Up All Night With Amy Winehouse

[sputnikgirl]

I just came across this article in Rolling Stone: http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/21471244/up_all_night_with_amy_winehouse/

It's dawn on a hot sunday morning in June, and Amy Winehouse is inside her North London home, staring at her reflection in a dark tinted mirror, looking the tiny little body in front of her up and down, assessing the emaciated tattooed limbs, the jungle of a black beehive weave, the hallucinatory glow of her transparent green eyes. All around her, Winehouse's home is in disastrous disarray: Discarded bags of potato chips, crumpled nuggets of tinfoil, beer bottles, lingerie boxes and scattered old credit cards tell of a long night that hasn't ended in weeks, maybe months.

I thought it was pretty interesting.

Interesting stuff. I've been sort of half-attracted to her for awhile now. She cleans up nice, but most of the time looks like death warmed over. On TMZ today they said she just got out of rehab, and they caught her leaving a liquor store with tons of those tiny little bottles of liquor. Sounds like rehab didn't take. I guess that's what happens when you always say "No, no, no" to it.

Amy Winehouse sucks big time

I honestly don't get the appeal.

I heard they are snorting crack in his bathroom

I wonder if Marion Barry will bring his crack pipe !

 

[Dean Wormer]

She gives skanks a bad name.

Marion who?

She gives skanks a bad name.

she is to ugly to be classified as a skank

 

[calpoon]

You don't know who Marion Barry is?

Oh man. he's the former Mayor of DC. he got busted smoking crack on tape with an undercover officer, and famously remarked of the incident: "The bitch framed me!"

and then they reelected him again after that.:rofl:

 

[bigbadbrody]

never heard of him^

Why doesnt she just die already. We know thats what you want Amy so just get on with it!

Only the good ones die too young. Keith Richards is a drugs addict and still living.

she really does seem to be on a very self destructive road to a dirt nap. i feel sorry for her ,too bad her success can't somehow get her going in a little better direction.

 

[sputnikgirl]

^There are just too many enablers around her, and she's not really committed to getting rid of them. Her husband is one of the biggest, and from the article, it seems their relationship is basically emotional dependancy.

Do they not have conservatorships in the UK? I've wondered why her parents don't pull a Britney, and have a judge grant them the power to decide whether or not she goes to rehab, who can see her, etc.

 

[sagomakolyma]

yey, let's smoke some crack and get lung disease

 

[sputnikgirl]

Working on that "bannedforlife" message under your avatar, I see. Keep being a troll, and see what happens.

 

[efeezy]

It's a shame really, because she has so much talent, but I don't see how someone can be a functioning crack addict in the entertainment industry. She's either going to die from drugs or get her shit together one day and surprise us all. Unfortunately I would bet the former is what will happen.

 

[calpoon]

it's sad to see someone with a drug problem. and that Rolling Stone article seems kind of exploitative.

there's been a lot of people that couldn't handle the effects of fame, and I wonder if that is the case here.
