Amy Winehouse Is Addicted To The Other White Powder

Filed under: Anglophilia > Wacky, Tacky & True > Amy Winehouse

cotton-candy.jpg

Looks like Amy Winehouse is addicted to more than just drugs.

Wino's apparently got a mean sweet tooth…er, she's missing her sweet tooth…or wait, that's how she lost her tooth!

Either way, besides spending her money on crack, she's also shelled out a small fortune converting a room in her Camden flat into a candy shop, complete with cotton candy machine and stocked with loads of treats.

A source says, "Amy seems to be constantly stuffing herself with sugary snacks. She loves all of the stuff from her childhood in the Eighties, from Slush Puppies to Bull's Eyes and licorice."

While sugar is a much more harmless white stuff, too much isn't very good for you. Besides containing no nutritional value, it lowers your immune system, and that's not going to help Amy with her chest, lung, and skin infections. And it rots your teeth!

We know you can go to rehab for a sex addiction, but what about a sucrose addiction?

    People with opiate addiction tend to crave the sweet and sugary.

    Weeks old, Perez.



  3. 3

    SHE'S ONE HOT MILF…LOL



  4. 4

    old news perez!



  5. 5

    i heard she likes to put crack in her cotton candy machine and eat it with the crack in it!!!

    lol the things people come up with. but no really, i read somewhere else that she does that. doubt it's true, everyone knows snorting it's better!
    again, jk.

    crack is whack ya'll!



  6. 6

    …she's still alive???



  7. 7

    If indeed Amy is existing on sugary sweets, it's amazing that she stays so terribly thin…you'd think she'd be HUGE. Maybe all the drugs burn it off…



  8. 8

    Using cocaine makes you crave sugar. Ask my stepfather.

    Re: Amsterdamgirl – sad….i am sorry to hear that.

    Re: Juliannes Mom - Milk Me – NICE NAME LOL

    I got off sugar about 10 years ago and feel great. It is a real rare occasion I'll have a donut, candy or piece or pie. Once you go a couple of weeks without it, you will really lose your taste for the stuff.



  12. 12

    "Sugar Highs" are very addictive and difficult to overcome. Amy's probably got a great many "demons" to beat down; just hope she's able to conquer them before they kill her…

    *******WOW PEREZ YOU SERIOUSLY CROSS THE LIMIT. I DONNO IF IT'S THE FAME OR YOU LOSING WEIGHT OR WHATEVER BUT THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME YOU ARE POSTING STUFF THAT ARE WEEKS OLD. DO YOUR JOB!**



  14. 14

    she looks like death



  15. 15

    Why are you telling me this on Halloween, Perez? I just ate 12 snack size snickers in a row.



  16. 16

    Coffee (caffeine), Sugar (in the shape of chocolate, cakes etc), tobacco, grass, alcohol (wine, beer, tequila, rum, etc), prescription drugs, crack and other "illegal drugs", inhalants, people (yes addiction to people, toxic relationships, shopping, etc etc. The addiction of MORE!



  17. 17

    I bet meth will take care of her teeth before the sugar does!



  18. 18

    So pathetic Perez, it was widely reported like a month ago that a "friend" of hers came over and dumped cocaine in her cotton candy machine and was making coke cotton candy, and THAT is what she got addicted too.
    You're an idiot



  19. 19

    Craving sugar…. sounds like she is doing Crystal Meth….. thats the usual "crave" from those kinda folks….



  20. 20

    You know Perez, you make fun of everyone, and perhaps some people deserve it, but you should not kick someone when they are down. This woman is very ILL, sick, do you get it? Addiction is a disease, and at the worst stages more deadly than a diagnosis of cancer. I hate that you constantly make fun of this woman, and others like her who suffer from addiction. YOUR A FAT FUCK, WITH NO TALENT, LEECH OF A PERSONALITY, WHO HAS DONE NOTHING BUT RIDE OTHER JOURNALIST COAT TAILS FOR MEDIA STORIES…CREEP

    FUCKING LAME! Why is this a story SEVERAL WEEKS AFTER your cotton crack candy machine amy winehouse story??
    Lame. Lame, lame, lame, Perez. For shame.



