Amy Cancels Her Tour!

Filed under: Anglophilia > Amy Winehouse

How do we say this delicately????

This is pathetic!

Amy Winehouse has cancelled her U.K. tour and all promotional appearances through 2008 because she is too upset being without her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, who is in jail.

We love our Wino, but professionalism is not part of her vocabulary.

Amy released the following statement on Tuesday:

"I can't give it my all onstage without my Blake. 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."

Her label adds:

"Amy Winehouse has cancelled all remaining live and promotional appearances for the remainder of the year on the instruction of her doctor. The rigours involved in touring and the intense emotional strain that Amy has been under in recent weeks have taken their toll. In the interests of her health and well-being, Amy has been ordered to take complete rest and deal with her health issues. Her family has requested that the media respect Amy’s privacy at this time. There will be no further comment."

The few shows she has done lately have been savaged by critics and fans.

Refunds will be available for all that bought tix to Wino's remaining dates.

Maybe some time off will do her well. A LOT of time off.

      Why is that not professional. I think it's the best she can do before she ruins her career like Britney. Her husband should be her first priority. For better or worse. A career in show biz is not the end all. Her fans will be there when she cleans up her act and performs wholeheartedly.

      You know what, fuck her. Everyone is so tired of hearing this bullshit from Amy Winehouse. She's a fantastic talent, but talent with no common sense (or a backbone, for that matter) doesn't mean much in the long run. She doesn't appreciate what she has, and therefore, neither should we.

      she is a beautiful woman with a great outlook on life. she is only going to become smarter and all of you will just dwindle in her shadows. amy is the next madonna so you guys should stop being jelous, maybe you should stop doing drugs.

      Should she continue hitting the stage fucked up and further tarnishing her career or just quit while she's ahea…well behind. I say it's time to fold em and take a real break. I mean you've been reporting that every show has been one disaster after the other. It's not too late for her to turn it around. It never is for the truly talented.

      I love her vocal stylings, but I'm not going to pay her any more mind until she gets her sh*t together. Right now she is a chronic. drama. queen. incarnate. You have to be mature enough to separate your love life from your work. Sighhhh.

      39

      This is good for Amy, her husbands arrest and her UK tour coincided with each other and thats never a good thing, whether your a singer, doctor or cleaner if your suffering emotionally then your heart can't be in it.
      The drugs are probably a comfort thing for her at this time and for that reason i think it's good that she goes off radar for a bit, as well the british press are really digging there claws in atm so the lack of spotlight will be good.

      43

      I never understand why women who have so much talent can't control their personal lives and let other people bring them down. Blake is a penny a dozen honey! AMY IS WEAK! You let some man bring you down, you aint shit! FUCK OFF AMY!

      I was scheduled to go to Cardiff tomorrow morning to see her at night. Now I've got the train tickets and no concert to go to. And they phoned me up only the night before. great. I was really looking forward to it :( Was hoping she would get her shit together …

    45. Hayworth Honey says – reply to this


      45

      Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas still has her listed as appearing on December 8. They just haven't gotten the word yet, I guess. We'll be there then, but I didn't bother getting tickets because I knew she'd never be able to appear. Shame, really. Talented and she can't get it together and if she doesn't, she'll lose all credibility with everyone, if she hasn't already.

      I was supposed to be going to see the Whinehouse 2moro night, cant believe shes being so unprofessional, although, to be fair, she seriously needs to sort her head out. To say she can't perform without her husband though, I mean seriously, she is a piss poor excuse for a woman, and does nothing for the advancement of feminism, I thought she was all about empowerment and individuality, not some 50's housewife throwback….

      You know what? suck my left tit amy. Kanye lost his mom (She's DEAD not in jail) and suddenly dead, not hanging on by a thread we kind of saw this coming dead and he still has his ass out on stage every night performing. Please just admit you are a complete addicted to drugs and alcohol mess and you were asked to please stop embarrassing yourself and everyone else and get into rehab so your PR people can salvage what is left of your career.

      Funny you don't see Brit cancelling her tour or embarrassing herself like Amy has.
      Brit may have not had much energy for her Mtv appearance but she got through it unlike Amy. What not hate more on Amy Perez??????

      Why don't you leave Brit alone - homely cow?

