Amy Winehouse shows off a curly-haired new look as she ditches her matted beehive

Amy Winehouse has become world-famous for her musical talent and her infamous beehive.

But as a fresh-faced Amy opened her door to snappers, she revealed a head of lush, glossy curls, showing for the first time in many years just how the singer looks without her trademark matted beehive.

Amy unveiled the glossy, curly locks, as she came to the door of her north London home.

But later a coy Amy stuck on her headscarf as she stepped out with friend 'good Blake'. Amy was seen leaving her north London home with the American photographer Blake Wood.

She then met up with a few friends to go for a drink in a local pub.

Looking more filled out than before, and showing off a pretty rounded stomach, Amy came to her door to in a string vest, under which she wore a nude coloured bra, and bizarrely offered the waiting snappers slices of cheese on toast.



But aside from her healthier-looking appearance, it was her glossy curls which caught the eye, as she looked even more like her mother Janice with her new mumsy look.

She happily posed for pictures and showed photographers her hospital tags when she opened the door of her north London home to ask a photographer to use their mobile.

She then went back into her home with the phone and returned a short while after with the phone in hand and slices of cheese on toast for the photographers.

Amy then chatted to photographers updating photographers on her recent movements revealing she was getting medical treatment for the rash which could be seen on her stomach.

Later on Amy went to a pub in Kentish Town, where she met a few friends including DJ and TV presenter Nick Grimshaw.

After enjoying a few afternoon shots a smiling Amy headed for home.

The singer's appearance in public comes the day after husband Blake Fielder-Civil denied claims he has been dumped by the singer.

Blake, 26, boasted that the pair are still very much in love and that he is expecting a visit from Amy 'at any time now.'

He declared: 'We will be together for the rest of our lives.'

But as he made his comments, Amy's mother Janis has said that she is praying that Blake stays away from her daughter.
Janis, 53, told Closer magazine that Amy was devastated that he didn’t tell her he was getting out of prison before his release into rehab last Wednesday.

She said: 'What sort of husband doesn’t tell his wife that he’s being released? That says it all really, doesn’t it?'

Blake has been staying at a rehab clinic in Woking, Surrey, since he was released from prison last Wednesday.

He was locked up for a year for his part in a vicious assault on a pub landlord.

He allegedly asked Amy to pay the £30,000 fee for his treatment, but she refused.

Amy has not yet visited her freed husband, sparking rumours of a rift between the couple.

She is said to be livid that she did not know her husband was leaving Edmunds Hill jail in East Anglia for a seven-week course to cure his heroin and crack cocaine addiction.

'We'll be together forever,' declares Amy Winehouse's husband from rehab (but she STILL hasn't visited him)

Amy Winehouse's husband has denied claims he has been dumped by the singer.

Blake Fielder-Civil, 26, defiantly boasted that the pair are still very much in love and that he is expecting a visit from Amy 'at any time now.'

He declared: 'We will be together for the rest of our lives.'

Blake has been staying at a rehab clinic in Woking, Surrey, since he was released from prison last Wednesday.

He was locked up for a year for his part in a vicious assault on a pub landlord.

But Amy has not yet visited her freed husband, sparking rumours of a rift between the couple.

Amy is said to be livid that she did not know her husband was leaving Edmunds Hill jail in East Anglia for a seven-week course to cure his heroin and crack cocaine addiction.

But Blake denied their relationship was in any doubt.

He said: 'We are not breaking up. She hasn't dumped me.

'We both love each other very much and will be together forever.'

He also hit back at Amy's father Mitch who said the couple had not spoken to each other in months.

Mitch is said to be spearheading talks with lawyers in an effort to guard the star's £10million fortune from her husband.

Huddling from the rain in a red and white T-shirt and smoking a cigarette at the £4,000- a-week centre, he said: 'We have spoken on the phone and I'm expecting a visit from her at any time now.

'We can't wait to be back together again.'

Blake was released from prison looking pale and with his arms covered in red scars.

He has fought a long battle with drug addiction and was not due to be set free until next month - but was released after agreeing to attend rehab.

And despite only being there for less than a week, Fielder-Civil insists he was now free from his drug shackles.


