She did have talent, but like some here have already mentioned, she had a better shot at recovery than someone who doesn't have money. I've seen people who lived in poverty and still managed to beat addiction.
 
So we're flying the American flag half-staff in New Jersey for a drugged-out pop star who basically committed suicide?

Kudos to the Mayor:)
 
Just to close the books on Whitney Houston: The toxicology reports are in.

The verdict is not surprising.
Washington Post said:
The L.A. County Coroner’s office issued a toxicology report this afternoon that said the official cause of the pop diva’s death was “drowning and effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use.”

...

“Cocaine and metabolites were identified and were contributory to the death,” the document states. “Marijuana, alprazolam (Xanax), cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) and diphenhydramine (Benadryl) were identified but did not contribute to the death.”
