The Dublin performer found worldwide fame with hit single Nothing Compares 2 U in 1990.
So she died without ever getting an apology from Joe Pesci or the Catholic Church.
Oh, this is poor news indeed.
She had a tough life, and was routinely treated incredibly unkindly for daring to voice her opinions the truth.
RIP
What terrible news. I always loved her voice.
Burning that picture of the pope was legendary, even without her incredible music she’d be remembered as an icon and iconoclast. Bless you.

Here’s the clip to that iconic action.
She didn’t burn it, she ripped it into pieces. She will definitely be remembered as an iconoclast but obviously hasn’t held up to be that impactful, as people apparently don’t even remember what she did.
I was gonna thank you but now I’ll just mock you for thinking how it was destroyed was in any way the important bit
One of the most beautiful and powerful voices of all time. Very sad for her and her family.
Here is my favorite live performance by her:
