Filed under: Anglophilia > Pete Doherty > Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse took to the stage at the MTV Europe Video Music Awards on Thursday night and warbled her way through Back To Black.

On the other hand, Pete Doherty was also part of the show in Munich, and he was pretty damn good!

Oh Amy, why oh why oh why? You sound like some drunk chick doing BAD karaoke. What a dreadful waste of talent.

WHY DO MTV ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN: BRITNEY AND NOW AMY. THEY SHOULDN'T BE LET ON STAGE IF THEY'RE OUT OF IT……

Winehouse is a disaster , you can't even understand the words that are coming out of her mouth, on the other hand Pete is really giving this SOBER THING a try , applaud him for that,really
Sarah says – reply to this

20

you can't even understand what she is saying. That was the worst I have seen her do.
asldkj says – reply to this

21

Stupid. why are drugged out performers allowed to even go on stage? Its bullshit and irresponsible of all the sober folks out there to let it happen. She and all the other celebrity druggie assholes should have all their assets and income frozen until they get their act together…….seems like celebrity status buys you a free pass.
Perez don't even give her a minute of exposure on ur website.

wow, amy needs to get back on her feet. her voice was almost annoying and it's too sad since she's incredibly talented. as as pete: I was not expecting that. I really enjoyed the whole performance. he's hot? I can't beleive it!!

31

Oh my now the comedians can't even make a fool of her because singing in gibberish she did a bloody good job already.
Actually it's sad but I really had to laugh out loud a couple of times because of the gibberish.
GoBrItNeY says – reply to this

32

wino sucked big time, such a loser
the only thank i could understand was
'thank you' at the end ha-ha
doperty did a good job, you go girl
have a nice snort of coke, you deserved it !
Holly says – reply to this

33

Damn it, I love Amy! I hate that she sucks so much lately, the performances are make her fans embarrassed, I wish she'd see that! And little Petey looks weird as hell sober…
kristen says – reply to this

he was amazing- i shed a tear
LEigh says – reply to this

38

she reminds me of the sister in Dirty Dancing when shes singin that hula song! ha
Natalie says – reply to this

39

Um how is it possible that Doperty did a good job? Congrats on your sobriety. Amy, you fucking suck. I used to love your music, but now, not so much. You're not even coherent. Seek help, eat a sandwich, wash your hair, detox.
kristi says – reply to this

40

I am not longer a fan of Amy. Her performance was awful, she was completely stoned. It's so sad she couldn't wait for the end of the show to take drugs.
And Pete's performance was great, congrats!
kris says – reply to this

41

amy's performance was WAY more disastrous than Britney's. of course it's more popular to make fun of Britney, but seriously, Amy has so much talent and it's a disgrace what she did on that stage. her poor band. good for pete. it's good to see him doing well.
Lovin'It says – reply to this

42

Amy Winehouse is a total cunt! She is so messed up and sucks ass…that was by far the WORST performance I have ever heard in my life and a total insult to anyone who calls them self her fan. No wonder Perez likes her. One talentless ass clown for another!
hmm says – reply to this

43

Why no "frequent and habitual" comments about Wino, hmm?
Dumbfucks says – reply to this

44

What the hell are you talking about?? I thought Amy sounded good and I'm just happy she's abcking touring!! Dumbfuck losers!
callmekat-kittykat says – reply to this

45

how has no one mentioned the fact that she interrupted herself singing to poke at her nose, presumably because the insides are falling out after whatever she snorted before this performance
Amy Whynot says – reply to this

46

At least she isn't lipsyncing, what has this borad done with their life - ever have an off day. Or do you just like mocking people who take a chance.
Harlow says – reply to this

47

A drunken Amy Winehouse performance is STILL superior compared to all the lip-syncing, tone-deaf, pop queens that take the stage these days…
Amanda says – reply to this

48

I just can't respect that.
Jasmine says – reply to this

49

I saw it last night - she was out of it!! So sad. Her dancers are fab though.
maggs99 says – reply to this

50

can amy pronounce words anymore?
not first bitches says – reply to this

51

WOW!!! I could actually understand 3 whole words out of that whole awful performance. " I ", "go" and "back". LOL… I can see the SNL parodies now…..
jbnwekjb says – reply to this

52

10 BUCKS SAYS AMY WINEHOUSE's DEAD IN A YEAR……..HELL, I'LL GIVE HER THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND SAY 3. GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER CHICA, BRITNEY TOO. I SEE ANOTHER ANNA-NICOLE COMIN WITH THESE 2.

