept she has a problem.

    4-Can’t we have at least ONE discussion without bringing album sales into it????

  29. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    Yall even try to make Aaliyah into some innocent superstar when she was a basic broad no different than Ciara (except Ciara can dance).
    The same girl who got married at 16yo to some pervert just so he could produce her album. And then u have the nerve to call anybody a s*** or a w****?

    YALL ARE PHONIES

  30. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    S&M beats Umbrella !!

  31. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ RIHANNANVY STOP STOP IT NOW YOU PATHETIC LOSER !!!!!!

  32. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    Amy was a pop star.. barely. She was really more of an has-been at this point.
    But an ICON ?????

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  33. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 30, 2011

    @RIHANNANAVY It’s actually quite funny that you’re a Rihanna stan but you’re bashing artists like Aaliyah and Amy.Wake up and smell the coffee.

  34. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ ASAP B**** SHUT UP I READ YOUR COMMENT ON THAT CIARA POST !
    @ RIHANNANAVY JUST STOP IT PLEASE !!!!

  35. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 30, 2011

    Alright.WAIT…I just looked at some of the comments and I’m in shock.Seriously, someone said S&M is not about s**???So, if I make a song and call it ‘Guns & Bullets’ and talk about warriors, dead people and attacks, then the song is not about war, it’s just a wordplay.
    FOR GOD’S SAKE!!!

  36. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ ASAP ITS ACTUALLY NOT STUPID !!!!
    OKAY SOME PARTS…BUT NOT ALL !!!!

  37. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 30, 2011

    @the guy who tried to attack me
    First, you don’t know me like that, so don’t call me ‘b****’ and secondly, you’re bashing RIHANNANAVY too and I have nothing against Rihanna (which is obvious if you look at some of my other comments on HER posts), so what’s your problem exactly???

  38. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    @ ASAP OH WAIT I`M SORRY I DIDNT MEAN IT LIKE THAT….I`M SORRY I JUST WOKE UP ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE BED THIS MORNING….IT JUST THAT SOME LOSERS EX. RIHANNANAVY KEEPS ON BASHING PAST AWAY ARTISTS !

  39. pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy) July 30, 2011

  41. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    http://i56.tinypic.com/19urs2.jpg

  51. O s c a r July 30, 2011

    I was NOT talking to you.

  52. O s c a r July 30, 2011

    OK, so don’t sit up here trying to shade someone else when even Rihanna’s WORST singles (RS101, MD etc) still did better than you faves. She has yet to amass anything done by Rihanna, hell or even herself. (Whoever the f*** that chick is…) Now get it together. Thank you.

  53. pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy) July 30, 2011

    @KAT DELUNA :

    i wasn’t being delulsional ! but for real “whine up” and “umbrella” are a classics here in my country ” and a lot of other countries as well ” ! i do not consider US and UK the only countries in the world !

    “umbrella” is a very popular song “duhh” everyone and their moms , grandparents , know it ! and “whine up” is so f***** popular in clubs ! if u do not know then u better know that !
    i do not care about a song being a classic or not !

  54. DirrtyHancock July 30, 2011

    SO MAD FOR THE DOUBLE JUMP, GRAPE JUICE!!! S***, just put it on the page.

  55. jamir21: I STAN 4 THE BEEHIVE&THE NAVY !!!! July 30, 2011

    Hell even Rihanna`s most idiotic songs (g4l, hard, rude boy, skin) is more better than Kat Deluna entire music career !!

