I suspect just like Michael Jackson & Elvis, they knew everyone around them worked for them, and they were the boss. They could fire anyone and replace them with someone else that would provide the drugs they wanted. I am sure a few employees said no I will not get you the drugs, and they were just fired and replaced.

It is 100% the star that killed themselves. They did not really mean to die, but they were just out of control.

Whitney, MJ & Elvis all died from their own addictions. Along with Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendricks and John Bonham and a host of others that killed themselves with drugs. Some of the lucky ones like Ozzy have survived, but only because they were lucky.

She was not sober, and taking a muscle relaxing medication too boot. Combine the two and it relaxes people. Had she done any coke before this it would have tended to kept her awake, so your argument makes no sense.

She drowned, period. Did she abuse other medications and drugs? Hell yes, but it did not kill her, the water in the bathtub and thus in her lungs did...

My mother in law took our 10 year old daughter and her cousin to LA for a Christmas present visit to the American Girl outlet. Good clean wholesome fun. They stayed at the Beverly Hilton and were there when this all went down. Excitement about being in the same building with Alicia Keys turned into a media/fan/public nightmare that was hard to shelter the little girls from. It was a bit disconcerting to have my daughter text us on her grandmothers phone that the body wasn't going to be moved until later...... They were allowed too much information. She is still acting a bit overwhelmed and emotional. Pop stars tarnish life as much as they brighten it.