He said: 'I'm over the worst of it. I won't be going back to that lifestyle.

'After being in prison the only drug I need is the smell of free air - that and my beautiful wife Amy.'

Fielder-Civil was sentenced to 27 months in prison in July after assaulting barman James King, 36, outside a pub in East London and plotting to bribe him with £200,000 not to testify.

He had already spent nine months in custody after his arrest in November last year.

It is believed Fielder-Civil will be assessed at the rehab clinic for several weeks before being released.

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

Amy Winehouse's husband Blake Fielder-Civil was released from Edmunds Hill Prison in Suffolk today.

The Back To Black singer was nowhere to be seen as the 26-year-old left jail for the first time in 12 months.

Instead, she opted to stay at home in London's Camden.

Winehouse, who left hospital on Monday after receiving ongoing treatment for a 'chest infection', looked far from jubilant as she emerged from the residence 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.

It is not yet clear when the couple will be reunited.

Fielder-Civil was in better spirits, grinning from ear to ear as he walked out this morning wearing jeans, a striped red T-shirt and a trilby hat.

He was, however, showing signs of his time behind bars, sporting a chipped front tooth and red scratches down his arms.

But his freedom was short-lived - he is believed to have checked straight into a rehab facility as part of the terms of his release.

Fielder-Civil pleaded guilty to assaulting James King, 36, outside a pub and then plotting to bribe his victim in a £200,000 deal not to testify in court.


It's almost a year to the day since eight plain-clothed officers hand-cuffed Fielder-Civil at the couple's flat in Bow, East London, and led him off to cells as a hysterical Winehouse watched on.

Fielder-Civil's own mother has previously expressed concern about his return to Winehouse's world and his family are desperate for him to stay with them at their Lincolnshire home.

Georgette Civil said in July: 'Giving him and Amy another chance is like putting a gun to Blake's head while playing Russian roulette.'

'If he goes it could be a death sentence for the two of them.'

Amy Winegum: Now troubled singer is 'addicted to sweets'


A source told newpaper London Lite: 'Amy seems to be constantly stuffing herself with sugary snacks. She loves all of the stuff from her childhood in the Eighties, from Slush Puppies to Bull's Eyes and liquorice. It may seem harmless but it is not doing her any good.

'She's suffering from chest and lung infections at the moment and she has been warned that all of the sweets could flare up the problems. She used to walk to the local shops at all hours of the night to pick up her sweet fixes, but now she doesn't have to.

'All of her gadgets have been put in one room so she has all she needs whenever she wants it.'

While friends point out that Winehouse is harking back to her innocent childhood days, there might be a more sinister side to the new obsession.

Heroin addicts often have low blood-sugar levels, leading to cravings for sweet things, and many users eat ice lollies or slushies to cool the burning sensation the killer drug can cause.

Winehouse has battled heroin and crack cocaine addiction for more than a year and is currently trying to work on material for her next album.

Scabby Amy Winehouse looks painfully ill as she's taken to hospital again

Amy Winehouse is in hospital again amid new concerns over her health.

The singer, 25, who was seen heading to hospital looking painfully thin, with yellow teeth and scabby skin, was taken to The London Clinic on Saturday.

Her spokesperson denied initial reports the troubled star was heading back to rehab.

He said: 'Amy is being checked out for a chest infection. She's fine and is expected to return home soon.'

Amy, who has largely remained out of the spotlight in recent month, was joined in the cab by her American friend Blake Wood.

Ms Winehouse, who has been fighting a very public battle against heroin and crack cocaine, has been hospitalised numerous times this year.

In June she was given the stark warning by doctors to 'quit drugs or die' and at the end of that month she was diagnosed with the early stages of the lung disease emphysema.

However, as soon as she left the clinic she was seen smoking a cigarette.

In yet more troubling news, the singer has been warned she faces arrest after failing to earlier she failed to turn up for a meeting with police last week.

The Metropolitan Police want to quiz the singer over claims she hit a female fan, according to reports.