:(
elsa says – reply to this

53

i didnt understand a fucking word she said.
57412 says – reply to this

54

somehow despite not being able to understand a word she said, her voice sounded amazing.
I love coke habits! wheeee!
larry says – reply to this

55

Looking at her eyes, I'm not too sure she was stoned. Her movements were tentative and jerky, but not stumbling-drunk-like. I hope she was just trying to be what and Dylan and others have tried to be, mumbling the lyrics for an I-don't-give-a-crap affect. Maybe, just maybe, she was trying to be artistically nonchalant for some cool vibe that didn't make it. It's not like nobody has done it before.
J says – reply to this

56

it was laughable it was so bad. and the nose wiping was just great too.
Andrea says – reply to this

57

Re: hmm – When are you stupid Britney fans are going to understand that Perez is more "verbally aggressive" with your idol-the "frequent and habitual drug user" because she has 2 KIDS that suffer from her actions…Winehouse is only hurting herself,HUGE DIFFERENCE!
toonkinstein says – reply to this

58

she need a running transcript of her sone so we could follow along….follow the bouncing ball.".thaaaaay ssssssaaaaaa r ahhh a mooooooo ne saaaaaaa…"
larry says – reply to this

59

By the way, she's put on weight. At least that's a positive.
krista says – reply to this

60

wow. amy winehouse is such a fantastic talent, it's so sad she is obviously beyond drugged up in this performance. i'm sad for her, what a waste of a good thing.
SARA says – reply to this

61

I notice you aren't making fun of her? If britney makes 1 wrong move you are all over it, but nothing about this? Wow…….
cathe says – reply to this

62

wtf?
Lu says – reply to this

63

No offense to the people who are suffering from it but: Does Wino have Parkinson???
hmmmm says – reply to this

64

Wow! I think Pete looked kinda cute! Kinda like a young Paul McCartney. Weird, I've never thought he was anything but grody before. Hopefully he'll get his act together.

Poor Amy..she just makes me sad. True talent wasted….
matilda says – reply to this

Pete Forever!
Douche says – reply to this

75

Amy Winehouse is a douche! F her! How dare she go on stage like that! What the hell was she even trying to sing? Does anyone know the lyrics? It sounds like she was singing with marbles in her mouth! Perez, remember when you wrote that open letter to Britney about her terrible performance and said F-her! Well, what the hell??? What kind of "performance" was that from Amy Winehouse? It's a disgrace! She's horrible. She didn't even know the words to the song and just warbled her way through. What a piece of work.
Scott says – reply to this

76

So let me get this straight. Joss Stone gets trashed here because Perez claims she'll fuck for tracks? Will Amy do smack and blow for tracks?
Courtney says – reply to this

77

Amy Winehouse is a fucking skank. It needs to be said. I am sick of people pretending she is so talented and pretty. Let's get real. And Mr. Babyshambles, fugly also!
sarahbears says – reply to this

78

damn. i pretty much love her more than any current artists…but please, take the fucking alcohol and drugs away from her, even if its just for before the performances, for the love of god.
lumi says – reply to this

79

Oh Amy… She looks like a mess, couldn't even finish watching that shit. Her music is fabulous but that video just makes me feel sorry for the band - and the audience….
Douche says – reply to this

80

Why the hell do people even clap at the end when the performance sucked????!!!!!!

Does she think we are that stupid that we think she is so great?

What the hell.

That was awful!!!

You couldn't understand a word she was saying.

SHE SUCKED!!!!!!

BOYCOTT HER.

If you don't boycott her, then YOU are an enabler.

Think about it.

