Amy Winehouse Dead: Struggled with Substance Abuse and Mental Health Issues throughout Her Life

Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London apartment on Saturday (July 23).

Amy Winehouse rose to international acclaim in 2006 with the breakout album "Back to Black", featuring her now tragic signature song "Rehab". "Back to Black" went multi-platinum and earned Winehouse five Grammys. She had long struggled with substance abuse and mental health issues. And she did not hide this. Some of her songs did have power, and some of that power-- the way the emotion of the music translated and was so affecting-- came from Amy Winehouse's willingness to put herself on the line, to be personal and vulnerable to a not always forgiving public, to make the music that it was honest for her to make, even before it was commercially viable, to inhabit her own worst moments and sing them over and over again for other people, even when part of her struggle became struggling with the ways in which she had become public, and the ways that people treat public figures as if they owe something to somebody.

Amy Winehouse cancelled her European comeback tour in June following a disastrous show in Belgrade in which the singer was obviously under the influence. The cause of death remains unknown.

The First Avenger: Captain America Review, Pictures, Wallpapers

If you've seen the excellent trailer for Captain America, congratulations, you've seen 90% of the movie. I know the math doesn't exactly support this claim, but trust me, maybe there was voodoo involved. The first half of the WWII-era film centers on weak little Steve Rogers' super steroid-fueled transformation into the titular hero. It's enjoyable and there's some clever commentary on America's tendency to turn its heroes into propaganda. Once that suit is on, however, the good Captain becomes just another Neo. He flies across the screen in slow motion, eliminating faceless baddies with elegant ease and performing feats that even Superman would find impressive. Chris Evans does a fine job as the rather generic hero, but watching Stanley Tucci and Tommy Lee Jones ham it up in ancillary roles is far more entertaining. And Hugo Weaving, who plays the supernatural Nazi villain du jour, really nails his German accent while trying to take over the world with an advanced superweapon that basically amounts to "ray gun."

Captain America obviously exists only to familiarize young viewers with the somewhat archaic hero and get him in place for Marvel's upcoming Avengers movie. Although this is accomplished quite swimmingly, it is done so without notable humor, sex appeal or suspense. Whoever hired Joe Johnson got exactly what he wanted.

First Look at "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn"

We won't have to wait until November 18 to find out which designer's wedding dress will be featured in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1. From the pictures below we can get access to some scenes in the films.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart

Twihards eagerly anticipate the last installments of the Twilight Saga, as the film adaptation of Breaking Dawn has been split into two parts, with the first releasing November 18th and the second coming out November 16th, 2012. A trailer for Part One hit the internet Monday and has already gathered almost four million views on YouTube.

Taylor Lautner

Taylor Lautner, who plays muscular werewolf Jacob Black, was almost recast after appearing in the first film. Physicality was an issue: "He's described as being 6-foot-5 in the second book," New Moon director Chris Weitz said of Jacob.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in Breaking Dawn

Eclipse, the third film in the series which was released last summer, took home a number of MTV Awards on Monday. In addition to the "Best Movie" award, Eclipse picked up trophies for Best Male Performance (Robert Pattinson), Best Female Performance (Kristen Stewart), Best Fight and Best Kiss.

Ashley Greene, Kristen Stewart

Ashley Greene, who plays vampire Alice Cullen, has claimed she has yet to see the Breaking Dawn trailer. She also has said she wants to play older, more action-centric roles in any post-Twilight projects: "If you could find a strong female role in an action film, that is one of the most sought-after parts for women."

Elizabeth Reaser, Maggie Grace, Casey LaBow and MyAnna Buring

Elizabeth Reaser, who plays Edward's mother Esme, recently spoke of the film's wedding scene, which sees Edward marrying Bella. While she has said it will turn out "beautiful" on screen, the weather proved uncooperative during shooting: "It was raining and freezing and everybody was uncomfortable, but when we were rolling, it was the most beautiful moment."

