Amy Winehouse, 27, found dead in London home after canceling concert tour

Amy Winehouse, the British pop singer whose hard-partying ways often overshadowed her soulful singing, has died at just 27, police confirmed.

The tortured songstress, who had a history of substance abuse and shot to fame with the song "Rehab," was found dead Saturday in her London flat, according to police.

"Inquiries continue into the circumstances of the death at this early stage. It is being treated as unexplained," a police spokesman said.

London Ambulance Services said the singer died before ambulance crews arrived. The cause of death was not immediately known.

"We are deeply saddened at the sudden loss of such a gifted musician, artist and performer," her record label Universal said in a statement. "Our prayers go out to Amy's family, friends and fans at this difficult time."

Winehouse, with her trademark beehive hairdo and sailor-style tatoos, went global when her 2006 album "Back to Black" won five Grammy's.

The album featured the song "Rehab," which includes the chorus: "They tried to make me go to rehab, I said, 'No, no, no.'"

The troubled Londoner pulled out of her European tour last month after being jeered at her comeback show in Serbia because she appeared to be too drunk to perform.

She sang garbled versions of her songs and frequently left the stage for 90 minutes. After the breakdown, her management vowed she would take time off to recover.

"I didn't go out looking to be famous," Winehouse told the Associated Press when "Back to Black" was released. "I'm just a musician."

Since then, the singer has been better known for drunken fights, stints in hospital and rehab clinics, making her fodder for the gossip pages and late-night TV talk shows.

Winehouse was born in 1983 to a taxi driver dad, Mitch Winehouse, and his pharmacist wife, Janis. She grew up in the suburbs of northern London and leaned toward performing at an early age.

At 10, she started a rap duo, Sweet 'n' Sour, with Winehouse as Sour. She went on to attend a school for British music and acting, and then to a performing arts academy in the style of "Fame."

Initially signing with "Pop Idol" producer Simon Fuller's 19 Management, Winehouse refused to become a packaged star.

She debuted in 2003 with the critically celebrated, jazz-influenced album, "Frank," but then entered a slump during which she had a bad breakup and suffered writer's block. She later said she also smoked a lot of marijuana during the period.

"At one point it had been two years since the last record and (the record company) actually said to me, 'Do you even want to make another record?' I was like, 'I swear it's coming.' I said to them, 'Once I start writing I will write and write and write. But I just have to start it.'"

That led to the album "Back to Black," which brought her global fame.

Since then Winehouse's managers have gone to increasingly desperate lengths to keep the star on the straight and narrow.

She was investigated by police, but never charged, after a a video emerged that appeared to show her smoking crack cocaine.

In 2010 she pleaded guilty to assaulting a theater manager who asked her to leave a family Christmas show because she was drunk.

A judge fined Winehouse and warned her to stay out of trouble before praising her for trying to get clean.

Winehouse had a brief marriage to music industry hanger-on Blake Fielder-Civil, which ended in 2009.

Super 15 Celebrities Movie Transformations

Celebrities endure hours in the chair getting poked and painted within an inch of their lives. And yet, it’s all worth it to see these stars’ characters transformations in some of the finest examples of makeup artistry, special effects, and costume design.

Eddie Murphy, ‘The Nutty Professor’

Makeup artist Rick Baker did it again with ‘The Nutty Professor,’ earning himself an Academy Award for his incredible job transforming Eddie Murphy into Sherman Klump, a well as his entire family in sequel, ‘The Klumps.’ Murphy essentially disappears under the mountain of chins, cheeks and rolls.

 Jim Carrey, ‘Dr. Suess’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas’
 

Time in the makeup chair: 4 hours to apply and an hour to remove each day for five months
For his role as the Grinch, Jim Carrey endured five months of a ‘hair’ suit, consisting of individually dyed yak hairs hand swen onto a lycra spandex suit. It took makeup artist extraordinaire Rick Baker 4 months to make it.As for his face, Carrey was slathered in makeup and rubber and even had to wear oversized contact lenses, which, he explained, ‘really push you over the edge.’