Spooky! Cindy Crawford shows up at Hallowe'en party looking like an ATTRACTIVE Amy Winehouse

Cindy Crawford shed her usually groomed image last night to give her best impersonation of Amy Winehouse at a Hallowe'en party.

Beehive stacked high, make-up caked on her face and arms covered in mock tattoos, the supermodel's resemblance to the troubled singer was uncanny as she arrived at the star-studded event.

She opted for a strappy leopard print dress and huge hoop earrings to complete Amy's trademark trashy look.






But while Amy, 25, has looked increasingly bedraggled in recent years, the statuesque model still managed to look attractive, with her complexion positively glowing beneath the heavy make-up.

Cindy, 42, was just one of a host of celebrities who donned all manner of outfits for Kate Hudson's party in Brentwood, Los Angeles.

Keeping true to the spooky spirit of the occasion, husband and wife Courtney Cox and David Arquette dressed as a witch and wizard.

Another couple - Borat star Sacha Baron Cohen and actress Isla Fisher - also put in an appearance.


But while Isla, 32, looked pretty is a shimmering fairytale-style dress, Sacha threw dignity to the wind and dressed head-to-toe as a cow.

Kate Hudson's step-father Kurt Russell looked dapper as a smartly turned-out sea captain.

And Spider-man actor Tobey Maguire, 33, wore a lumberjack shirt and a baseball cap emblazoned with the legend: 'I love my white trash wife'.

Now it's cocaine candyfloss as troubled Amy Winehouse hits a new low

She cuts a tragic figure with her drug ravaged features but Amy Winehouse's latest exploits have seen her hit a new low.

In a parody of more innocent past-times, the troubled singer has taken to lacing candyfloss with cocaine.

Ms Winehouse has a £700 candyfloss machine into which she reportedly sprinkles wraps of cocaine before whipping up the sweet treat - her 'coke 'n candy special'.

A source close to the singer told told the News of the World the concoction was created by a friend.

The source said: 'It was Mick's idea. The candyfloss machine was Amy's pride and joy and he thought it would be funny to give it a boost.

'He and a some pals sprinkled a wrap of coke into the mixture and Amy started eating it before she realised what they'd done. She now thinks it's a hoot to do the same.'

Ms Winehouse, who has been fighting a very public battle against heroin and crack cocaine, has had a disastrous year.

Her intake of drugs and hard-living has robbed her of her curvaceous looks - and left her looking much older than her 25 years.

In June she was given the stark warning by doctors to 'quit drugs or die' and at the end of that month she was diagnosed with the early stages of the lung disease emphysema.


However, as soon as she left the clinic she was seen smoking a cigarette.

In April this year she was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man on a night out.

She was investigated by officers, although not charged, after a tabloid newspaper published a video that appeared to show her smoking crack cocaine in January.

Her husband Blake Fielder-Civil was also sentenced to 27 months in jail for assault and obstructing justice in July.

Fielder-Civil admitted beating up pub manager James King in a fight in 2006 and then offered him a bribe of £200,000 to keep quiet about it.

Amy Winehouse's Quincy tribute

Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson are reuniting to record a song.

The pair fell out when recording sessions for a proposed James Bond theme went sour - which resulted in Jack White and Alicia Keys providing the opening music to 'Quantum of Solace' - but have since settled their differences and are planning to record a track for a tribute album to Michael Jackson producer Quincy Jones.

A source said: "It's going to be explosive stuff. Amy first met Quincy backstage at the Nelson Mandela show in Hyde Park in June.
"He knew who she was and she was so thrilled to meet him. Her performance clearly impressed him - he was raving about her. This is just the opportunity she needs to show the world she has still got it."

Other stars rumoured to be appearing on the album include Mariah Carey, Usher and John Mayer.

Last week, Amy made a shambolic appearance at London's Berkeley Square Ball - an annual charity event in aid of The Prince's Trust.

She was attending the event to support her 12-year-old goddaughter Dionne, who was performing in a bid to launch her music career.
The troubled singer was supposed to sing backing vocals during Dionne's performance, but only managed to mumble a few words.

Later, she reportedly hit out at a fan who asked for an autograph.

She was heard sobbing: "This isn't a life - it's a mess. Life can't go on. I can't do this any more."