Mia Maestro, Christian Camargo

Mia Maestro, who plays Carmen Bella, also has other post-Twilight roles lined up. She will appear as a young mother abducted by a hitchhiker in the Eduardo Rodriguez-penned The Darkness of the Road.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart

To take advantage of tax credits, much of the film was shot in Louisiana. Other locations included Vancouver, British Columbia, Baton Rouge and St. Thomas Island in the Caribbean; filming began on November 1st, 2010, in Brazil.

Twilight - Breaking Dawn, Part 1

Controversy has surrounded the film, as Breaking Dawn has a decidedly more mature tone than its predecessors. Kristen Stewart has said that the film's birth scene is much tamer than the novel's: "It could been shocking and grotesque, because that's how it was written in the book. I would have loved to have been puking up blood."

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart

Bill Condon will helm the final two installments of the franchise. He is best known for directing critically-acclaimed films including Chicago, Kinsey and Showgirls. He won an Adapted Screenplay Oscar in 1999 for Gods and Monsters.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart

Twilight author Stephanie Meyer, screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg and producer Wyck Godfrey are featured in the trailer (all three can be found at the 55-second mark.)

Michael Sheen, Jamie Campbell Bower

Actor Michael Sheen, who plays villain Aro, has promised fans that the film will stray from the book in certain instances: "Without giving too much away, there are things that stay very true to the book, but there are a couple of things that I think will draw gasps of breath from people."

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart

Despite poor weather conditions, Pattinson maintained that filming the wedding scene wasn't difficult for him, as all he had to do was "stand there" while Stewart walked the aisle. Pattinson, who recently appeared in Francis Lawrence's Water for Elephants, will also star in Bel Ami with Uma Thurman; the film is set for an October 19th release.

Taylor Lautner

Lautner also rides a motorcycle in his new movie Abduction, about a teenager who discovers his parents are not his blood relatives. Abduction releases September 23, 2011.

Watch "The Amazing Spider Man" Trailer YouTube Video Here

Soon after Warner Bros. released the first teaser trailer for "The Dark Knight Rises", the third installment of the rebooted Batman franchise Sony Pictures has officially released "The Amazing Spider Man" teaser trailer. Spider Man series movies are deeply loved by fans all over the world. And its abrupt ending brings everything to an informal close. Now, with this trailer, fans are hooked again. Just one day after the trailer for "The Dark Knight Rises" leaked, it was quickly taken down. While the film follows the same original storyline as the Tobey Maguire-led movies, the trailer shows some definite change in tone (much darker.).

Like The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spider-Man won’t hit theaters until next summer, but fan interests in both are sky-high. In the latter case, the back story is also of interest: Sam Raimi, who directed the three most-recent Spider-Man films, featuring Tobey Maguire, was set to make a fourth installment, but decided he couldn’t do so and maintain artistic credibility. So, a mere nine years after the first Spider-Man in that series premiered, Sony decided to start over again with Spider-Man’s creation story.

The Amazing Spider-Man releases July 3, 2012. Next summer is packed full of greatness for comic book fans, and it can’t get here soon enough. Let's just wait and see and I do believe it won't let you down.

Rebecca Black "My Moment" New Single YouTube Music Video Download

Viral queen Rebecca black has finally released the follow-up to her online smash hit "Friday" in the form of the more cutesy, inspiring pop ballad called "My Moment" - The song all in all is kinda 'meh' but nevertheless it's a huge step up from 'Friday', so kudoz are in order. It's got better lyrics (the haters-dedicated bridge is 'meow!'), and more real singing by Rebecca, although yeah 'some' auto-tune can still be perceived. Best of luck to her! It's her time to prove she's not a one-hit wonder. "My Moment" debuted on YouTube with an accompanying music video on July 18th, 2011 and the single was released digitally the following day on iTunes.

Download YouTube Rebecca Black "My Moment" music video here and Convert Video to players like iPod, iPhone, iPad and more for extensive enjoyment.

