Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of possessing drugs. Police became suspicious after a video of her smoking crack cocaine appeared. She is released now. She has fought a very public battle against alcohol, drugs, eating disorders, and crack. The video also showed her snorting ecstasy and cocaine.
I don’t think it is very fair for her to get arrested over a video. If this wasn’t a celebrity, police most likely wouldn’t arrest them. I also think that since she is in the public eye so much it makes it a lot harder for her to overcome her addiction.

I think it's fair for her to get arrested because we all know this isn't the first time she's smoked crack or marijuana.  She's had a constant battle with drugs and her getting arrested could do her some good like a wake-up call.  Celebrities shouldn't be able to get away with that behavior, no more than any regular person should.

Wasn't there a video of her snorting drugs that she hid in her hair while she was singing on stage? I think she needs to be in jail and she needs something to wake her up and make her realize how big of a junkie she is.

I actually saw this video on this site. But I do agree she needs something really really big to happen to her to show her that she's hit rock bottom and needs to quit.

In the news today, there was a story about how a couple who openly admitted to selling her drugs, could be going to jail.  They appeared in jail today, on charges relating to a video they covertly filmed which appeared to show Amy smoking a crack pipe.  The footage was given to a newspaper, and then to authorities.  But she wasn't arrested, because of lack of evidence.  But the couple could be going to jail on serious charges, and apparently they are Amy's main suppliers.  She could be losing her connection, and making it harder to get drugs, and also more risky.  Maybe this will be what ultimately gets her off of drugs.

She probably has other suppliers as well. I'm sure she doesn't depend only on them. I think she needs a whole community project to get her off drugs. She seems like a hopeless case.

Her husband, Blake was released last week from prison and is staying at a rehab facility.  Amy has still not seen him and seems to have had a change of heart about him and their marriage.  She refused to pay his 30,000 pound rehab fee, explaining that he needs to be responsible for getting his life straightened out.  I think if he's sober and making good decisions, then she would be more attracted to him, and see how messed up she is herself.  She's been meeting with her lawyers and becoming proactive in protecting her money so that Blake wouldn't get anything if they get divorced. A couple months ago, it seemed like she was still completely in love with him and missing him, and now that he's out, she's not sure if he's 'the one.'

Amy seems to enjoy being riled up with drugs and on drugs most of the time. I think she's hit rock bottom a long time ago but she still doesn't seem to get the point. It doesn't seem like she wants to quit. Sometimes you do things that are bad for you and you know you should stay away from them yet you dont want to because you like it. I think that might be her case. I think there also might be a chance that she doesn't want her husband now because hes not going to be high on drugs like her anymore. He's going to be sober and probably get her to quit aswell, and she may not want to be sober at all. I could be very wrong but that's my theory.

 I agree with the above comment.  It's who Amy is now, part of her personality, her music, everything.  And her fans seem to like it as well.  She drinks orange juice on stage, which is a hallu cinogen booster.  She's done coke on stage and everyone cheered her on.  It's just the whole rocker world and lifestyle that goes along with it.  I don't think she's ready to quit any time soon.  But her husband may feel different, and his family really wants him to stay clean.  In couples where one person does drugs and the other doesn't, it just never works out.

If thats the case, that she doesn't want to be with her husband because he wants to be sober and she doesn't I think thats her first step to maybe quitting soon. She loved him, we could all tell, you can't really get over that. Sooner or later, sober or not, she's going to realise that she loves him and want to be with him. By then it might be too late but it also might get to her stop! I hope she does, she's going to die from all these drugs she's ingesting into her body. they're all toxins. I think she's the biggest druggie I could think of.

I was reading up on this I thought it was pretty interesting. I guess she doesn't want to be with her husband anymore because all he does is yell at her. When they talk and hes in jail he just yells at her and curses at her and his family blames her and criticize her. I guess she's been wanting to end it for a while. She wants him to stay in jail. She has been dating her managers assistant. He's 24 years old and he's a good boy, doesn't smoke or do drugs and not a heavy drinker. And I guess Amy has really fallen for him. So I guess the accusation that she doesn't want her husband since he's sober now is out of the question. Maybe this guy will be her miracle and sober her up. Lets just hope she's not his downfall and brings him down along with her!

Her husband must be going through a lot, seeing how his wife is out partying and dating the whole time he's in prison.  But if he really loves her, then he'd want the best for her.  And if she doesn't love him anymore, then he can't really do anything about it.

Amy's husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, has told British newspapers that he made Amy a junkie.  And that he plans to leave the troubled pop star to save her life.
  "I dragged Amy into (drugs), and without me there is no doubt that she would never have gone down that road,'' Blake Fielder-Civil told Britain's News of the World.

Amy has still not visited her husband since he left prison, but she was hospitalized again on Nov. 20 for what her representative says was a ``reaction to medication.'' It's unclear whether she has been released.

Blake says his Grammy Award-winning wife, 25, took up heroin, cocaine and self-mutilation under his influence.


Our thoughts create our reality.

I never knew her husband got her into this whole mess. I thought they were just both like that from the start. That kind of changes a few things, usually when a bf, or husband in this case, is a bad influence on the other the relationship never fails to fall apart. Its only a matter of time until she realised that hes the reason she is the way she is now. I think its selfish when a spouse does do that, I was in a relationship once where I was pressured to do things I normally wouldn't, and i changed into a person I never thought I would turn into. I think its a good decision that she is not visiting him and that she is staying away from him. It is also great that he is leaving her alone as well and letting her save her life. If they are meant to be and they really do love each other then they will find away to worth things out and live a sober life together, a healthy life, the way it is supposed to be!


I think her new boo is a good influence though he may actually get her to finally realise what she has become and change before it is too late.She's been having to go to the hospital at least once a month everymonth for how long now? Its really not good!

Her husband Blake was released recently and is getting help in rehab. But just two days ago, he relapsed and is going back to prison, possibly until 2010.  Amy was in the hospital at the time when he went and told her.  He's really not right.. and to screw things up again, that's so messed up.

I guess they slept together one last time before he went off to prison. But he went there to ask for her forgiveness. However she is still furious that he was doing drugs again (a bit hypocritical I think) and she is proceeding with the divorce. She said she wants to get her life on track. I hope she really does get her life back on track that would be the best thing she could do for herself. I wonder what will happen with her new boyfriend tho... :-/

Personally I think once a relationship messes up that much there's nothing anyone can do to fix it. Sure the past is past, but it haunts your future no matter what. Them doing drugs together, him bringing her down, or the other way around. Their fights, him being in jail and her wanting a divorce all that. Through experience I've realized that once one messes up their relationship there's no way to fix it. Maybe time apart for a while could benefit but even then everyone remembers the past.