 John Travolta, ‘Hairspray’
 

Time in the makeup chair: 4-5 hours/day
 Travolta’s transformation into Edna Turnblad, a character originally played by Devine, included a fat suit, wig, plenty of makeup, as well as having to get used to treated differently.The actor described his experience, telling movieweb.com, ‘You know how, with a pregnant woman, everyone feels like they have the right to touch her stomach? And sometimes her breasts? Where does that come from? Why do you feel you suddenly have this right? Well, everyone felt they had the right to touch my breasts and my bottom. I must have been a slut, because I said, “Go ahead.”

 Marlon and Shawn Wayans, ‘White Chicks’
 

Time in the makeup chair: 7 hrs/day each 
Transforming African-American brothers Marlon and Shawn Wayans into blond, blue-eyed hotel heiresses for the 2004 comedy, ‘White Chicks’ took over seven hours a day, per actor. The process was long and arduous, and included making plaster casts of the brothers’ faces.

 Ron Perlman, ‘Hellboy’

Time spent in the makeup chair: 2.5-5 hours/day 
Jake Garber, the makeup artist for both ‘Hellboy’ and ‘Hellboy 2,’ explained to howstuffworks.com that Perlman’s makeup was all foam prosthetic pieces, including his pecs, a skull cap, and full-facial prosthetic that covered everything except his lower lip.

 Mike Myers, ‘Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me’

With the help of Oscar-nominated makeup artists Michele Burke and Mike Smithson, Mike Myers went from Hollywood actor to ’60s British playboy Austin Powers faster than you can say, ‘Do I make you horny, baby?’ Myers was fitted with a bad wig and even worse fake teeth, as well as an abundance of body hair.

 Ralph Fiennes Lord Voldemort ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’

To create He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, the essence of evil in the wizarding world, creature effects supervisor Nick Dudman and his team of artists subscribed to the theory of less is more. They used minimal prosthetics to make Ralph Fiennes’ skin look sallow and translucent, with veins running down his skull, arms and hands. In post-production, visual effects were used to digitally re-shape Fiennes’ nose, flattening it and adding slits to make it look snakelike.

 Johnny Depp, ‘Alice in Wonderland’

As Depp put it, ‘It was a couple of solid hours in the makeup chair everyday but it really helped. You start to understand who the guy is through all that weird kind of Carrot Top kabuki,’ the actor told EW.

 Helena Bonham Carter, ‘Alice in Wonderland’

Time in the makeup chair: 3 hours/day 
Makeup artist Vallie O’Reilly slathered Helena Bonham Carter in white powder, blue eyeshadow, painted eyebrows, and heart-shaped lips to transform her into the Red Queen. In post production, the special effects team enlarged the actress’ head.

 Rebecca Romijn as ‘Mystique’ in ‘X-Men’ and ‘X-2′

Time in the makeup chair: 8-9 hours/day 
Playing the shape-shifting, head-to-toe blue Mystique in the X-Men franchise was no easy task for former Victoria’s Secret model Rebecca Romijn. Sure, she’s modeled panties, but being nude except for body paint and covered in scales? Not exactly model behavior.

 Benicio Del Toro ‘The Wolfman’

Time in the makeup chair: 3 hours/day
 The Wolfman’’s makeup artist, six-time Oscar winner Rick Baker, divulged all the details of Benicio Del Toro’s terrifying costume in an interview with EW. ‘The part that covers his nose and his brow is what we call an appliance. It’s made up of a foam, latex piece with tissue-thin edges that covers part of Benicio’s face and blends into his own skin,’ Baker explained. ‘Then we have a wig and dentures that change his teeth into the giant Wolfman teeth. Most of the hair on his face is what we call ‘aid.’ It’s actually loose hair that we apply little bits at a time with glue to his face.

 Martin Lawrence, ‘Big Momma’s House 2′

Martin Lawrence squeezed himself into a 40-50 lb. bodysuit and full-body prosthetic makeup to portray Big Momma not once, but twice. Now that’s getting into character!

 Brad Pitt, ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’

First, makeup artists cast a mold of Pitt’s head, and then, as David Ulbrich, Digital Domain’s executive vice president for production explained to the NY Times, ‘They created a sculpture of him well into his 80s, and then did another one of him in his 70s, another one of him appearing to be in his 60s.’  Then, using a motion-captures system, they scanned Pitt’s face through more than 120 expressions. After using body doubles and image-analysis software, Pitt’s electronically aged face was inserted into film footage.