Falling apart: Stick-thin Amy Winehouse more ravaged than ever... as she admits: 'I can't go on like this'

It was a high society ball attended by a host of VIPs in their most glamorous gowns.

But somehow Amy Winehouse didn't get the dress code quite right.

Wearing scruffy animal print shorts, the troubled star looked shockingly skinny and ill as she performed at the End of Summer Ball in London's Berkeley Square last night.

With her gaunt physique, unkempt hair, smudged makeup and scratches on her legs the singer looked more unwell than ever.

The 25-year-old admitted she was on the verge of a breakdown after a night of worryingly shambolic behaviour — even by her standards.

The troubled star embarrassed herself by ruining her 12-year-old goddaughter’s debut singing performance and lashing out at a photographer before collapsing and sobbing: 'Life can’t go on. I can’t do this any more.'

The singer was at the Berkeley Square Ball in Mayfair to provide backing vocals for her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield.

But onlookers were shocked at how out of it Amy was, and the audience at the charity bash cringed as she grabbed and hugged Dionne as she tried to perform.

The pair were joined on stage by a live band and one of Amy’s backing singers for the three-song set.

We’re told: 'It was tragic — she seemed totally wasted. She was jumping all over Dionne as the poor girl tried to sing for the crowd. Amy didn’t really sing a single note — it sounded more like she was grunting down the mic.'

At the end of the performance, Amy’s backing singer told the crowd: 'Isn’t she great? She’s only 12-years-old!'

But Amy crowed: 'She’s better than you — it doesn’t matter how old she is.'

She then roamed from table to table, demanding to meet famous people.

Sugababe Heidi Range was sent to talk to her but couldn’t keep her attention long.

Our spy said: 'Amy was then asked to pose for the event’s official photographer, but flipped and tried to headbutt him. She looked like a woman possessed.'

But backstage things took a turn for the worse. Our spy adds: 'Amy collapsed backstage in tears. She kept saying, ‘Life can’t go on, I can’t do this’.'
It was a sorry return to the public eye for Amy, who has kept a low profile recently.

She arrived at her Camden home at the end of the night with only one shoe and looking horribly dishevelled.








Among the 850 guests at the glittering event were Kate Middleton's younger sister Pippa, Sugababe Heidi Range, model Emma Noble and former Atomic Kitten Liz McLarnon.

Party-goers paid £750 for tickets which included a meal by by celebrity chef Marco Pierre White and cocktails prepared by exclusive restaurant Nobu.

Lady of the manor? Hell-raiser Amy Winehouse plans move to country farmhouse

Amy Winehouse is planning to spend £750,000 on a country retreat in Suffolk, it has been revealed.

The Back to Black singer has found a 150-year-old farmhouse which boasts seven bedrooms, three sitting rooms and a barn house which has been converted into a recording studio.

Sources close to the singer, who currently lives in Camden, say it is the perfect spot for her to recuperate and that she is just days away from exchanging contracts.

'Amy has been looking for something in the area - and this particular place really is the ideal location,' a source tells The Sun.

'It is a really quiet, hidden spot where she would be away from the chaos of her life in London and could concentrate on getting her life back on track.'

The move has been endorsed by Amy's father Mitch Winehouse.

He said: 'I hope she will be very happy there.

'When Blake comes out of prison the two of them are going to need somewhere to live together.'

Amy Winehouse orders 48 bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey at Bestival - but still manages to perform

Amy Winehouse is becoming better known for her non-appearances rather than her performances.

But this weekend she managed to make it the Bestival festival in the Isle of Wight.

She was on stage on Saturday evening, as planned, although organisers had feared she might pull out and were ready with a back-up plan.

It had also been reported the troubled singer, who was headlining the event, ordered 48 bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey.

A Bestival source told the Sun newspaper: 'With Amy’s record this can mean failure to perform or giving a shambolic performance.
amy at bestival


'Whiskey is better than heroin — but not 48 bottles of the stuff.'

Festival organisers were said to be 'shocked' at the 24-year-old's order for two crates of the 40 per cent alcohol.