    51. janie says – reply to this


      51

      why should she have to be professional? She's an artist, a singer and a songwriter, if she doesn't want to "be professional" she shouldn't have to. Music has gotten so corporatized people have fits when an artist isn't perfect. Give me a break…she's not our toy, personally i'd take a shambolic singer who cancels tours and forget lyrics over some pre-packaged lip synching bullshit any day

    52. Reality Bites says – reply to this


      52

      Re: SpeakEnglish – What? I'd say that MTV appearance could be classified as an embarrassment. What the h*ll were YOU watching? No matter what Winehouse pulls, it won't make Brit's moves look any better. Apples/Oranges. Different continents. Non-motherhood/motherhood.

      53

      To the guy that said she's a product of Ronson. Go back and listen to Frank. She was better before she hooked up with Ronson. Amy's really talented, but like most artists she's tormented. I'm not being an apologist, but don't front like the girl is a manufactured pop artist.

    54. Just Conjecture says – reply to this


      54

      Re: yomama – Agreed, but Kanye also had the good fortune to have his character moulded by Dr. West before she moved on. I kind of think that Ms. Winehouse may not have had as much past good fortune comparatively, from what we've seen so far.

      She's taking this whole "lay down in the street in front of a car" for her man schtick too far. When Courtney lost Kurt AND her bassist in the 90's she went on tour and put on some of the most cathartic rock performances in history. I don't see why Amy can't channel her troubles into great art in the same way. Its a shame, so many people want what this girl has and she just doesn't care. Its not fair.

      so many of you people are so negative, she is a fantastic talent. I'm glad she has cancelled the gigs, I saw her in brighton last night, she was late, granted, she forgot some of the words but she was fantastic. But we left with a feeling of deep sadness, she looked very very ill, she was tiny, she clearly has issues and needs to sort them out unless you people want her dead for the sake of a ticket to cardif.

      have a bit of heart people. she is clearly unwell

      She must have just got a check for the new album and surely she should put that up her nose fast and furious! Rehab? Yeah and I think Perez is hot (straight guy and not liberal). She had her shot, now do us all a favor and die before the year ends so we don't have to read or hear anymore about you. I wish she could read this, but the most I could hope for is someone reading it to her, she would be too wasted to even read the screne!

      I think Wino's carreer has come to an end. She acted too worse for a too long time. Probably they cancelled her tour because the costs were larger than the income. I think her label will fire her. Poor Wino.

      She is a very weak woman. I can't believe she is throwing away EVERYTHING because of a scummy, loser of a "man." I liked her, but really, really loathe WEAK WOMEN.

      Can't believe this- I've been in hospital all week and was soooooo happy I was discharged in time for the Winehouse concert tonight- I travel for 4 hours on a stinking coach only to find out it has been cancelled as soon as I disembark. She is a disgrace to the singing industry with her lack of professionalism, and a disgrace to women to whinge and whine about how not having her thug of a husband makes her life incomplete- Grow Up Amy! You're good, but not that good to get away with fucking off your fans.
      I saw Kanye on saturday and have to say he shows her up.

      C'mon Perez, stop bitchin'! D'you want her dead? It's as simple as that folks - professional or not, whether we like it or not - if the girl doesn't get some help, we're all liable to wind up without her for good!

      Much better this way - a short time away getting better, than a permanent exit!

      Take care Amy; get well & stay well.

Bitch please, get a life. I would have a lot more respect for her if she just said I am an addict and am going to rehab to take care of my problem.

All this fame and fortune was throw onto her and she just does whatever the fuck she wants, it's an insult to her fans that paid money to by her shitty processed cd.

      yeah she's a great singer…but unfortch her personal drama she creates is overshadowing that talent…and she is turning her fans against her by treating them like shit. it's probably best she just take a time out - but she could be handling all this in a more professional manner i agree fully.

      81

      U cant compare Brit to Amy. Brit's selfishness negatively affects her kids and that completely fucked and should be everybody's business but Amy is just fucking herself. And she doesn't need her dumb ass husband for a thing except to have someone to smoke crack with. If she just came out and and said that she was an out of control junkie who needed to be admitted into a medical facility I think her fans wouldn't have been so pissed. But to make up the lame exuse that it's because of your husband? Please, she is in major denial. Normally, I wouldn't think that she should tell anyone of her intentions to seek help but she already put it out there by walking the streets all beat up and high. Then she cancels concerts from one day to the next so she does owe LOTS of people an explanation.
