There are reports that Amy Winehouse has switched from a drug addiction to a... plastic surgery addiction? This website claims that she has had a breast augmentation to increase her size up to a 32D, and now has had her lips plumped up.
What's worse: a drug addiction or a plastic surgery addiction? I would say drug addiction, since you can't get arrested for having too much plastic surgery.
Natalie Cole blasted The Grammys for giving multiple awards to Amy "Wino" Winehouse:
“I'm going on record as an artist who is able to critique [Amy Winehouse]. I think she has a great talent, but I don't agree with the Grammys giving her those nods. I think it sends the wrong message, that even in the midst of her stupor of drugs she can get nominated for all these awards. It's a slap in the face to musicians and artists who work very hard that they turn around and give it to someone who really obviously doesn't have a grasp of what she has. I've been in this business over 25 years and I sacrificed five years of my own life on drugs and almost lost my life because of it. So I take great offence to almost see someone getting glory out of being in the position that they're in – she needs to get her life together and embrace her craft, she will lose it if she doesn't get it together.”
- Natalie Cole
Wino accepted 5 awards via satellite, and performed a two song set.
With performances by Beyonce and Tina Turner, Rihanna, Kanye's emotional tribute to his "mama," and Amy Winehouse's much-anticipated (via-satellite) performance, (not to mention her shout-out to incarcerated hubby Blake) the Grammys were definitely something to tune into last night.
Although not present in L.A., but rather in her hometown of London, Winehouse almost had a clean sweep, winning five out of the six awards she was nominated for, including record of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.
Kanye dominated the Grammys as well, winning four awards, including best rap album and best rap solo performance. Not only did he pay tribute to his late mother Donda in song, but also spoke to her in his acceptance speech.
Carrie Underwood went home with two awards, best female vocal performance and best country song for "Before He Cheats" and Alicia Keys, who opened the show singing with a virtual Frank Sinatra, took home the prize for best R&B song for "No One" as well as best female R&B vocal performance.
The last award of the night was given to the very surprised jazz artist Herbie Hancock for album of the year, beating out both Winehouse and West.
Other winners included: Best male pop vocal performance: Justin Timberlake Producer of the year, non-classical: Mark Ronson Best Pop performance by a duo or group with vocals: Maroon 5 Best rock album: Foo Fighters Best contemporary R&B album: Ne-Yo Best rap/sung collaboration: "Umbrella," Rihanna featuring Jay-Z Best male country vocal performance: Keith Urban Best country album: "These Days," Vince Gill

I'm not sure how old this animation of Amy "Wino" Winehouse and "Crackhead Pete" Doherty is, but I thought it was too funny. It shows what a great influence her good friend is on her. I hope she stays the h*** away from him, if she wants to get sober.
Hot mess Amy Winehouse has been lobbying the US embassy to approve her visa request so she can attend the upcoming Grammy Awards. Alas, it is not to be. The visa was denied, and Amy's reps issued the following statement:
After the decision came down, her publicist issued the following statement: "Amy has been progressing well since entering a rehabilitation clinic two weeks ago and although disappointed with the decision has accepted the ruling and will be concentrating on her recovery."
Winehouse was asked to perform at the show, and is also up for six different awards, including Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist.
Who'da thought that crack-mess Amy Winehouse would emerge from a couple of weeks in rehab looking, well, back to normal. Gone is the ratty mess of a bleached blonde head of hair, the face full of blemishes, and the anorexic looking body. Amy came out to visit her hubby in jail, and actually looked pretty darn good. She's put on a little weight, cleaned up her skin, brought back her outrageous black beehive, and dabbed on a little makeup.
Wow! Keep up the great work, Amy!
Unfortunately for our Miss Winehouse, the cops are investigating the recently published pictures of what looks to be Amy smoking crack, and she was hauled in for questioning.
I don't even know what to say about this news, and perhaps the best things are left unsaid.
Crackhead Pete (Doherty) and Amy Wino (Winehouse) have teamed up for a duet. Yes, you read that right. A duet. Like actual music. I, of course, assumed they had teamed up to run the world's largest smack cartel, but no, they actually recorded something together.
The 'Rehab' singer and the Babyshambles star recently recorded the track, which sees Amy showcasing her impressive guitar playing skills as well as her singing talents.
Pete's bandmate, guitarist Mick Whitnall, said: "It's a ska-type track. Amy's playing guitar on it and singing as well.
"She plays better than James Brown playing acoustic guitar. She thinks she's s**t but she's not. I've never met a man who plays like that, let alone a girl."
Apparently a line is forming to the left, of stars eager to team up with Winehouse, including Prince and George Michael.
To officially start off our re-immersion into the cesspool of Hollyweird and the celebutards that reside and/or do business there, let's talk about UK singer/rehab hater/trainwreck Amy Winehouse. Winehouse and her enabler/addict/husband Blake Fielder-Civil have been on a romantic break in St. Lucia in the Carribbean, instead of in rehab where the duo belong.
But that's not news. The news is that staff at the posh Jade Hotel entered the room to find the bathroom totally covered in blood and vomit, which apparently belonged to Winehouse.
"It looked like she'd been sick many times. There was blood mixed up in the vomit.
"It was sickening. They were horrified by the state of the room which looked like a bomb had hit it.
"The hotel management offered to send for a doctor but Amy declined. She said she'd be fine. Everyone was concerned because she looked so frail."
Drug addict Amy, 23, was also sick over a sofa as she sat drinking in the only restaurant at the exclusive Jade Mountain resort on St Lucia.
The stench was so bad the hotel was forced to shut it while it was cleaned.
The couple, who married in Florida earlier this year, returned to the restaurant when it re-opened. Amy nibbled on a Caesar salad, while Blake tucked into a steak. They went back to their room but an hour later returned for Amy to demolish a burger and a second salad.
Staff said the pair avoided alcohol the entire day, drinking only fruit punches.
A hotel source added: "They're not like our typical guests. They stand out because they're both covered in cuts and have tattoos all over their bodies. They both behave very strangely."
The couple arrived in St. Lucia following a well publicized collapse and coma on Winehouse's part, a 5 day failed stay in rehab, a postponed tour, and public fight between the two, where both were bruised and bloody and screaming at each other.
Between Amy Winehouse's busted up grill, wacked out Egyptian eyeliner, and monster beehive hairdo, she is one scary looking chick. I think someone is in need of an emergency makeover, or maybe makeUNDER.
