Lady Gaga Said Amy Winehouse Inspired Her

Lady Gaga is surely in mourning today for the loss of singer Amy Winehouse. The cause of death has not yet been announced. During her life Winehouse inspired many other musicians. Lady Gaga has spoken out about how she got a sense of freedom and acceptance from watching Amy Winehouse's career progress.

It is tragic that Winehouse is now dead at age 27. Musicians worldwide must be so sad at this news. She was unique and built her music career in her own way. She had an outrageous style, beloved by many people. She had a lot of talent, and now it is gone forever.

Lady Gaga previously said that Winehouse was the master at "opening the door for artists who dared to be different." She added "I will always have a very deep love for Amy Winehouse... She's a different kind of woman. notes the NY Post.

Even superstars like Lady Gaga have their heroes. It seems like Amy Winehouse was someone who inspired Lady Gaga and helped her realize that it was okay to be different. Now when listening to Gaga's hit "Born This Way" it will be a reminder of the struggle many creative people face over building self acceptance.

Amy Winehouse struggle with alcohol and drug addiction for years. Despite her musical talent, she appeared tormented and did not have control of her actions too often. And yet she also inspired others with her talent and her persona. Thus now those who admired her career must come to grips with the unfortunate truth that her inability to control her addictions may have lead to her death.

RIP Amy Winehouse. London is in mourning for your life. It seems that like the American writer Sylvia Plath, who also died in London, the world was too much for you.
