Grammy Award winning singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in her north London apartment on Saturday.

TMZ reports that Scotland Yard told them that there were no signs of foul play in the 27-year-old singer's death and that an autopsy has been scheduled for Sunday.

Winehouse had a long history of struggling with addiction and recently went through an alcohol rehab program in London. Her comeback tour of Europe ended after one concert after she was booed at the kick off gig where she gave a shaky performance, leaving the stage several times and was said to have forgotten some of the lyrics to her songs.

Amy Winehouse's final album, 2006's Back to Black, won five Grammy Awards. The album's producer Mark Ronson issued a statement about the singer's death saying "She was my musical soulmate and like a sister to me. This is one of the saddest days of my life."

The BBC reports that "Winehouse made her last public appearance on Wednesday night when she joined her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield on stage at The Roundhouse in Camden."