  56. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 30, 2011

    ‘Umbrella’ cannot be a classic because it was released 4 years ago.That means that we cannot yet determine whether it has stood the test of time or not.A song can only be named a classic when it’s still relatively popular and WIDELY remembered after AT LEAST 10 years.
    For now, Umbrella is one of the most successful singles of the last decade, so it’s remembered by music fans, but it will take a long time for it to become a classic, if it ever does

  57. KAT DELUNA FAN July 30, 2011

    @ASAP
    School them.Even if,Umbrella is a teenage song with great success.Rihanna need to do more mature music.A classic to me is a song you will sing at 70 years old w/o feeling umconfortable.
    Is Umbrella rihanna’s signature song?yes.A classic it’s not
    But you should know this

    @OSCAR
    WOOOW IDIOTIC ARGUMENTS.RIHANNA MUSIC BEING MORE COMMERCIAL MAKE IT CLASSIC?? SO BOOM BOOM POW IS A CLASSIC SONG.
    GIRL BYE
    EFF U.WHAT THE HELL AS KAT DELUNA ‘opera singing,dancing,songwriting gril’ AS TO DO WITH “MY” OPINION ABOUT A CLASSIC SONG?

    LMAOOO DONT BE MAD AT ME BECAUSE YOUR FAV HAS A CATALOG OF S***** STRIP CLUBS SOUNDING SONGS 😉

  58. YeaBey DON’T CURR IF THEY TALKIN 2MORROW July 30, 2011

    MESSY POST! *leaves*

  59. Tigerlashes July 30, 2011

    Hahaha oh my god, what a little girl you are. You sitting down on your fat backside, typing furiously on this website cos you so upset that people think amy is worth more than rihanna, sad b****. Trust me on this one, amy’s song writing, passion and sales will forever smother rihanna’s. Ri write her songs too? Nah. I seriously doubt rihanna herself would get this worked up over this topic so why the f*** are you? Loser. Shut up, pull your obsessive rihanna shitness outta this post and leave it. You couldn’t of made your self look any more bad, sheit, bet i bet even your mumma would be disappointed of you.

  60. DD July 30, 2011

    Yeah it is too bad that she couldn’t be “saved”. Even Dr. Drew claimed to have heard from Amy. And he didn’t do anything either. Isn’t he the Addiction Superman?

  61. Aryo July 30, 2011

    @rihannanavy
    ur so funny, u claim rihanna has sold more records than amy? IDIOT, rihanna has put 5 albums and a rerelease out but amy has just released 2 albums, and lets not forget that with 2 albums amy has more grammys than rihanna, and that rihannas best selling album has sold 8 million copies but back2black has sold 12 million copies so shut up and go to bed!

  62. ITSVERYPERRY July 30, 2011

    lovin the blond! amy is an icon with her voice, her style and her contribution 2 music. for all the people who say she’s a “one hit wonder” …being a 1 hit wonder means that u only have 1 famous song then ur DONE! like rebbeca black!!!! but she has sold gazillions of albums and won so many awards! she is not even close 2 a 1 hit wonder!

  63. mobwife ….”Tami needs her A** beat” July 30, 2011

    @RihannaNAVY

    B*tch you must be out of your mind talking trash about Amy Winehouse! She is the POP ICON R****** WILL NEVER BE! Amy was an actual talent, a singer, song-writer & musician! Which one of the aforementioned applies to RAGGEDY? Exactly NONE so STFU!

  64. RihannaNAVY July 30, 2011

    U shut the f*** up Mobwife

    Amy Winehouse was talented? PLEASE!
    Yall love to talk about Rihanna’s lyrics. How about Amy’s?
    “They tried to make me “go to rehab, I said NO NO NO”

    I mean is that what passes for talent nowaday? Glorifying being an addict!

    B**** please, sit your ass down!

    Rihanna is 10* the icon Amy could EVER BE.

    People aren t even missing her.., there was more coveraqe of Anna Nicole Smith’s death than that of Amy’s.

    There were Anna Nicole Smith special for MONTHSSSS on CNN, HLN……
    Anderson Cooper, Larry King… EVERYBODY just dedicated entire hours of their shown to her.

    That just tells u except for bloggers and music industry people, the average person just doesn t care much about Amy.

