Amy Winehouse Drinks Herself Blind

amy-winehouseWE interrupt this transmission of Amy Winehouse’s residency in a St Lucia bar to bring news of Amy Winehouse’s “concerned mother”, who has “has opened up about her daughter’s battle with addiction” on a TV show.

Says Janis Winehouse, for it is she:

“The need to rescue her is enormous. I just want her to be okay and I would do whatever it took to make that right.”

Well, talking about Amy’s condition to tabloid telly should relieve the pressure and make her want to come home.

“Amy is in denial all the time. She probably feels trapped, her body is trapping her.”

Looking at that body, the inner Winehouse is unable to punch her way out of a paper bag. Can she make it?

Mitch Winehouse, the daddy Winehouse, wonders:

“For the last six months there’s been a remarkable recovery!”

Well, not remarkable, more…

“A gradual recovery…”

Not as good..?

“Which is good. With slight backward steps – not drug backward steps, more drink backward steps if you follow my drift. I think that will be the pattern of recovery.”

But why do we need to know this? Why are the Winehouse Parents on the telly talking about their daughter’s ishoos, which play on loop, unable to move on. Winehouse Industries, the one hit wonder hammering over and over and over and over about the drugs, always the drugzzzzz.

Don’t they realise that one thing we like about Amy Winehouse is that in the Petri dish of talentless window lickers, where the likes of Kerry Katona and Katie Price reveal their angst, tattoos and primary sexual characteristics to us every week to make themselves appear interesting, where even cancer becomes a marketing tool to keep the brand alive, Winehouse just gets on with her stuff.

That this stuff is drinking and drugs is no small shame – but why are we so encouraged to stare? If she release a great record, would we care what she gets up to in what passes for her private life..?

Note:  St. Lucia. is the patron saint of the blind.
