Yup Clarkey we said that in work a few weeks ago when she failed in Serbia, her lifestyle is what killed her, cant wait to see what Pete Doherty says.

I don't think you'll get torrents of abuse, however, no-one knows what her state of mind was except her, and although she was a drug addict in the public eye, it doesn't mean that she wanted that. Drugs screw people up, who knows what control she had or didn't have over her life.

No-one deserves the death that she was dealt. She may have been stupid to get involved in drugs in the first place, but it's wrong to say she deserved it.

She probably did know the risks before taking drugs, but what may seem like a bit of fun at the start turns to a nightmare when you become dependent on it. Also you don't know (I assume) what caused her to start drugs in the first place, it's easy to assume why.

It's easy for people that don't do drugs to say they are completely to blame for their own fate, but no-one truly knows her life except her.

Well, she was probably one of the current celebs most likely to die soon due to the kind of totally unhealthy life she had. Dieing at age 27 is indeed a sad thing, so much she could have achieved, if she didn't go that path...

For all of her problems, she was an incredibly talented singer and songwriter. Rest in peace.

However many there are, always sad to lose another human being.
And as Mordack said, damn shame about the wasted talent.

I bought the Frank album on the strength of one live performance on Jonathan Ross before she was well known, had the search hoping to find an album and finally found it in the experimental Jazz section of Virgin Megastore. Guess before she got famous they didnt know how to classify her music.

Loved her music, sad that she couldnt handle her own success, shameful how the media hounded her and horrible that she's dead. A great loss to music and no 3rd album for me :(