IF YOU BUY HER MUSIC, YOU ARE PAYING FOR HER TO BUY MORE DRUGS.

Simple as that.
roro says – reply to this

81

Pete Dohertx just cannot sing and he cannot play the guitar either. He should think of another career… But which one? Amy sings better, that's obvious
Michelle says – reply to this

82

You know, her voice is nicer than I thought, to begin with. Now, if only we could get rid of the alcohol and drugs causing the SUBTLE blurring of her words. Ha!
cakesmack says – reply to this

83

That is the saddest display ever. I am disgusted that they allow her to perform at all. I am disgusted that she had the balls to get on stage that whacked out. She can't even pronounce any of the words in the song. Sick.
Douche says – reply to this

84

Perez is deleting our comments. Everytime I refresh the page, the number of comments are going down. First I see a comment, next it is not there.

Why are we being censored?
Miss B says – reply to this

85

I fucking love Amy but she needs to clean up her act. That whole performance made me cringe, so so sad to see.

On the Upside Pete D is doing well, looking far more like the Pete of Libs days
Slutty McSlut~Slut says – reply to this

86

Amy continues to let me down….

Pete did a get job….I heart babyshambles!!!
Douche says – reply to this

87

OK, I, Douche apolozige to Perez. The comments are back now.
Dewellah says – reply to this

88

She looked ready to give up 1/2 way thru the song and then realized - "Oh, this isn't rehearsal". Still love her music, though.
Douche says – reply to this

89

OK, I, Douche, apologize for typing so fast and making typos.

I apologize for typing apologize incorrectly.

Love,
Douche

george jetson says – reply to this

91

they both sucked perez. now go kill yourself before my friend in LA gets AIDS.
Nix says – reply to this

92

Was she even singing in English???
Pete was pretty good, he doesn't even look dirty.
GETITSTRAIGHT says – reply to this

93

PEREZ, DON'T YOU GET IT? The reason Amy is doing this now is because the last time you put her on your site, performing sober, she got the WORST comments… she already doesn't think she is very good, low, low self esteem here, we are talking bad. SO, now she's going to just be drunk or acting like it when she performs, so at least there is an excuse for how not talented she thinks she is. She reads everything folks say about her on here and she just can't take it…. look deeper………………….
Liz says – reply to this

94

Someone please commit the wino!! she needs help!
krissey says – reply to this

95

what an amazing performance by the Babyshambles.. They are one of the best bands in the world today.. Pete is a fricking genious. It's so good to see him sober… Keep it up!!
mega says – reply to this

96

LOVE that Babyshambles song - Pete IS pretty damn good. And Amy… well, she'd better get clean or she'll have no career left. Not to mention she looks ill. If Pete can clean it up - anyone can!!!!
claudia says – reply to this

97

mtv european music award - not video!!!!!!
aimee says – reply to this

98

When are they gonna learn to stop booking her for shows and commitments until she can get through a show or concert without sounding like she just did a few lines of blow?

Has she even heard of rehearsal? I doubt it. Less than stellar is a huge understatement, Perez.
shitbird says – reply to this

99

What the hell did she say??????????????????????????????????????
{INSERT PUZZLED LOOK}

Angelina Jolie Announces That Her Next Movie Will Be...

Maleficent!

At least, we think it is! Almost positive, actually!

Angelina Jolie was at the Berlin International Film Festival today, where she is screening her directorial debut, In The Land Of Blood and Honey out of competition, when she announced that the long-rumored project was next up for her - even though she didn't specifically call it by name!

She explains:

"I haven't acted in two years, and I haven't done anything else since this . The next thing I am looking at is a Disney movie. The best thing to find that balance is to do something that is just for children. You know, you find different ways to make things matter. When, for example, you do fun action movies, they are empowering for my daughters."

And since we've gotten word that the Luc Besson movie she had been eyeing seems to have stalled, and Maleficent recently got Robert Stromberg as a director, we think it's safe to say that the Linda Woolverton-written adaptation of the classic fairy tale is definitely where we'll see her next!

So, so cool!

Gurl is going to ROCK this! Don't U think?
