"She was my musical soulmate and like a sister to me. This is one of the saddest days of my life."

Kelly Osbourne, a close friend of Amy's also posted a heartfelt tribute on her page:

Kelly and Amy were close friends.

 
Country singer LeAnn Rimes also paid tribute to the talented singer, saying:

"RIP Amy Winehouse. So sad to see such a talent gone and her life end in tragedy. This makes me terribly sad."

Radio DJ Fearne Cotton said: "Can not believe the news. Amy was a special girl. The saddest news."

Her untimely death means she joins the notorious '27 Club' of musicians who have died at that age after struggling to cope with fame. They include Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain who killed himself in 1994 by shooting himself, Rolling Stone Brian Jones, who drowned in a swimming pool in 1969 and guitarist Jimi Hendrix, who choked to death in 1970 after mixing wine with sleeping pills.

Kurt Cobain and other struggling musicians killed themselves at 27.

CNN host Piers Morgan also spoke about the sad news: "Such desperately sad news re Amy Winehouse. Supreme talent, terrible self-destructive addictive personality."

Presenter Phillip Schofield added: "Just heard the sad news that Amy Winehouse has died. At only 27 what a terrible waste of a great talent. Sincere condolences to her family."

Emma Bunton said: "Such sad news about Amy Winehouse. My thoughts are with her family."

Lily Allen was honest in her tribute, writing that Amy was struggling in life: "Its just beyond sad, there's nothing else to say. She was such a lost soul, may she rest in peace."

Singer Jessie J tweeted: "The way tears are streaming down my face. Such a loss."

And the tributes didn't end there. More of her fellow musicians took to Twitter to voice their sadness at the loss. Professor Green told fans: "I really hope she's at peace now. I don't wanna hear any chat about it's her own fault, addiction is a powerful demon."

Professor Green told fans not to diss Amy.

A tweet from pop band JLS read: "Times like this remind me why its so important to live life to the fullest!! Amy Winehouse you will be a LEGEND in all out hearts!"

Burlesque artist Dita Von Teese wrote: "Devastated. I spent extraordinary times with Amy. She sang for me once for hours, it was the most beautiful &touching thing. A huge loss."

Actress Demi Moore wrote on Twitter: "Truly sad news about Amy Winehouse. My heart goes out to her family. May her troubled soul find peace."

Chef Jamie Oliver wrote: "Such a terrible shame to loose Amy winehouse such a talent, such a waste, raw talent."

Presenter Davina McCall wrote: "Amy Winehouse found dead at her home. So very very sad. A huge talent."

Although this is a very sad time, and I do feel terrible for family, people do need to accept that this was her own fault and even though Professor Green said "addiction is a powerful demon" it is created by those who seek drugs or drink heavily.

Maybe this will stop a lot of other struggling addicts out there seek some help.
