Whitney Houston, dead.

First Michael Jackson, then Amy Winehouse, and now Whitney Houston.
In quite a short period of time, 3 major artists have died.
And quite young too, from being unstable, with drugs, alcohol ecetera.

I remember when Michael Jackson died. The information I could remember was his doctor being someone - 'Murray', and that he died of a heart attack (?)
My brother and I were quite silly, but we came up with the 'truth' behind this 'murder'. Murray was related to Andy Murray (the British number 1 tennis player, but sometimes Scottish), and attacked his heart with a tennis racket, making it a 'heart attack'.

When Amy Winehouse died, we were on holiday in Amsterdam, and it was around the same time of the Oslo attacks. So our nights at the hotel were glued to the tv. In fact I never really watch the news, so I probably would not have known about it if I were not on holiday (I only watch the news when on holiday).

I don't remember how I found out about MJ's death, but I remember the whole school talking about it, and I was one of the first ones in school so I heard a lot of 'did you know...', so in the end I wrote a little poster saying 'Yes, we know MJ's dead' and stuck it to our form room.

And Whitney Houston. Ashamedly, I found out of facebook.
'R.i.p. Whitney Houston'
'R.i.p. Whitney Houston'
'Amy Whinehouse dies everyone bangs on about it, Whitney Housten dies hardly anything is said, its a sad world.'

Then I quickly google her name, to check if its true. (Wikipedia has already updated to include her death!). Yeah, its true. Then I wrote a blog post about it.


It took me forever to work out R.i.p. stands for rest in peace. I just thought it mean rip, or was latin or something.
Oh, and now brother tells me it is latin.

Will my life of lies and deceit never cease?