  22. 22

    This is a huge sign pointing to heroin! Not good!!!



  23. 23

    Meth, herion, coke, opiates, come on. That girl is just one smorgasboard of drugs. She's going into the ground before the year is out.



  24. 24

    Heroin impairs your body's ability to metabolize sugar, so junkies often become sugar junkies as well.



  25. 25

    This is not newsworthy. Please.



  26. 26

    either she's going to plump up to a normal weight from this, or she's going to throw it up after.



  27. 27

    Junkies love them some sugar. And one addiction treatment professional once told me that most of the drug addicts he saw started with an addiction to sugar ….



  28. 28

    Perez-I'm a pre-med/nutrition major at a well respected university. In no way have I every liked Amy Winehouse however you are a celebrtiy news blogger and that is what you should stick to doing. Your article about no nutritional value of sugar is incorrect. Let those of us in school stick to that type of information and you should stick to the FACTS and nothing else. You're hypothesis are becoming beyond obnoxious therefore making your website annoying to read. Thanks, celebrity blogger.



  29. 29

    Oh yeah… HALLOWEEN!
    Will this THING be in a new EXORCIST MOVIE?



  30. 30

    when u take drugs, ur body needs more sugar

  31. midi says – reply to this


    31

    refined sugars are a nightmare. frequent use can lead to problems down the road as well. as any opiates addict (or recovering addict) can tell you, sugars are HELL. the binging is enough to drive one crazy. if you know anyone that loves to shovel in the sweets, be concerned!



  32. 32

    Amy, get clean girl, coz if you die..I will fucking kill you.



  33. 33

    She's eating all of that sugar because that's what people crave when they are addicted to meth!



  34. 34

    I could join Amy in Sugar Rehab. I NEED Good & Plenty's, Snickers, Dove Bars, Twizzlers, and Jelly Beans. And I raided my kids Halloween Candy bag and ate lots of the candy I was supposed to be handing out to trick or treaters.



  35. 35

    Just when you thought she couldn't get any worse….she does.

    VV



  36. 36

    hey perez. biologically speaking, sugar is more addicting than heroine



  37. 37

    OMG, PEREZ!!
    You can't give her a break on ANYTHING and it's sooooooooooo effing annoying!
    Gawd! It's candy for christ's sake!

    "While sugar is a much more harmless white stuff, too much isn't very good for you. Besides containing no nutritional value, it lowers your immune system, and that's not going to help Amy with her chest, lung, and skin infections. And it rots your teeth!"

    blah blah blah blah blah blah.

    You turn EVERYTHING into "HATE" you self centered douche!
    Just sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired of ALL of your critisim.

    I still like to come to your site just to get something different than other sites, but it's getting to be less and less ’cause I'm so sick of your EVERYTHING IS BAD UNLESS THEY ARE MY FRIENDS attitude.

    Think about it.



  38. 38

    Re: fultondyke
    I'm with you on that one.. hehe



  39. 39

    Re: Lizard420
    uh-huh, so true.



  40. 40

    It's because of the drugs. My uncle is the same way. Shame.

  41. Jim J says – reply to this


    41

    she's doing meth.

  42. AMS says – reply to this


    42

    Because of her drug use, she likely has an overgrowth of yeast in her small intestine and throughout her body which is making her crave the sugar. Yeast feeds on sugar. People with celiac disease (who don't know they are celiacs) often get caught in the same cycle. She will not get well until she a) quits the drugs, and b) gets rid of the systemic yeast overgrowth in her body. Sad.



  43. 43

    The only reason she loves this cottton candy soo much is because the people her were selling her the drugs(the couple that have just been arrested) have shown her how to lace it with cocaine….

    So she is taking it just as much as she always has…



  44. 44

    Crack addicts love sweets, they crave it.



  45. 45

    Of course they can cure sweet tooth. Ever hear of fat camp Fat Boy? I know you have. Mamacita prolly sent you out there every year. Were you reared at fat camp? Get it? REARED? HAHAHAHAHAhhahahahaha!~



  46. 46

    Drug addicts are always eating candy and sugar and stuff. She needs serious help. That girl is going to be dead if she doesn't get her life on track. Its sad