 Robin Williams, ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’

Time in the makeup chair: 4.5 hours/day 
In ‘Mrs. Doubfire,’ comedian Robin Williams plays Daniel, an out-of-work voice actor who transforms himself into a 60-year-old British nanny to spend time with his kids after his wife files for divorce. While Daniel gets his brother to create his nanny costume, the actual makeup process took 4.5 hours to put on. But it was all worth it — the film won an Academy Award for Best Costume.

 

Emma Thompson, ‘Nanny McPhee’

Time in the makeup chair: 1 hour/day

British actress Emma Thompson is always stunning on the red carpet, but in a 2005 interview, she revealed it only took makeup artists an hour to transform her into witch-like granny Nanny McPhee for the children’s movie of the same name.To get into character, the then-46-year-old thespian, who actually wrote the film’s script, received a bulbous nose, a furry eyebrow, two hairy warts, and a massive snaggle tooth.

Bollywood Actresses Without Make-Up

Mugdha Godse

The ‘Fashion’ babe turned heads with her glam look in the movie. However, she shocks everyone with her horrendous avatar in this picture. Far from a fashionable babe, Mugdha looks more like roadside model than a runway queen.

Lara Dutta

The ex-Miss Universe is known for her impeccable style everywhere. Sadly, Lara gets caught in a not-so-appealing get-up and we can surely say that this is a rare happening and she surely does not disappoint very often.

Preity Zinta

 We can’t say that Preity looks ugly without make-up, but she definitely does not look as attractive. She seems stripped off her natural looking radiance.

Aishwarya Rai

Admitted that she is one of the most the most beautiful women, but that too has to be credited to her skilful make up. She does not exactly look ugly but her age shows without her make-up.
Tanushree Dutta

 She not a regular starlet but she has always tried to portray a glamorous image. In this pic she looks like a lost case and she does not look very happy about it.

Sushmita Sen

 Sush is our ultimate style diva and we always love her. However, Sush seems to be too caught in motherhood and her difficult career to pay too much attention to her make-up. She looks tired and lack luster without her make-up.

Urmila Matondkar

 Urmila looks like she has just woken up after ages of hibernation. She has scared viewers with her horror films but she scares onlookers, this time around by presenting her natural look in public.

Karisma Kapoor

Karisma proves that looking good is in her family. Just like sister Kareena, she too looks radiant without a trace of make-up on her skin. Call it the bliss of new motherhood or naturally blessed genes, Karisma looks picture perfect with and without make-up.

Hi-5: Celebrity Goths

The word “goth” has almost been phased out in popular culture, replaced with “scene,” “emo,” and the like. This is rather unfortunate, all things considered: for while many goth males are irritating, pretentious, and pathetic, goth women have the potential to embody a very special, very unusual sort of hotness. Here’s five of them.

Evan Rachel Wood

Why not start off with the most unconventional entry on the list? One wouldn’t think to classify Evan Rachel Wood as a goth: she’s got the blonde, All-American Girl look going on, and she goes by her full, three-part name (whereas many goth women tend to go by one-word pseudonyms like “Lilith” or “Cambria”).

Hell, even examining the girl’s film career results in very little gothitude. One stereotypically counterculture character in Running With Scissors notwithstanding, Wood seems to portray generally “normal” roles.

However – and this is a big however – one need only examine her choice in men to know that, deep, deep down, Wood is a princess of the night. A few months ago, Wood started dating Marilyn Manson, and recent rumors suggest that the pair might even get married. Inaccurate rumors of pedophilia aside (Manson is literally twice Wood’s age), “have you ever dated Marilyn Manson” might as well be on the top of the “Are You A Goth” questionnaire, followed immediately by “is your skin the color of: chalk/milk/stucco (circle one)”. Marilyn Manson is a somewhat decent guy – there’s nothing particularly wrong with dating him, aside from the fact that it prevents you dating men who aren’t Marilyn Manson – but it stands to reason that if you exchange bodily fluids, you must have a little bit of goth in you.

