Hilarious!

THIS is the statement released by Amy Winehouse's publicist after her embarrassing and unprofessional performance at the Rock in Rio festival in Portugal this past weekend.

"Amy was overwhelmed by the goodwill shown by the audience in Lisbon and even apologised for her below par vocals on stage, after suffering from a sore throat all week.

She was given the option to cancel, but was determined to take her first step back on to the live scene and although her throat was not at 100 per cent, Amy felt it important for fans to see that she is back working at her craft.

She will continue to her comeback at events throughout the summer."

The only craft Amy Winehouse is working on these days is crack and smack!

      i hate her



    2. 2

      yes, i am sure she DID have a sore throat…
      i can't imagine crack smoke is GOOD for the vocal cords, so.
      also, any idiot can see that she was pissy drunk on stage b/c she could not stand up straight and almost fell over twice!
      spin away, but everyone knows the (sad) truth.

      When the hell is someone going to take control of this womens life and get her on the right path? Her parents need to grow a set and just have her put in rehab for 90 days.. She is freakin worth $19 Mil and someone needs to take control. She will be dead by years end at the rate she is going. How sad.. So talented and such a wreck.

      The worst thing is that this is just another episode where lies are used to cover the truth. When are these people going to realise that the more things are swept under the carpet, the longer this will go on. She needs those closest to her to tell her that she is killing herslef, that she looked a hot mess and she needs to fix up!

      wow that is sad b/c that just shows that her "people" will not help her obvious problem but will just keep helping her cover up….poorly….and help her make excuses.

      I will never ever support Amy Winehouse again…her fifteen minutes of fame is up. I have no more sympathies for someone who continues to embarrass herself in public and screws up all the opportunities that are coming away. She is wearing off public sympathies and patience. What she really needs is REHAB!

      Seriously, she needst to fucking die already! I find her so disgusting, she makes me sick to my stomach just looking at her, I don't like smelly people and she is just a waste of a human being. This dirty bitch does not want help and I find it insulting to us all to have to be subjected to pictures and news of her… she needs to die and her ashes should be given to those stupid crack head friends she has and be snorted and done with once and for all!

      41

      Her throat probably hurts from deep-throating whoever was high enough to give her that hickey on whats left of her atrophic neck. It is a really sad thing to see her wasted away like this. And the sad thing is she actually has a lot of talent. I love her music/hate the addiction.
      save amy!!!!!

      Are you all honestly retarded? Did you not hear her voice at the concert? She sounded like she had lost her voice! It's not a fucking spin you asshole, it's the truth! As to why she lost it, well that probably had to do with drugs, but shit, you don't need to make up more b.s. for the girl to deal with than she already has, dickface.

      she looks disgusting. You can see the scabs and marks on her from her addictions. The only way to help her now is to stop buying her stuff, paying to see her, sponsoring her, etc. She needs to hit rock bottom before making a recovery.

      65

      The people at fault here are her management putting her on stage in the first place. It sounds to me like the publicist is trying to put the blame of her bad performance on a sore throat, not on the fact so many people are trying to make money out of exploiting Amy when she is not capable of making any decisions, let alone performing.



    66. 66

      I remember when she was a mess, and Perez used to be best buddies with her. Then she told him to get lost, and now all he does is talk smack about her.

      This is like Perez's personal High School "Burn Book"

      She was determined to take the stage? Since when? I watched the news here in Portugal and she said out loud "I wanted to cancel but they didn't let me." It was horrible. She fell, and she was totally stoned. Even a blind guy could see that.

    69. Portug says – reply to this


      69

      Oh, and "justic". You are half right. Brazil does speak Portuguese. But the show is called "Rock in Rio" because originally the show was in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. But the last 3 editions of Rock in Rio were in Lisbon, Portugal.

      I really like her, and i wish her all the best in her journey of recovery. However, it doesn't seem like she wants to get better and put this addiction past her, which is sad and shameful because she has got to be one of the most talented people ever. Her people, her family, they all need to start sticking her into rehabs against her will, because it's pretty obvious she'll not go voluntarily.

      Re: Smart – I explained this once in a previous comment, but I'm going to explaine it again. Yes, the name of the event is called Rock in Rio because, originally, and for a long time, the show was made in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). But the last 3 editions of the show were in Lisbon, Portugal. It is one of the massives summer music festivals we have here in Portugal (along with Sudoeste, Optimus Alive, Super Bock Super Rock and Paredes de Coura).
