>> many stars, are sad she died so young. they're not totally surprised by winehouse's death with all her struggles with drugs and alcohol. listen to what a few had to say. >> the thing about addiction that i learned from playing a bunch of these guys that are addicts is that it's not wrong or bad to want to get out of the pain of mortality. that's what we're trying to do, and a lot of artists are just too sensitive for the world. >> yeah, i just heard about amy passing away today. i'm a big fan of her music. and i don't know her personally, but it's always tragic when someone goes. it's just sad. i mean, she's very well gifted and very talented. >> those were actors kellen lutz as well as val kilmer. kilmer interestingly played singer jim morrison in the film "the doors." remember that film? morrison like winehouse also died at the age of 27, but the big mystery in all of this right now is that police don't know how the singer died, if it had anything to do with drugs, perhaps alcohol and won't put that piece of the puzzle together until they perform that autopsy which could come as early as tomorrow, don. >> do we know what led police to her body? >> well, you know, the circumstances, don are, still quite bizarre. paramedics found the body today in her london apartment. we've seen the eerie video of paramedics placing the stretcher in ambulance. police got a call to head to a home which matched her address saturday afternoon in response to a woman found deceased. she was pronounced dead on the scene and don, today, an incredible scene outside the singer's home. hundreds of people from fans to police trying to contain that area, many.fans are just shocked over this talented singer's short life. an international star who won a handful of grammys back in 2008 with that unforgettable album "back to black." but her personal demons often overshadowed her talent. she was booed off a stage last month. she did a short stint in rehab after that performance where she checked in and checked right back out of rehab. it really was a story of the latter part of her life, a star with so much promise who had to battle personal demons in the public eye. one thing i want to adhere, something our producer denise kwan found out. interestingly enough, her 2007 worldwide break through album "back to black," it's number one right now on amazon.com as well as itunes. you can imagine all the amazing things that this troubled singer could have done in life if things hadn't ended so tragically. >> thank you, karine. >> just kind of stepped in and thought they were being the good guys by just stepping in and strong arming me into a rehabilitation center, but just didn't really need it. >> that was amy winehouse in 2007 just two months ago, the singer's staff issued a statement saying they were doing everything they could to "return her to her best" after she cut short her tour. celebrity addicts often don't give themselves enough time to recover according to dr. drew from our sister network hln. >> when an opiate addict goes into treatment, it takes months to years to treat. one of the most serious ricks to that recovery for celebrities an particularly musicians is they return to their career, return to the road far too prematurely. it's absolutely predictable what will happen. the fact is, you know, funny thing, people look at these stories and go addiction treatment doesn't work. the crazy thing about addiction is part of the disease is a disturbance of thinking where the addict themselves convinces themself they don't need to listen to or do what they're being told do. if they will do the recovery process on a daily basis, just simply do it, they will be fine just the way a i can do diabeti. i found the ocean and started swimming. >> was he shooting at you in the ocean?

i hope not. >> you know, i hope not, too. but this sadly, it was the last five years of her life she spent more time in the public eye doing things like this than she did in the public eye producing music, which i think is a great tragedy. and i guess that's the toll that addiction takes on people. after this incident with the video actually, she was questioned by police under suspicion of using crack cocaine but actually they ended up not charging her for this because the evidence wasn't strong enough. it's sort of that life on the cusp of completely falling apart for a really long time. >> is this a lesson for young people and famous people? >> you know, i think we've seen a lot of people sort of over the years all kinds of people from years ago, kurt cobane, jimmy hendrix and today, lindsay lohan was reprimanded by the judge this week. i had a progress report for her probation. and i think that these examples, it's hard to know whether it's the fame that needs and enables these people or whether we're just seeing what regular old addiction is but on a global scale. instead of just a handful of family members and loved ones seeing an addict fall apart, it's the entire world seeing them. >> you know what?

>> well, you know, we've had an ongoing partnership in with charity water, the organization that is 100% model where 100% of every cent goes to water projects around the world and she got to hear and listen to the founder, a friend of mine, scott harrison speak at our church awhile ago and like many others was inspired to do what she could do. and for a 9-year-old kid, a huge step of faith would be to say hey, for my birthday, i don't want anything. give to those who are in greater need. not everyone's that mature even at 90, and yet, here she is modeling for us at the age of 9 how to live that kind of life. >> looking at your picture, you can see you're at least 20, 30 years old. did she teach you as someone who i'm sure you consider yourself a worldly person. did she teach you something about life and the human spirit? >> oh, absolutely. i mean, everyone is certainly encouraged and inspired by her story. family member who's knew her best are the ones that certainly learn the most from as they pour out their hearts and the young girl that they got to live with and love and they all say the same thing about her, just an overwhelming heart of compassion and selflessness and she continues to inspire many through this campaign as it continues. >> all right. pastor ryan meeks, we appreciate it. best of luck to you and to the family, please tell them that we are thinking about them, okay?