The source added: 'Everyone is really excited about getting Amy to perform here, and naturally there are now fears she is planning something wild.'

Winehouse is already facing a legal challenge after not turning up to the Rock En Seine festival in Paris last month.

Organisers were furious when the Rehab singer pulled out two hours before she was due to headline the concert after apparently collapsing at home due to ill health.

In June it emerged that she has developed the chronic lung disease emphysema after she collapsed and was rushed to hospital.

About 40,000 festival-goers were expected to attend Bestival at Robin Hill Country Park in Newport, Isle of Wight, this weekend despite the wet weather conditions.

Acts My Bloody Valentine and Underworld were headlining the festival on Friday and today, respectively. Will Young was also billed to perform.

I was the fan hit by Amy Winehouse

I was the fan hit by Amy Winehouse

A man today claimed he was the fan struck by troubled singer Amy Winehouse at the end of her Glastonbury Festival set.

James Gostelow, 25, from London, told reporters he was elbowed in the head by the singer - and handed in mobile phone footage of the incident.

Mr Gostelow claimed she turned on him after someone in the crowd behind him threw a hat at her.

He came forward to clear his name after some reports said Miss Winehouse was groped.

The Grammy-award winner climbed down to the pit in front of the Pyramid stage at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset, on Saturday, to meet fans during set closer Rehab.

The 24-year-old Londoner was seen to throw punches into the crowd at an unseen reveller.

Mr Gostelow told the BBC he was that reveller - but he did not think Winehouse was aiming at him.

He said: "I saw a hat being thrown from behind me and it hit Amy's beehive. She looked down, saw me looking up, and her elbow went for me.

"She caught my forehead, then someone may have shouted something from the back, which is when she went in again."

Mr Gostelow said it was not too sore but "more shock than anything else having got up early to see her then being hit by her".

He said: "The crowd was going absolutely crazy, everyone was pushing and shoving but that's part of it."

Asked if he would consider contacting the police, Mr Gostelow said: "No, I would never want to take anything so far, and at the end of the day it's all part of being at the front to be honest with you, and being crushed by thousands of people here at Glastonbury.

"It's part of the experience I suppose."

Earlier in her set, Winehouse could not resist pining for her imprisoned husband Blake Fielder-Civil, telling the audience "my husband is out of jail in two weeks".

But despite the rambling banter between songs and the scuffle towards the end, Winehouse, wearing a blue sequin dress, seemed to be on top form.

Recently diagnosed with emphysema, she overcame her troubles in front of 80,000 fans and sang an hour-long set, including hits Tears Drying On Their Own, Back To Black and You Know I'm no Good.

A spokesman for Avon and Somerset Police said no complaints of assault were received after Winehouse appeared to lash out at a fan in the audience.

Therefore, there would be no investigation, he said.

Posh goes for the Amy Winehouse look...but fails to pull it off

Posh goes for the Amy Winehouse look...but fails to pull it off
Victoria Beckham fancies herself as something of a style icon but it appears she is taking inspiration from an unlikely source.

The former Spice Girl has copied troubled singing diva Amy Winehouse's exposed bra look in a photoshoot for trendy US designer Marc Jacobs.

But with her silicone enhanced chest bursting forth from the dress' bodice, it made for a particularly vulgar take on the already decidedly common look.
The wannabe style queen struck an awkward pose - a cross between a teapot and a shop window mannequin - dressed in an outfit which looked much like a decorative toilet roll cover in the latest campaign for the trendy US designer.

As the former Spice Girl modelled her most bizarre look yet for the trendy US designer - full lace gown, and squiggly headpiece - complete with a heavy layer of fake tan for her supposed friend.

But with friends like these, she surely doesn't need any enemies.

Victoria appears in the latest of a series of arty adverts for the popular designer's fashion house Marc Jacobs, which was shot by celebrated fashion photographer Juergen Teller.

The former Spice Girl, has made no secret of her desperate desire to be a style icon, but judging by these pictures she's come up considerably short.

Hoisted up like a shop window mannequin Posh was left inches off the floor, with her usually expressionless face typically devoid of expression.

Hopefully the photoshoot she took part in the other day at the Chateau Marmont hotel which go some way to repair the damage.