Literally.

Liz Vicious

You know what’s really hard? Typing “Liz Vicious” into Google image search and finding a picture that isn’t at least 75% comprised of vajayjay.

Given the fact that Vicious is a porn star, she embodies a very specific subculture within the Goth society: the Gothslut. She, of course, makes a living out of it, but she also personifies that one chick everybody knew in high school who, for all her fishnets and mascara and black fingernails, would be more than willing to do the deed with anyone, should they take her to a late-night screening of the Rocky Horror Picture Show and not insult The Cure.

In the realm of porn stars, Vicious is one of the more popular Goth actresses. I say “popular” loosely, because the whole goth craze hasn’t really caught on with mainstream porn (outside of occasionally dressing more popular actresses in faux-goth attire for one or two photoshoots, anyway). Still, though: she’s here, she’s goth, and she spends a great majority of her time on the Internet buck-ass naked.

Go ahead and do a Google search; I’ll wait.

Dita von Teese

Look, it’s Marilyn Manson girlfriend number two – or should I say, wife. Dita Von Teese was married to Manson for about a year, but filed from divorce for him when he started quasi-dating – wait for it – Evan Rachel Wood. On second thought, maybe Marilyn Manson is kind of a douchebag.

Anyway, Von Teese is considered one of the biggest burlesque models working in America today. It’s widely considered (and by “widely,” I mean “Wikipedia says so”) that Von Teese helped instigate the modern burlesque revival in the mainstream modeling scene. Yeah, I didn’t know there had been a revival, either.

From her dyed black hair (it’s naturally blonde) to her classic build, Von Teese is the spitting image of Bettie Page, or any other sexy burlesque model of the time. In the 1940’s, Von Teese would have been considered a popular underground sex symbol: today, she toes the line between underground and mainstream, but her intentionally retro style and damn near black-and-white body do make her something of a neo-goth. Her personality doesn’t necessarily suggest this (Manson notwithstanding), but it’s impossible to say that the same men who find Goth chicks attractive wouldn’t also find Von Teese pretty damn hot.

Asia Argento

A pretty talented chick in her own right, Asia Argento (daughter of horror legend Dario Argento) has directed and written a few films of her own, in addition to starring in everything from arthouse fare to American horror schlock (Land of the Dead).

The Italian beauty combines the body of a model with the attitude of an artist and the face of a very attractive goth who may or may not have had a heroin addiction in the past.

It’s almost erroneous to pigeonhole her into the simple “goth” stereotype, but it fits in many ways – she writes poetry, she has several tattoos (including an enormous angel on her crotch), and she writes films with titles like “The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things.” If the goth shoe fits, wear it, have a great deal of sex with it, and then ask it to speak Italian to you while you drift to sleep.

Rose McGowan

Perhaps the queen of quasi-mainstream goth chicks, Rose McGowan earned the number one spot pretty damn easily. In addition to having dated Marilyn Manson for a hell of a long time (hardly a surprise at this point in the list), the woman also starred in a TV show about goddamned witches, not to mention her appearance in one of the most nihilistic, goth-centric American films of the 1990’s (The Doom Generation – look out for the scene where a guy jerks off whilst watching two people have sex, and then licks the semen off his hand).

Additionally, McGowan’s home life seems like the sort of thing most Goths wish they could have lived through, just so they’d have an excuse to be miserable all the time. Without getting into lengthy specifics, consider the fact that Rose McGowan only did Bio-Dome to pay for her drug-addicted brother’s legal fees.

Beyond her personality, McGowan simply looks like the ideal Goth woman: she has a great body, black hair, insanely pale skin, and a face that makes one think that a plastic surgeon removed McGowan’s original face, replaced it with a makeshift model made up of Marilyn Monroe’s features, gave it a butt-chin, then smashed it with a tenderizing mallet a few times before reforming the whole thing. McGowan is one of those actresses who can look insanely hot given the right circumstances (Grindhouse), or slightly demonic in the wrong ones (the premiere for Grindhouse). Plastic surgery does that to you.

Top 10 Celebrity Butterfaces

It’s happened to all of us. You see a chick with long luscious legs. Right above those is a tight, firm rear. Next is their slim waist and chiseled abs. And then comes the breasts. Either large and augmented or natural and perky, it doesn’t matter, they all have them and they are spectacular.

