Amy Winehouse Nixes Divorce Rumors

Posted on 18 Nov 2008 at 10:27am

Though she’s had a very public battle with drug abuse and alcoholism, Amy Winehouse still isn’t ready to clean up her act.  And early this morning she was spotted meandering around town following an all-night bender.

The “You Know I’m No Good” songstress spent Monday night at the Hawley Arms pub in the Camden district of London, finally leaving around 4am.  From there, she headed over to pal Blake Wood’s house before checking out her old home and returning to her current address early this morning.

Blake leaves jail and checks straight into rehab... but Amy is too busy throwing a tantrum to greet him

Blake leaves jail and checks straight into rehab… but Amy is too busy throwing a tantrum to greet him

Posted on 05 Nov 2008 at 7:47pm

Amy Winehouse’s husband was released from jail yesterday after almost a year behind bars for his part in a vicious assault on a pub landlord.

Blake Fielder-Civil left Edmonds Hill prison in Suffolk at 8am looking pale and with his arms covered in red scars.

The 26-year-old, who has fought a long battle with drug addiction, was not due to be released until next month but was freed after agreeing to attend rehab.

Miss Winehouse herself was not there to meet him, leading to rumours of a rift between the pair.

Winehouse, who left hospital on Monday after receiving ongoing treatment for a ‘chest infection’, looked far from jubilant as she emerged from the residence at 4pm this afternoon with make-up smeared across her face.

She appeared to be in an agitated state, lunging at a photographer stationed outside her home shouting: ‘Who’s first? Who wants some?’.

She refused to comment on her husband’s release. Continue

Amy Winehouse Dad to Host Radio Show

Amy Winehouse Dad to Host Radio Show

Posted on 05 Aug 2008 at 4:02pm

Mitch Winehouse’s name is in the paper almost as much as his daughter’s these days. Looks like he wants to give her a run for her money on the airwaves, as well.

Amy Winehouse’s cab-driving, media-friendly father is set to guest host a one-off afternoon call-in radio show on BBC’s Radio London Sept. 1, filling in for the regular DJ who will be on vacation.

“Mitch has been a regular contributor to BBC London, calling into our phone-in shows,” the station’s assistant editor, Justin Kings, told the mothership.

“He always has something worthwhile to say and a good sense of humor. Although Mitch’s life is extraordinary because of Amy, he’s still a London dad and I think our listeners can relate to him in that way.”

The elder Winehouse knows from radio call-in programs—his go-to outlet to clear up rumors surrounding his troubled daughter.

The 57-year-old even disclosed to BBC Radio 1′s Newsbeat that he has grown perhaps too comfortable in the glare of the spotlight.

“I question my own motives sometimes,” he said. “Maybe I like the limelight a bit too much.”

Maybe it runs in the family.
