Winehouse, 26, became boisterous and shouted obscenities at the cast of a production of Cinderella, which included Hollywood actor Mickey Rourke.
Staff tried to usher her into a private box, but the singer allegedly kicked and punched front-of-house manager Richard Pound before being dragged out by her own security staff.
And Cinderella thought she had it bad with her nasty stepmother.
Amy Winehouse seeking out some inspiration for songwriting, perhaps. Maybe she has writer’s block and needs to blow it apart by re-introducing more drama into her life?
That drama comes in the form of her ex-husband. It was reported by the British tabs today (The Sun has pap photos, above) that she met Blake for a secret rendezvous. The Daily Mail reported that the crazy couple “were holed up” in a flat “for the next 36 hours.”
This is the same guy who recently bragged to the tabs that he introduced the singer to drugs, etc. And then he topped it off by telling the world that Wino hit the crack pipe onstage, between songs. Yes, what a sweetheart.
But Amy Winehouse still seeks the guy out. Isn’t love grand?
One concerned friend says:
‘The romance is back on and everyone is frantic with worry. They have vowed to one another never to get back into drugs. But together they just went into self destruct mode – and it was their separation that saved them.’
Yep. Let the countdown to destruction begin again. Amy Winehouse may become Wino once again.
Of course, it was her father’s birthday party — so she had to be on good behavior — but, still …
It must’ve been hard.
One guest called her “sober as a lamb.”
Let’s not lose our heads here. [Was that guest drunk?]
Now, if only Wino can stay clean and sober for a few hours on-stage.
Recently Wino spent a huge amount of money (40k U.S. worth) on Christmas decorations for her house this year. Going overboard on Christmas is better than going, say, overboard on drugs. I’m sure everyone will agree on that.
But will Wino’s house be one of those mass-decorated, mass-lit Christmas houses that families drive by to ooh and ahhh over? It would be a less infamous celebrity drive-by on the map.
The above Winehouse White Christmas snow globe was not bought by Amy, nor is it available to the public. It was a Photoshopped joke done by Anorak News. Jokes of Christmas past.
NME.com reports that the follow-up to Amy Winehouse’s Grammy Award-winning album Back To Black is supposed to be released next year. Island Records co-president Darcus Beese was very impressed with some demos for that album that he heard. He told BBC News:
“I’ve heard a couple of song demos that absolutely floored me. Hopefully we’ll have her album next year.”
In other Amy Winehouse news, the debut album by her 13-year-old godddaughter Dionne Bromfield, which is titled Introducing Dionne Bromfield, was released on Monday in the UK on Winehouse’s Lioness Records label.
This past Saturday night, October 10th, Winehouse appeared on BBC-TV’s Strictly Come Dancing with Bromfield to promote Bromfield’s album. Bromfield sang “Mama Said” with Winehouse providing backing vocals. You can watch a video of the performance below:
Bromfield’s got a good voice. Best of luck to her.
The Times of London ran an article last week (October 6th) about the Strictly Come Dancing appearance.
I hope that Winehouse’s work with Bromfield and the upcoming third album of her own will get her focused back on music. She has made the news far too often over the past two years for reasons other than her considerable musical talent. If Winehouse can get the third album completed and it turns out to be a great album, she will have pulled off one hell of a comeback story. This is one writer who is rooting for that to happen. I look forward to hearing the album.
Amy Poorhouse?
Amy Winehouse’s career isn’t the only thing in jeopardy. Almost all that she’s made, down the toilet. According to the Daily Star, the eccentric singer has squandered almost everything she’s made from her music.
Supposedly she spent a lot of it on her six month stay in St. Lucia. I’m sure her lovely ex- husband helped her piss it away, too.
The Web site of UK radio station Absolute Radio is currently featuring several live tracks from The Specials’ set at this past weekend’s V Festival in England. The songs featured are “Too Much Too Young,” “Gangsters,” and “A Message To You, Rudy” as well as a medley of “You’re Wondering Now” and “Ghost Town” for which The Specials were joined by the troubled singer Amy Winehouse. Winehouse’s contribution to the performance is minimal, unfortunately. But at least she’s getting back on stage.
To listen to The Specials at the V Festival, see the Absolute Radio Web site.

Amy Winehouse, about as common to British tabloids as the ink they are printed with, has finally been granted permission to come to America to tour. According to her ex she loved hitting the pipe on-stage. Doubt she will be able to do that in the States.
My bet is that she may not pack her crack pipe, nor smoke it on-stage, but she will go to rehab. And it will be Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew.
Well, you’d think nymphomania is at least better than hardcoring the crack pipe, right? (see our last post)
Looks like another British tabloid, The Daily Star, is getting in on the Amy Winehouse Ex-factor action, too. This time it’s tell-alls from ex-boyfriends of Winehouse.
Lucky gents, huh?
Alex Claire said ‘ol Amy begged him to “tie her up,” among other things.
And then another Alex — Alex Haines — made the comment that Amy was “as addicted to sex as she was to drugs.”
Never kiss and tell, kids. Especially when it’s just one big freak show.
There are those musicians who take a swig of beer or maybe even Jack Daniels between songs. Without a doubt there are those who have a joint on hand. And some simply stick to bottled water.
Amy Winehouse, according to her ex-hub, Blake Fielder-Civil, hit the crack pipe hard:
“Amy would stumble off [stage], with her hands out waiting for the crack pipe. She smoked after every song and without her next hit, she wouldn’t go on. It’s no wonder she couldn’t sing properly. The only thing she cared about was her crack pipe. We carried a crack pipe with us all the time. If we went out to dinner, Amy would get it out and hide under the table so she could have a quick hit. She was quite blatant about it, and no one ever questioned her.”
I guess the crack pipe was like her little Swiss Army knife. It fixed everything.
For a little while anyway.
