Live reviews from Europe haven't been very positive for Wino these days: there's been late arrivals, erratic behavior, and walk-offs netting lots of boos and demands for refunds. And when Amy's beehive isn't embarrassingly falling off her head, it doubles as an onstage snort stash (for real). But it's not the drugs that have her showing mercy upon herself and her audiences by canceling the remainder of her concert schedule. It's because she can't go onstage knowing her hubby Blake's in custody. Doctor's orders! Via Reuters:
Blake Fielder-Civil, 25, is being held on remand accused of inflicting grievous bodily harm on a pub landlord in an incident in June last year.
Winehouse, 24, who has struggled with drugs and alcohol, has been criticized by critics for some of her recent performances and a statement on her Web site said her doctor had advised her to cancel all live appearances scheduled this year.
"I can't give it my all onstage without my Blake," her statement said.
"I'm so sorry but I don't want to do the shows half-heartedly; I love singing. My husband is everything to me and without him it's just not the same."
She had been due to perform a number of concerts across Britain and in Ireland, but these have now been called off.
The statement said Winehouse had been under intense emotional strain in recent weeks and she had been ordered to take a complete rest in the interest of her health and well-being.
Don't think she's reading her doctor's prescription properly, but rest is rest. And look, Amy's sorry. Now if only she could focus on getting back those fabulous tits.