The music video for Rebecca Black’s new single "My Moment" dually capitalizes on Black's goofy charm (that fans love) and awkwardness (that haters love to hate). On the surface, the video tells us that 1) despite the haters, Rebecca Black is a star and 2) this works, because at the same time Rebecca Black is still just a likable young girl genuinely ecstatic about all this attention.

The dual role Rebecca Black has to play is carefully manufactured. Viewed one way, she appears as the rising pop star that has succeeded despite adversity. In the video she dances with apparent fans rather than in front of them, showing that everybody is equally stoked about Black's success. Even more, it suggests Black's stardom is marked by her normality. She's the everygirl's pop star, integrated with her supporters. It's not startling that "My Moment" has succeeded in manufacturing a Rebecca Black that appeals easily to both fans and haters. What's striking is that Rebecca Black makes the supposed-to-be-subliminal marketing tactics blatantly obvious.

Rebecca Black "My Moment" Lyrics (Make iPhone Ringtone with this)

[Rebecca Black]
Were you the one who said that I would be nothing
Well, I'm about to prove you wrong
I'm not the only one who believes in something
My one wish is about to come true

I'm not stopping for you
No matter what you do
I'll just keep on dreaming
My head up in the clouds when nobody is around to see...

[Chorus]
This is my moment, my moment
It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows this is my moment, my moment

It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows this is my moment, my moment

[Rebecca Black]
You knew it all along, I was afraid of you
I thought I couldn't be myself
You tried to be my friend
But I wouldn't let you
Remember what you said
Don't miss out on your chance
Your life is in your hands
So take it just as far as you can
But trusting in youself, forget everyone else

Believe...

[Chorus]
This is my moment, my moment
It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows this is my moment, my moment

It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows

[Bridge]
Haters, said I'll see you later
Can't talk to you right now
I'm getting my paper
Said I'm doing big things
Things you never dreamed of
I hope you are happy cause I'm 'bout to blow up

[Chorus]
This is my moment, my moment
It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows this is my moment, my moment

It's my time, flying high, lime, mine
Feels like my moment, my moment
I've waited for so long
But now everybody knows this is my moment, my moment

Breaking Bad Season 4 Premiere Bingo: Dark and Dangerous Times

Fans that’ve had to wait a full year since the incredible final shot of season three of Breaking Bad, we feel your pain. Vince Gilligan's show about a meth-dealing chemistry teacher (Bryan Cranston) and his former student/assistant (Aaron Paul) is constantly filled with incredible tension and, after last year’s finale, we all needed time to decompress while eagerly awaiting the next chapter. That wait is almost over.

Season four's premiere episode, "Box Cutter," is an exquisite exercise in tension and the episodes that follow keep this up as every major character seems to have a passed a major breaking point. Desperate to maintain control of his fate, Walt continues to entertain further notions of criminal activity, skipping towards black hat territory with a disturbing amount of pleasure. Jesse is putting on brave face, but having killing Gale has clearly damaged him. Continuing with their plans of purchasing the car wash, Skylar is getting more involved with her husband's illicit activities. And, of course, Hank, still struggling with his injuries, is taking out all of his frustration on Marie, who can only take so much.

In the following there is YouTube Breaking Bad Season 4 Trailer. Download YouTube video to have a preview and Convert Video to other players for enjoying.

Every note of these opening episodes is pitch perfect, building a slow crescendo of what looks to be an impressively strong season. It's especially great to see Skylar become more immersed in the business. Anna Gunn has always been great but the show has occasionally struggled to find a place for her and she really blossoms as she takes control over the business side of Walt's criminal enterprise. Interestingly, the Whites' son, Walter Jr. is missing in the season's first three episodes and it will be curious to see how his parents his manage to keep their secrets from him now that they're both involved.

The long wait proves well worth it as the fourth season of Breaking Bad continues to prove that this is one of the best shows on television.
