Amy Winehouse Discharged from Hospital
Originally posted 07/29/2008 06:40AM
Amy Winehouse has been discharged from the hospital 12 hours after she was rushed to an emergency room, PEOPLE has confirmed.
"Amy is fine and she is on her way home," says her U.K. rep, Chris Goodman.
Winehouse, 24, was taken by ambulance from her home in north London to the University College Hospital on Monday night after suffering what was believed to be a seizure. Wrapped in a red blanket, she was taken to the vehicle in a wheelchair while her dad Mitch looked on.
The setback was part of her struggle to get clean, the rep insists. (Both the singer and her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil, 26, have a history of drug problems.)
"She was taking a new [medication] as part of her anti-drug treatment program," says Goodman. "And it was an adverse reaction to that new drug. You have to try different things but unfortunately this was not the right one."

Amy Winehouse's Wax Figure Debuts in London
Originally posted 07/23/2008 10:35AM
Amy Winehouse's wacky – and waxy – likeness has now been officially immortalized, along with her tattoos.
The singer's parents, Mitch and Janis, unveiled their daughter's wax figure at Madame Tussauds London on Wednesday, with her father calling its likeness "perfection."
"This is the reward for her musical achievements and her talent," he told reporters.
The waxwork's outfit replicates the one Winehouse wore to 2007's Brit Awards – a bright yellow mini-dress with towering black heels.

Amy Winehouse's Husband to Stay in Jail
Originally posted 07/21/2008 11:45AM
Amy Winehouse's husband Blake Fielder-Civil will stay in jail until Christmas, a London judge ruled Monday.
Fielder-Civil received a 27-month sentence after pleading guilty June 5 to charges of assault and perverting the course of justice. Prisoners serve half their sentences, and Fielder-Civil has already served 254 days (about 9 months).
Blake's lawyer Kate Anderson told reporters, "We are disappointed with the length of the sentence and are giving serious consideration to an appeal."

Amy Winehouse Spins Tunes – No One Hurt
Originally posted 07/11/2008 09:30AM
She didn't sing, but Amy Winehouse still put on a show Thursday night – dancing and painting her nails as she deejayed at a club in London.
Winehouse, 24, arrived at the Monarch bar – waving a shoe at a photographer on her way in – to face DJ Bioux in a battle of the turntables at the DJ event Snakehips At The Monarch.
With the Union Jack flag and a string of blue lights as her backdrop, she sorted through vinyl records of songs mainly from the '50s and '60s. The club night was more of a collaboration than a battle, with DJ Bioux spinning and mixing the oldies songs, including "Wooly Bully," "Love Potion No. 9" and "My Boy Lollipop," for the packed venue.

Amy Winehouse Allegedly Attacks Her Own Bodyguard
Originally posted 07/10/2008 02:00PM
Amy Winehouse's neighbors don't care so much if she goes to rehab – they just want her to move out of her North London flat.
Following new reports that the singer allegedly attacked her bodyguard on Tuesday night, neighbors near the $1.4 million rental property Winehouse has lived in for the last four months tell U.K. media they are tiring of her late-night antics and the paparazzi presence outside the apartment.
"This place used to be a nice, quiet area until Amy moved in," said a neighbor who has videotaped some of the disturbances to the U.K.'s Daily Mirror. "She's nothing but trouble and every night she is partying. If she's not inviting friends around to live it up, she is starting fights."

As the sentencing of her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, nears, Amy Winehouse has been accused of lashing out at a stranger – for the third time in two weeks.
In the most recent altercation, she reportedly punched a fellow drinker at Camden's Dublin Castle pub in what was claimed was an unprovoked attack.
"She was in front of me at the bar and suddenly turned and walloped me three times across the face. It really stung," Wayne Lindsay, 29, told Britain's Daily Mirror. "I couldn't believe it. I hadn't said a word to her or touched her."
