Amy Winehouse Arrested, Posted Bail, Not Long For This World
While I could not care less about what 2008 holds for Britney Spears, though I am hoping something between herpes of the face and losing her children permanently for being a selfish, uncaring pig rank high, I do care a fair amount about what happens to Amy Winehouse.
Because Amy, unlike Britney has A.) real talent, B.) a real problem. This is not to say I don’t still harbor some very serious anger towards Amy for throwing her life down the drain for a complete loser like her husband Blake Field-Civildouche (where do these hanger-ons come from?), I have empathy for her. Maybe my shriveled, whithered little heart has grown three sizes larger during this time of peace and giving, or perhaps, I really want to see Amy get her life together and triumph over her Blake/drug addiction.
In any case, my hopes may be dashed on the rocks as Amy faces new hurdles besides her depressive nature and a crippling drug and alcohol addiction.
While police were investigating her husband’s “grievous bodily harm” charges and subsequent witness bribery charges, (Blake and some pals beat up a bartender, and then tried to pay witnesses to change their story) authorities have concluded Amy may be involved. When bribery sums in the amount of $200K were being thrown around, cops must have figured the unemployable Blake couldn’t be the mastermind behind this plot. They started looking into computer and phone records of Amy’s — and low and behold — they found some corroborating evidence implicating the diminutive and troubled songstress.
“As soon as the figure of £200,000 emerged, the finger of suspicion started to point in her direction. How could Blake, who is not wealthy, be expected to come up with that kind of money? Police want to see where Amy’s money goes to. They will account for every penny.”
Amy was arrested in London today, though no charges have been filed. She later posted a $40K bail and is scheduled to appear in court on the matter in March.
Other rumors persist that Blake and Amy have a suicide pact should they be given stiff sentences for their involvement to “pervert” justice.
If found guilty of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice Amy could face life in prison. We can all imagine how well Amy will be taking that news. Amy canceled her entire tour due to stress over not seeing her Blakey - life sentence would be the final nail.
Can this get anymore overly dramatic? Did Shakespeare write some sort of previously unknown comedy/tragedy and Blake and Amy are punking us all? Is there a major gas leak in the entire country of Great Britain and only Amy and Blake have been affected?
This bums me out, because I see no hope for Amy. She has the “look.” That last time I saw that look was in October of 1993 at a Nirvana concert. Kurt Cobain was wearing it, and we all know how that turned out.













I don’t see any sign of things gettign better with Any. She’s still patying untilo 6AM, getting drunk, getting high and she looks more terrible by the day. I take my hat off for her if she ever comes out of this misery.
