Amy Winehouse's Rampage

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Amy was on the warpath again the other night, assaulting up to three people (that we know of), injuring herself and her reputation, and even inexplicably shouting for all to hear: "I am a legend, get these people out. I want to take drugs."

Her list of crimes, all according to a Yahoo! News summation.

1) She headbutted a total stranger whom she thought was trying to grope her shriveled boobs. Actually, dude, he was trying to hail you a cab. Not everybody is into 42 pound junkies, okay?

2) According to the Sun & the AP: "she allegedly punched a second person in the face before walking herself into a lamppost." Classic Marx Brothers material-- if the Marx Brothers were as dumb as Will Ferrell's last ten movies.

3) She was hanging out with, for much of the evening, Pete Doherty. Enough said. 

4) And that's only the epilogue to the evening. Winehouse was barhopping earlier and slugged a male patron who refused to give up the billiards table:

"I feel so angry," musician Mustapha el Mounmi, who posed for the paper in his swollen-lipped glory, told the tabloid. "She smashed my face hard. I could not hit back—she's a woman."

5) One more PS, according to E!:

While Winehouse eventually made it home early Wednesday morning, she reportedly added one last insult to injury by stiffing her cab driver, refusing to pay any more than half of her fare.

ok so she is a sorry state and its really ugly to here the aggression, who knows what contributed to her behaviour bet no surprises... it only sordid  to hear everyone glowering over it as if its the first time a fragile highlystrung  escaping into drugland artist couldnt handle fame loneliness excessive exposure lets try to have another angle as human beings...would be refreshing instead of all the judgement

You guys are assholes. Leave Amy alone. She is struggling, give her some support,  not your sorry excuse for humor.

Pete Doherty is in JAIL, therefore she was not hanging out with him.

If you people would just close your eyes and listen to her music, you would realize what an amazingly talented artist she is. A gift like hers only happens once in a lifetime.