But then she turns around or you get a good look at her face and it makes your stomach turn. Collagen swollen lips, cheeks tucked into foreheads and man-like features are enough to disappoint any man. It’s a case of the butterface.

These aren’t your girl next doors, but as celebrities, we’d like to think these women have to be held to a higher standard. So here are our top ten women that are super-hot from the neck-down but need some work upstairs.

10. Hilary Swank

She was in Boys Don’t Cry where she won an Oscar for playing a man in a movie. That pretty much assures that you won’t be on Victoria’s Secret short list for their next Angel. But when you sculpt your body into a machine with chiseled abs, tight ass, and toned everything, men will take notice. Too bad getting your next Oscar makes you perfect as a look-alike for a butch chick boxer.

9. April Scott

Nothing can compare to April’s long legs, a spectacular ass and great tits in a g-string and push-up bra. Too bad the compliments end there. She’s yet another “model” who’s posed in too many face flattering over-the-shoulder shots. Her claims to fame are b-listed to no end. Only thumb-nailed shots trick you into thinking she’s actually hot.

8. Haylie Duff

The gene pool in this family got a little shallow after younger sister Hilary graced us with her presence. Poor, poor Haylie got the short end of the stick when it came to the neck-up department, and is doomed to forever be Hillary’s older, uglier sister. But with her smoking body she’s assured a pity lay by some B-actor and continued “fame.”

7. Christina Ricci

When your first major role is on the Addams Family as Wednesday, you know you're going to make this list. Peel the Goth gear away though and she’ll make any man howl. She showed what she had in Prozac Nation and her all-natural body isn’t as scary as her face. There’s no wonder why Samuel Jackson would slap a leash on her and keep her as a pet. Now that’s what I call reparations.

6. Lisa Rinna

This Former Days of Our Lives cast member and more recently “contestant” on Dancing with the Stars certainly has a body that won’t quit. And for being 43 and popping out two kids, her body is one of the best in the business. Too bad she couldn’t resist buying some DSLs that make her face look utterly busted and ridiculous.

5. Rebecca Loos

Rebecca is more proof guys think with their other, smaller head. As personal assistant to billionaire David Beckham, it’s clear what two credentials got her hired. That, and the fact that she’s openly bisexual. Taking that into consideration it’s easy to forgive Beckham for not looking directly at her face when he hired her.

4. Tori Spelling

With a face like hers only two things could get her a big break on a show filled with beautiful people: her smoking body and her last name. But there she is, cast as the ugly best friend the other hot chicks in Beverly Hills confide in. Only a paper bag makes her bangable - that and the piles of money daddy gave her.

3. Vida Guerra

With a body (and ass) like hers it’s easy to forget what Vida actually looks like. But inevitably, one's eyes wander above the torso and neck area and after that it’s game over. Once again, cunning photographers put her best asset forward while keeping her looking over her shoulder in that all too familiar busted-face pose. She better watch out, the guy with the ugly stick is still right behind her.

2. Carmit

The only Pussycat Doll that could make you say me-ewww once you got a good look at her. It’s a good thing they keep her at or near the back of the pack. Even her magazine “glamour” shots conveniently place her in the busted-face over-the-shoulder-ass-protruding pose. She is living proof that sometimes talent and a smoking body alone can make you a sex symbol.

1. Fergie

Fergie started as the hot chick in the Black Eyed Peas and was the only reason to sit through one of their music videos. Her dancer inspired body is one of the hardest and hottest in the music and entertainment industry. Now her solo career has thrust her into the limelight and it’s way too bright. Besides her gnarly man-hands, the good doctor got a tad ambitious with all the nips, tucks and peels, making her look downright scary.

Don’t think that you got off easy if you weren’t on this list. Some un-honorable mentions include:

Chloe Sevigny: She is better known for her on-screen BJ and happy ending than her headshots.

Gina Gershon: She’s got a smoking body but her gi-normous lips make her look like a bee attack victim.

Nikki Cox: With her long legs and great boobs she gets us all excited until you get a good look at her joker-like face.
