What happened
On July 20, 2011, Winehouse's last public appearance was at the Roundhouse in Camden, London, where she performed a duet of "Mama Said" with her goddaughter, R&B singer Dionne Bromfield.

Three days before her death, Winehouse's bodyguard Andrew Morris stated he arrived at her residence and found she was somewhat intoxicated, and observed moderate drinking over the following few days, as well as Winehouse "laughing, listening to music and watching TV at 2 a.m."

At 10 a.m. on July 23, Morris found Winehouse unconscious and unsuccessfully tried to rouse her. At 3 p.m., he checked her further, and found she had no pulsed, and called the emergency services. At 3:54 p.m., two ambulances were called to Winehouse's residence in Camden, where she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Winehouse's final recording, "Body and Soul" (A duet with Tony Bennett) was released on September 26, 2011 for his album ''Duets II. ''
