Tortured artist. Pff...
She's a drug riddled street rat who somehow managed to get a career in music.

Poster child for the drug fucked chav party-all-day-n-be-cool generation I always felt
same with Doherty, oxygen thieves living the dream.
In some ways glad it's ended this way to show the lifestyle's obvious failings as an aspiration.
Can't deny she had a damn fine voice when she was sober enough to use it tho, so there's some truth to the 'tortured artist' label.

^This all over.
I know some great artists out there do or did drugs (for example, Kurt Cobain), but they didn't make it their defining characteristic, like the select few.
And being critical here, I didn't really like Winehouse's music that much, but I guess that's just me. But seeing it from a universal standpoint, I agree that she did have a good voice when she felt like actually making music.