  65. iloverihanna>beyonceislame July 30, 2011

    RIHANNANAVY STFU. AMY WINEHOUSE WAS A POP CULTURE ICON. JUST CUZ YOU CAN’T BROADEN UR MIND BESIDES THE TYPICAL RIHANNA’S, GAGA’S AND BIEBERS DOESN’T MEAN THAT THERE ARN’T OTHER POP ICONS OUT OF YOUR BRAIN CAPACITY. BACK TO BLACK WON GRAMMY’S AND WAS A WORLDWIDE SUCCESSFUL ALBUM CUZ OF CONTENT AND LYRICS. SHE WAS A REAL MUSICIAN DUMBASS.

  66. Tigerlashes July 30, 2011

    No, get it right you eediyat. Kmt. You know what, god will follow your words and curse you to rass. Only reason why anna nicole smith was spoken about more is because in your country, she was more popular than amy, does it make sense yet? So it doesnt justify anything over amy’s death. Oh and you wanna cuss rehab? Aw, did ri ri write all her songs, like cfb? Mmm yes, very original. Amy can sing live. Ri cant. Haha you’re getting so pissed and angry too, its cool, im sure your idol will appreciate it in some way.

  67. iloverihanna>beyonceislame July 30, 2011

    @pop royalty there’s more to pop culture influence than just music….I hope you know that. It’s short for “popular”. Any person that listens to music or knew music….”real” music knew who amy winehouse was. Black to black was practically number one in several countries. A few numbers lower in america cuz america needs music dumbed down to a degree in order for it to be enjoyable. Yes, I like rihanna but that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate other stuff out there. Reason ppl liked amy’s music cuz it was real and it was about her genuine feelings expressed in depth. Not just to “sell” like any typical pop record.

  68. iloverihanna>beyonceislame July 30, 2011

    I’m sorry for the people that had to witness Rihannanavy’s ignorance tonight. Hopefully there are more rihanna stans that are enlightened and not bias fools. Smh. This makes me sad. Even Rihanna herself wrote her condoleses to Amy. She knew HERSELF amy was a pop icon. I don’t think there was anyone quite as unique as Amy from Britian from her style to honest lyrics…I could be wrong but not anyone that I know of before Amy. Despite her drugs issues, I hope people can remember her more for her musicianship than self destructive lifestyle.

  69. nice_gurl July 30, 2011

    That was nice of Katy, but I actually do not like her new hairstyle now. She should go back to brown. RIP Amy.

  70. hurtsdontit July 31, 2011

    If amy wasn’t talented than rihanna most def isn’t either. The fact that even on drugs she sounded better than Rihanna is saying something.
    10#’S mean nothing to me…and most people having true talent which is so rare theses days is….GGGB,Loud,AGLM,RR,MITS<Black to Black& Frank
    Don't get me wrong GGGB is my s*** but that's is the only respectable body of work Rihanna has ever put out

  71. YOOSONDALOOSE July 31, 2011

    She looks like she would like Amy (R.I.P) Katy has that unique talent as well.
    LOL, personmality actually.

  72. Faye July 31, 2011

    So fed of these celebs trying to get some publicity out of this poor woman’s death, STFU Katy shes only talking about Amy now to promote herself and her husband obviously didnt have a very “close friendship” to Amy because he wasnt even at her funeral and didnt care about when she was alive, I know for a fact if Amy was still alive none of these celebs would go near her and probably look down there noses at her, I have met Amy quite a few times before in a Camden pub and she was such a down to earth girl and very sweet she didnt care about celebrity lifestyle and was really a normal girl so sad when I heard she was dead, BTW to the delusional fools that think Rihanna is more talented than Amy why dont you go on youtube to see some of her performances, she is a much better singer than Rihanna in fact they shouldnt even be compared its a insult to Amy, album sales mean nothing look at Britney she cant sing to save her life and shes sold millions, anyway RIP Amy.

  73. iloverihanna>beyonceislame July 31, 2011

    Faye, Celebs arn’t trying to get publicity out of her death. Just cuz they are famous means they can’t be pay respects? I think you have the wrong idea. Russel brand did know amy and met her personally. Why does that matter that they are celebrities? That’s just like people saying ordinary everyday people should ignore her death cuz they don’t know her. *shrug*
