Amy Winehouse’s life sure has fallen apart. They say you have to let a person reach rock bottom – I’m not sure how much farther this woman can fall. The only thing in her life that isn’t completely ruined is her singing career – and most would say that’s on the way out too. The bosses at her record label have supposedly given her an ultimatum: clean up your act or it’s done. Yet Amy’s life just seems to be getting worse and worse, and her behavior more and more dangerous.
Two nights ago Amy went on a rampage at a bar – physically assaulting two men, doing drugs in public, trashed the bar, and smashed her head against a lamppost. As a result, Amy was interviewed by the police today, where she appeared to suffer a bit of a breakdown.
Amy Winehouse broke down in tears this afternoon as she prepared to be questioned by police over claims she attacked a man after a night out.
The troubled singer, 24, arrived at a London police station this afternoon for questioning. She is expected to be arrested after a 38-year-old man alleged she assaulted him. She was clearly distressed as she was driven away from her home in Camden, North London.
Police were expected to question Winehouse about an incident in Chalk Farm Road in the early hours of Wednesday. She was trying to get the taxi when a 38-year-old man approached… She is said to have believed he was trying to molest her and butted him in the face. If convicted of assault she could face up to six months in jail and a £2,000 fine.

And in further bad news for Amy Winehouse, it sure seems like jailbird husband Blake Fielder-Civil has moved on from Amy and found a new lady to romance. The Daily Mail reports that he was mouthing “I love you” to a blonde woman in court, and she kept mouthing it back. Sounds just like him and Amy, back in those halcyon days of four months ago.
Meanwhile, Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil appeared at Snaresbrook Crown Court, in East London, charged with assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. Amy failed to turn up for the hearing – not that Fielder-Civil appeared to notice. He was warned for repeatedly smiling and trying to communicate with a beautiful blonde sitting in the public gallery.
He mouthed, “You all right, babe?” and “I love you” to Sophie Schandorff. Fielder-Civil even made a beckoning gesture suggesting she visit him in prison. Schandorff, 21, also gestured and mouthed back, “I love you, I love you”, but was warned to stop by the court clerk. She later told reporters that Fielder-Civil was a close friend and that the pair had known one another for sometime.

Something tells me it’s no matter to Amy – the Daily Mail also mentions that Amy spent most of last night with rocker Kristian Marr. Apparently they were holding hands and grabbing each other’s asses the whole night. Somehow Blake’s “I love you” to a woman who’s not his wife seems much more refined when compared to ass grabbing. In a way it’s a shame – those two sure did seem like one messed up, perfectly paired match. And it seems that the hope that Amy would get her life together if she could just get rid of Blake was for naught. Who knows, maybe the two will reunite in jail.
Update: Hollywood TV is reporting that Amy’s rep has denied that she’s been arrested. She’s insisting Amy is “voluntarily” helping police. That sounds about right – but that doesn’t mean she won’t be arrested.

WENN notes: Amy Winehouse goes on another late night bender in Camden visiting the same pub, ‘The Good Mixer’ as the night before. She stocked up on disposable lighters at her local newsagent and was guided home by friends pulling bizarre facial expressions, and sniggered uncontrollably. Images thanks to WENN.
Thank God her and Blake are finished. He probably dumped her because she wouldn’t support his habit in gaol. This would explain her out of control-ness lately. The last time they broke up she got a masterpiece album out of it – lets hope it happens again.
Take a look of the picture of her in the Daily Mail today. It even gave me a fright and that’s saying something
Poor Amy
Damn. Her dad needs to go “Jamie Spears” on her
Go “Jamie Spears” – first pimp your daughter to the music industry, rob her of a normal childhood and later pretend it was lack of parental supervision that caused her breakdown?
I saw an interview with Amy’s dad where he prided himself on telling her that she didn’t need rehab.
Just like the lyrics “…and if my daddy thinks I’m fine”.
Very supportive.
Yick! She has to be one of the scariest people I’ve ever seen.
He was trying to molest her? Yeah, right. And she butted him in the face? Who in the hell butts someone in the face?
Aaah, no! Oh, no. This is terrible. I had really, really hoped she’d get it together. God, what a mess.
The Good Mixer is kinda rough – or at least it was when I used to live down there a few years ago – can’t believe it has changed much. It is being reported on BBC Radio 4 (quite reputable!)this morning that she was arrested, and that the man she butted says he was trying to get her a taxi.
Mea Culpa – I just logged on to say that Radio 4 have now changed from the ‘being arrested’ story at 8 am to the ‘going voluntarily to help the police’ story at mid-day. PR anyone???! 8)
someone on drugs butts people in the face.
