Quote Of The Day

Filed under: Anglophilia > Quote of the Day > Amy Winehouse

"[Amy Winehouse] is immensely talented. And all I f—ing read is how much she drinks and who she’s married to. Unfortunately, she’s embraced what everybody wants her to be. I’m sure lots of people would love to see me shitfaced and on coke coming out of a club. But, right now, it feels like there’s way too much at stake to fuck it up just because I would get better known for being an idiot than for being a musician.”

- Scottish songstress KT Tunstall tells Entertainment Weekly

She's right.

Amy got too caught up in the hype. She needs to go back to her roots and just SING.

The problem is that everyone loves to see failure in celebrities. I agree it's amusing at times! But with an artist like Amy, who has so much raw talent, it's very sad and heart breaking to me and other fans. I jsut wish that someone would step in and give her guidence to do better. Her Mom hates watchign her like this but does not have the power to change Amy. We all wish her the best and hope that someday she will realize her fans are scared for her life…….

Very well said. I love Amy too but she is soooo stupidly self-destructive and she's doing it only for that "rock and roll" cliche. Get it together girl. What is wrong with you? You can't possibly be this stupid.

she is so right!
femme fatale says – reply to this

It is not that Amy is stupid…she is an addict and will go to any lengths to support her denial and ANYONE who she can use with will be held closer , anyone who calls out her disease will be cast off. It is not intelligence, it is a mental health issue. Would someone deathly allergic to wasps run through a field of wild flowers buck nekkid? NO!! A drunk/addict will overdose, leave the hospital and go and drink with their inlaws…who are also enablers. Amy is very very sick and will die if she keeps it up….we can only pray for her now.

She embraced what everybody wants her to be? Get fucking real. She is a dope addict and the only thing she is embracing is her next high. People don't do drugs, to the point of self destruction, to get attention from the media. They are just addicts, plain and simple, nothing complicated. Sure she is talented but so was Janis Joplin, and she killed herself getting high. Talent is a moot point.

KT Tunstall is a one hit wonder who should keep her trap shut. The nerve of her talking about others wanting media attention.

42

I new this from the start. I love the winehouse but she did buy into the hype. KT is right. I just hope the wino gets it and grows up. She has too much talent to fuck it up like she been doing. She got the chance to show her music and make a good living out of it. its gonna be sad if it all ends up going down the drain.
Crystal says – reply to this

43

No one said she wasn't talented. But you know what? Vices outshine virtues, especially if your vices are DANGEROUS. KT is such a drag queen.
mary says – reply to this

44

Thank god there are still honest celebrities that speak their minds before consulting their publicists, like Jodie Foster and KT. SO refreshing!
suga says – reply to this

45

Don't capmpare her to Janis..at least Janis could sing and had talent. Why does eveyone say Wino is? She is the true Trainwreck. The only way she will be like Janis is he dying of an OD.
Alice says – reply to this

46

She is exactly right. Everyone looked to Amy to be the next rock and roll bad girl and now she is trying to live up to everyones expectations.
amysucks says – reply to this

47

I really don't understand the hype behind Amy Winerhouse. She can't sing, her talent is sloppy and careless and indifferent. Nothing worse than a musician who's indifferent to their art. Besides, it really doesn't take talent to do hard drugs and be effed up all the time and get in fist fights. Is she a monkey? Now KT Tunstall, now there's a talent. It's a shame the mass of people are idiots and don't recognize…

I just want to see her at the Hair Stylists, The Dentist, and at a damn Fashion Show buying some decent clothes. Sheesh! Oh she does needs some rehab too. LOL.

Re: Meg –

LOLZ. You idiot. KT is one of the best selling female artists in the UK at the moment. Better than the talentless whores you yajnks seem to lap up on a daily basis.

KT is the best thing to happen to music in years…thank god she's got herself together enough to keep her music going.

Now if only she'd dump her weird looking drummer and realize guitar players are way better in bed…heh.

KT Tunstall is a real musician! She's smart. Unlike these other spoiled bitches who ruin their lives w/ drugs. Oh and FYI KT is A LOT better than Wino.

This is stupid. Amy is not better known for being an idiot than a musician. Everyone knows that Amy is the truth and one of the most talented female artist in the music business. Fuck the media and fuck the haters. All I know is that I could spend the rest of my life just listening to her voice. I love her to death

Suga,

You must have failed reading comprehension in school. No one was comparing talents lol. In fact, I said talent was a moot point. Moot.

Talent is subjective anyway. That's why people's artistic and music tastes are different. One person doesn't get the final say on who is and isn't more talented than the other.
Lalala says – reply to this

67

GO F' YOURSELF KT TUNSTALL. Just because you're jealous that Amy is talented and you're not. Karma will bite you in the arse. Stop talk shit about other people you don't even know. I LOVE YOU AMY!

Re: BM – Youre so right about KT, but nice try . I lived in the uk for years. A person who lives in a country where number one songs are often sung by cartoon characters and footballers really cant be too judgemental.

Re: Lalala – People need to stop saying they dont know who KT Tunstall is. It says more about them then her. And she isnt talking sh*&- shes just telling the truth.
Mary says – reply to this

73

KT Tunstall is just pissed because no one wants to buy her crappy cd. If we saw her shitfaced and coming out of a club no one would know it was her!
Nicole Christine says – reply to this

What a bitch.
Tbone says – reply to this

75

She is so right! It is so sad and pathetic that someone with actual talent (unlike Shitney) wastes it by abusing alcohol and drugs. I understand that addiction is a "disease", but c'mon, people need to start taking responsibility for their actions. When you are sick you go to the doctor, so go to freaking rehab already!!!
jimmy. says – reply to this

76

she has no talent. she sings like fingernails on a chalkboard. why do we care about this bad singer.
Lola says – reply to this

77

Re: Mary – AND Y IS THAT A BAD THING? Cause she's not an attention whore like Wino cutting herself up and doing drugs?????? At least KT's a talented artist who doesn't need to live up to the "rock and roll" stereotype. She makes great music and thats all she's focused on. That's the point, stupid.
Melissa says – reply to this

I love Amy she will straighten out or who knows. No one even cares about KT Tunstall who the fuck is that. Her voice must not be that great.

Jenn says – reply to this

81

If you don't KNOW who KT Tunstall is, obviously YOU are one of the morons who focus only on the cracked out celebrities who are more in the spot light because of their drug addictions than their talent so you have no right commenting on anyones talent. Maybe if KT was a drug addict, alcoholic you would know who she was…

If you don't know who KT Tunstall is, obviously you are one of the morons who only focus on people who are celebrities because of their public drug addictions and drinking binges than their talent so you have no right commenting on someone's talent. Hmm, maybe if KT was a drug addicted, alcoholic you would know who she was…Then you would probably LOVE her as much as Amy!

Britney Spears Shows Up And Walks Out Of X Factor Auds?

And let the ~~dramz~~ games begin!

Yesterday, The X Factor season two auditions kicked off in Austin, TX with its new judging panel of Britney Spears, Demi Lovato, LA Reid and Simon Cowell!

Everything seemed to be off to a great start...that is, until Mz. Brit Brit was nowhere to be found!!!

Midway through the show, after a hopeful got up and “butchered” Brit’s Hold It Against Me, she supposedly got up and walked out!

Four contestants came and went and Britney was STILL missing!

After the audience was left wondering where she could have gone, reportedly, it was revealed that Britney
