    RIP. Such a shame if it is linked to Drugs.

    Such a waste of talent.

    Howay man 5-1, lets not have some outpouring of emotion on the football board, particularly for some crack head who didn't have any self respect. This has been a car crash waiting to happen since the 90's!

    Q: What did Whitney Houston and Apollo 13 have in common?
    A: A major crack problem

    Everyone's a comedian nowadays, even the paramedic who was unable to resuscitate Whitney couldn't avoid the odd gag
    When he radioed dispatch and said "Its Houston, we have a problem".

    Nah no need for jokes in my opinion , would be pretty double standards after the whole Gary Speed saga with GC.

    I didn't really respect her as a person or an artist, great voice but not really my genre of music.

    I've found myself being annoyed about it all because I've seen so many people refer to her as a genius - she didn't even write her own music ffs...As I said, top singer, but little more!

    It turns out her death was caused by a combination of high drug use, alcohol issues, and Aaron Ramsey scoring against the mackems.

    Each to their own. But you have to accept people are gonna voice their opinion on her when you put tribute threads up on a football board.

    I had plenty of respect for Speed but fully understand people will makes jokes about famous dead people. Personally I wouldn't pass on or laugh at the Speed stuff because he was a legend to me. However I accept people will make jokes and I'm not offended by it. I didn't know Speed personally so would struggle to be gripped with emotion.

    I've laughed at Winehouse, Barrymore pool jokes, Jacko, the lot. Why? Because they were ****ing funny and clever. Getting upset about Speed etc for me would be double standards.

    As for Houston, as I say she was a tragic mess. She has a 18 yr old daughter, but can't give up the coke or prescription drugs? **** that man, her daughter has never seen her mother sober, that's a disgrace of an effort at parenting in 18 years.
