IMO there are planty of examples of artists not getting caught up in booze and drug addiction...Adele,Pink,Gwen Stefani are three that immeciately jump right out at me!, there are also many examples of those who have but have overcame them...the most recent probably being Eminem.
i guess it all comes back to having good family bonds and/or a good support structure of friends.
IMO and from experience i believe that Amy probably had a very addictive personality to begin with, thus the fortune she amassed probably helped fuel her own inclinations and self destructive personality more than if she had a regular 9-5 job.
the biggest letdown of all is that artists management have still not learned from the hindsight of Elvis Presley's addiction in order to do what they can to avoid sudden death!!!
i still think some managers and employees of music artists/actors etc are not giving correct advice!
in order to save their own jobs they continue to be "yes men"