Today the mother of three, who has launched her own dVb fashion range, was seen shopping at trrendy mall The Grove in LA.

Last night husband David was presented with an award for receiving his 100th cap for representing England.

Amy Winehouse 'to check into rehab in Israel'

Amy Winehouse has agreed to check into rehab in Israel, according the chairman of the county's Anti Drug Authority.

Eliezer Cohen says the singer, 24, will undergo £6,400 of treatment to help her kick her drug habit.

'Amy's people spoke to a reknowned Israeli institution and an Israeli professor who conducts a very special and effective method,' he told the Jewish Chronicle.

‘She has requested to come to him to do this method, since it's a method that is suitable for her.'

But Amy’s rep denies she's heading to rehab.

'She’s going back in the studio and has absolutely no plans to go abroad for treatment,’ he says.

Amy Winehouse's aunt plea

Amy Winehouse's aunt wants the singer locked up to save her from drugs.The family member, who described her self only as Sue, called for her incarceration during a phone call to British radio station 5Live during a debate about drugs, which mentioned the 24-year-old star - who this week was told she would not face any further police action over a video of her smoking what appeared to be crack cocaine.

Sue said: "Sometimes in our heart of hearts - and this is going to sound ever so bad - we wish she would be incarcerated and maybe that would help get her off the drugs."

Amy's aunt also urged people to leave the 'Back to Black' singer alone, saying: "Please let her finish her rehabilitation - let her try to get off the stuff and then we'll have the Amy we all want. We're just trying to carry on our lives, if possible."

Amy's aunt also urged people to leave the 'Back to Black' singer alone, saying:

Sue said she wouldn't normally call in, but was angry her niece was being used as an example to teenagers.

She added to host Phil Williams: "You keep bring up that she's a teenage icon and what sort of example is she setting. She's setting no example. She didn't want to be an example - all she wants to be is a singer and a songwriter.

"There are thousands of families going through the same tragic situation as us all over England and they're allowed to get on it quietly - and this is all we ask for Amy."
Hitting out at the paparazzi who follow Amy, Sue said: "Give it a break - stop printing all those nasty photos."Amy has people knocking on her door at two o'clock, three o'clock in the morning and some of the photos of Amy at her worst is when she's had no sleep and gone downstairs to say, 'Leave me alone, shut up, I want to go to sleep'."

Blake fears Amy 'will die alone'

Blake fears Amy 'will die alone'
Amy Winehouse's banged up husband Blake has told a friend he's worried his wife will die without him by his side.

Fielder-Civil
also revealed to his confidante, Sarah Thomas, he would leave Amy is she didn't stop taking drugs.

He also said he was upset that Amy had missed a string of prison visits to see him in Pentonville where he is on remand.

Fielder-Civil's thoughts were made public after Thomas, handed over the letters he had written to her from prison to a magazine.

In one letter shown to Grazia, Fielder-Civil writes: "How much is my wife trying to do my head in!? Can't help feeling I'm going to see a photo of her snogging some junkie soon! She needs to remember she's married to someone in prison."

His comments come after reports Winehouse has been having an affair with her manager's assistant, Alex Haynes, 22.

Thomas, who Fielder-Civil affectionately calls Baby Bear, also claims the 25-year-old is haunted by the seizure Winehouse had earlier this year when she overdosed on drugs.

"He doesn't want to go back to Amy because she's doing drugs. People might see it as scandalous, but it has to happen for him to be OK," Thomas said.

"If Blake was released tomorrow I think they'd go their separate ways."

Fielder-Civil, who is awaiting trial for allegedly perverting the course of justice and committing grevous bodily harm, is also angered that Amy books visits to see him but fails to show.

"It really upset him when she lets him down. She books visits and doesn't turn up so no one else can go," Thomas added.

Meanwhile, the receptionist from London said the couple once had plans for kids, saying: "They've talked about having kids, and Amy is actually very maternal. She likes taking care of people, and does wifely things like making pillowcases out of tablecloths."

Meanwhile the jailbird is reeling from the news his father may be paralysed after crashing his bike.

