Singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in her apartment in London.

The 27 year-old singer, long troubled by addiction issues, was reported dead by the Daily Mail in the UK.

So far there are little details, other than the singer was found unresponsive in her apartment and confirmed dead by the British newspaper.

Amy's last appearance was to support singer Dionne Bromfield and the boy band The Wanted as part of the iTunes festival in Camden. Supporting the 15-year-old Bromfield, Winehouse reportedly made it onstage during a performance of “Mama Said”, thanked the crowd for supporting Dionne, encouraged them to buy her album and left.

Amy joins other the 'dead at 27' late musicians: Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain and Brian Jones.

Developing.
