I think this album is gonna do really well here!! The US is having a moment of loving the British chicks like Corinne and Lily...obviously Joss. So Amy will probably have her moment...if she can get it together...but being a mess may help her on talkshows anyway...

IT LOOKS like the Brits have got white up the nose of AMY WINEHOUSE. My exclusive snaps show the sozzled singer leaving an awards party with traces of snow-white powder coating her nostrils. It looks like the ‘party' drug cocaine — if so, I'm afraid Amy has hit a grim low. A passer-by said: "It was late and Amy was totally off her face, but somehow she still had loads of energy. "She was jiggling around and whistling to herself. When she got in the cab she started wiping her nose furiously." Amy had been celebrating a huge night at the Brits, where she picked up a gong for Best Female. Afterwards, she was whisked to the Brits aftershow bash at London's trendy Mocoto. At 1.30am, the party animal was then seen heading to NOEL and LIAM GALLAGHER's private party in The Cuckoo Club. My clubbing spies tell me she STILL had a spring in her step an hour later when she returned to Mocoto. Last night a close friend of Amy's told me: "Everyone knows Amy's one of the biggest caners on the scene at the moment, but if she's getting into Class-As, it's bad news." The 23-year-old soul diva—whose most successful song is called, er, Rehab—has previously admitted to binge drinking and smoking cannabis. She said last year: "I was doing a few drugs but only dabbling. Cocaine isn't really my thing." She also revealed her drug habit played havoc with her eating, leading to dramatic weight loss. "I'd get up, smoke two big spliffs then have a fry-up. It's all I'd eat all day," she said. After her success at the Brits, Amy faces growing pressure to try to better her superb No1 album, Back To Black. But it's feared work demands may awaken her old demons. Despite all this, her dad Mitch reckons cocaine abuse is not a concern. He said: "I don't worry about it because she's told me she doesn't take it." But her concerned friend said: "Amy loves the line in Rehab where she sings, ‘They tried to make me go to rehab, but I said no, no, no.' "Now we just hope she decides to change her tune—for her own sake." www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/showbiz/showbiz2.shtml

Le sigh. I kinda wish she'd go too. :(
Actually, it would only help her if she wants to be helped, and I can't see her wanting to be sober anytime soon.

CONTACTMUSICWINEHOUSE'S DAD DEFENDS DAUGHTER'S DRINKINGAMY WINEHOUSE's father has dismissed speculation the British singer is an alcoholic because she doesn't drink every day. The hard-drinking REHAB star, who took her parents to the Brit Awards ceremony in London on Wednesday (14FEB07), recently revealed that scars on her arm were the result of a drunken fall in New York. But taxi driver dad MITCH WINEHOUSE says, "She had just split up with her boyfriend and had a lot to drink. "She fell over and bumped her head. Her friends phoned me and I went down to her flat. I said, 'You're coming home with me.' "Her previous management company said she should go to rehab but she didn't think she needed to, and I agreed. "I told her I thought she looked OK. She was lovesick. You can't go to rehab for that. "I don't think she is an alcoholic. If you're an alcoholic you drink every day." =================================//=================================== With a father like this, no wonder she's such a walking trainwreck.

Alcoholics most certainly do not have to drink every day to have a problem. What an idiot.

She definitely needs some help before she self-destructs. She's far too talented for that to happen to her.

Is her album being released in America? I love Rehab and You Know I'm No Good, so I'll pick it up if it's released here.

CONTACTMUSICWINEHOUSE VOWS TO KICK ALCOHOL HABITSoul star AMY WINEHOUSE has left her party-loving days behind - she is now clean and sober. The wild-haired singer says she's calmed down and enjoys nothing more than having a quite night out with her friends. She says, "I'm over that stuff now. "I have so little time with my friends these days that when I do get a chance to go out with them I don't want to get so out of my pram that I can't remember it the next day." The REHAB star made the headlines earlier this year (JAN07) when she was sick midway through a UK gig following a heavy night out with party pal KELLY OSBOURNE. =============================//====================================== She's the British Lindsay Lohan, everybody!

Only 1020 times more awesome. I guess that's a good thing. Even if I'll miss the drinking references in her songs.

The Independent's Charlotte Cripps says Amy Winehouse is the new queen of pop. Maybe someday soon, maybe someday soon...

The article is a bit weird though. Just suddenly she's like "OKAY I'M OVER THAT EVEN IF I DID COCAINE THREE DAYS AGO". It's a bit strange. Queen Of Pop is quite an odd title for someone with two albums and one top 10 hit, but hey; we'll take it. I think Back To Black was the best album of 2006 - or second best.

Yes! I wonder how well she's gonna sell here. Frank was a total flop when it was released but I think Back to Black will be more our flavor!!

She will do well here, I'm not worried.
But now that she's in a good, stable relationship -- her boyfriend's initial, A for Alex, is tattooed on her ring finger -- what is she going to write songs about? "Oh, I always find something to fuck myself up with." I LOVE IT.

If Corinne and Lily can make splashes here, Amy most definitely can. I'm not worried at all.

This girl is a trainwreck and her father is a major enabaler, the road she is taking is going to lead her to a very rough time. I just pray she makes it, this girl has a problem and needs help STAT!! Its a shame when such talent is thrown away due to this insideous disease.

Well maybe she should finally check into rehab so the newly-ghetto Joss Stone can give her "big love" next year at the Brits.

I think it started with a break up (hence the lines "It's not just my pride | It's just til these tears have dried" and "I'm gonna lose my baby | So I always keep a bottle near") so now this breakup is definitely not going to help her.
