R.I.P. Whitney Houston

[corfy]

I just read that Whitney Houston has died.

The exact cause of death is unknown at this time.

she had problems on and off with drug abuse... I wouldn't put it past that...

so many celebrities dying because of drugs: both prescription and illegal and a combination or both plus alcohol.

Michael Jackson died because of prescription drugs, Brittany Murphy died because of prescription drugs.

The best thing to do is not to take any drugs, illegal or prescription; even the over the counter drugs are not good for the human body, especially for the kidneys and livers and abusing any of them - combined with alcohol- can lead to death!!

Some of her greatest songs:

When you believe - duet with Mariah Carey - Prince of Egypt Soundtrack



I will Always Love You - Bodyguard Soundtrack



US National Anthem - Superbowl XXV - regarded by commentators as one of the best renditions ever at a sporting event

I agree. It was asinine to put a half staff flag for this woman. She was a great singer, but that doesn't mean she should be honoured with a half staff flag. Putting her whole funeral on the news was too much as well.

Accidental Drowning...

mmmm.... sure

http://news.yahoo.com/whitney-housto...213436821.html

when you fall into a swimming pool or a lake or a pond or an ocean and drown, that's accidental drowning.

BUT NOT WHEN you have all that CRAP in your system

An autopsy into Houston's death found that the cause of death was accidental drowning with atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use listed as contributing factors, Los Angeles County Coroner's spokesman Craig Harvey said.

Harvey said toxicology tests also turned up marijuana, an anti-anxiety medication, a muscle relaxant and an anti-histamine in Houston's system.

It's because she's a famous celebrity that they ruled it like this.

If she was just a regular person like you and I, they would had ruled death due to drug overdose or caused by drugs!!