Lance Fielder, 67, was airlifted to Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre after being found in a ditch hours after the accident.

Both winehouse and Fielder-Civil said they were "deeply shocked and upset".

Jam session as Amy Winehouse wanders the motorway when traffic grinds to a halt

Where Amy Winehouse goes, chaos follows.The troubled star caused something of a spectacle on the M40 today after she found herself stuck in a traffic jam.

Not content to sit patiently in her car, the Rehab singer roamed the motorway, giving drivers more than they bargained for as she went from car to car in an effort to scrounge a lighter for her cigarette to pass the time.

Jam session as Amy Winehouse wanders the motorway when traffic grinds to a halt

At one point she pulled up her purple vest to bare her midriff as she did a spot of sun baking while leaning on the bonnet of a car.

In a troubling sign, the 24-year-old's arms were covered in fresh scratches and cigarette burns, thought to be the result of self-harming.

Jam session as Amy Winehouse wanders the motorway when traffic grinds to a halt

Earlier this week Amy was arrested for possession of Class A drugs and later released on bail after visiting a London police station by appointment.

Winehouse was questioned over a video which allegedly showed her smoking crack cocaine.

The covert 19-minute clip was discovered on a memory stick which belongs to an alleged drug dealer, Jonny Blagrove and his girlfriend Cara Burton.

The Met confirmed that two people, a 34-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman, had been arrested on suspected drugs offences.

The couple have now been bailed.

Winehouse was originally questioned under caution in February and was due to return for further interview in June.

Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson scrap James Bond tune

Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson have decided to quit collaborating on a new James Bond tune.

The Back To Black star is still struggling to get back to health and things aren't working out on this particular project.

‘We did work on it but we never finished it,’ Mark, 32, tells The Sun. ‘I don’t think it will happen unless by some miracle it gets recorded and someone sings on it. I’m not sure Amy is ready to work on music yet.’

Amy, 24, and Mark started on the track for Quantum Of Solace at a studio in Henley, Oxfordshire, last month.

‘Mark presented a track to Amy, but she had other ideas about the direction it should take,' says her spokesman. 'We’re sure they will continue to make great music together.’

Amy Winehouse not fit to make music - Ya think?

Amy Winehouse not fit to make music - Ya think?
Apparently Amy Winehouse and her producer Mark Ronson were working on the title track for the new James Bond movie Quantum of Solace. For the record, Mark is the mastermind behind Amy's Grammy-winning album "Back to Black." Well, as Amy's looks and ability to not headbutt people faded so did her career. Mark basically pulled the plug on the Bond project and declared Amy unfit to work, according to Sky News:

"We tried to work for a little bit. I'm not sure she's ready to work on music yet," he said.Asked if the Quantum of Solace track will be made he added: "I don't think so unless by some miracle of science it gets recorded and someone sings a vocal on it so probably not. We did work on it but we never finished it so that's about it."
Asked if the pair are due to work on other projects he replied: "No, we tried to work for a little bit. I'm not sure she's ready to work on music yet".

Okay, maybe she can't sing anymore, but I think they should make Amy Winehouse a Bond Girl. Make Daniel Craig really work for that paycheck. I've got the perfect name for her character, too: "Crack Addict #3." Bam! Cinema magic! I should really write movies - that aren't porn. Though I thought "Balls Canyon: Return of Vagina Slim" was nothing less than a work of art.

Thanks to Kasia who's Bond Girl name would be "Sexyonia McAwesome."

Jordan, Posh and Amy are spitting

Jordan, Posh and Amy are spitting

Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty as Olympic athletes, Posh Spice with a pig nose and Gordon Brown as Ebeneezer Scrooge, will be among the stars as a rebranded, revamped Spitting Image returns to TV screens.

The two dissolute pop stars will be shown representing Britain in a 2012 London "drug Olympics", in the new ITV satire.

But unlike Spitting Image from 1984 to 1996, the characters will not be mocked as unflatteringly ugly puppets - but unflatteringly ugly 3D computer animations.
The new £2.5million show, Headcases, reunites some of the key names behind Spitting Image - including head writer Henry Naylor and impressionist Rory Bremner.
