With any celeb treated this way, the outcome was inevitable.
She was so troubled. I remember the first time I saw her - and was bowled over by her - on Jools Holland's NYE show. She stood at the mic, both hands desperately clutching and tugging at the hem of her short dress. I knew right away that she had demons. Poor girl

She offers the world her greatest gift and they torture her very soul. Humans can be utterly horrid creatures.
Rest In Peace you beautiful soul.
