Amy Winehouse Arrested - Again

LONDON — Amy Winehouse has been arrested on suspicion of drugs possession, police and her spokesman said Wednesday.

Winehouse's spokesman, Chris Goodman, said the arrest is connected to a video that is alleged to show the troubled singer taking drugs at a party in her home in north London.

Britain's The Sun tabloid in January published still images from a video that it claimed showed Winehouse inhaling fumes from a small pipe. The images were said to have been filmed during a party at her London home.

London's Metropolitan Police said a 24-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drugs possession. Goodman confirmed his client was in police custody.

"Amy Winehouse voluntarily attended a London police station today by appointment. She was arrested in order to be interviewed and is cooperating fully with inquiries," Goodman said in a statement.

"The interview relates to a video handed to police earlier this year," he said.

Winehouse is famous for her hit "Rehab." She has had a turbulent private life. Last month she was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man during a night out. That means no charges were filed, but the incident was placed on her record.

Shortly after The Sun published still photographs of the video, Winehouse entered a London rehabilitation center.

LEAVE BRittney ALONE! seriously, why is everyone so harsh on her. If she wants to do drugs that's her business. You have to admit, drugs are pretty awesome, especially when not taken in moderation and in full view of the public. Sparkle and Fade, Amy.

Why isn't she dead yet? Does her self destruction really belong under the heading of Entertainment?

[VivaZapata]

man. the bullshit around this self-indulgent loon is unbelievable and never ending. give it up!

[BigFootJesus]

Plain and simple, if you want to quit drugs you find a way. Nothing works until the individual decides it is time to quit then pretty much anything you try works. I have seen it happen many times. Unfortunately sometimes people die before they decide it is time to stop.

sentence her to 6 months working in a soup kitchen at a homeless home. she desperately needs a reality check

[ohiomark]

I thought she was dead.

Oh well, any day now.

This Winehouse is headed for a headline "Found Dead From Apparent Overdose". Her story is a tired old one and she needs to grow up and get her life together. Surely, there's someone around her who gives a shit to sit her down and read her the riot act and have her commited to a hospital for as long as it takes. If not, that headline awaits in the wings.

We've seen this movie before. Amy = Janice = dead before 30

[orianna]

you guys are mean... she's got a beautiful voice embellished through a life of hardship which is what the greatest artist can relay to us.... be nicer in your heart and you can hear the music too

[PineyWoods]

Nope. Amy Winehouse is no Janis Joplin. Not nearly the talent or the track record. She's just another trashy bimbo pop star who'll be forgotten long before she's even gone.

[vorpalmusic]

You're right, she's no Janis. She can sing.

[vallon]

Are you serious?

[luckyoldson]

I'll bet she has one hell of a lot better time than most here.

Talent = money = fun.

Get over it.

[BigFootJesus]

She looks so happy all the time. Idiot.

[luckyoldson]

Stills from January?

Give the woman a break.

[ALHayes]

Amy really needs a rehab and I say go, go, go!

[leftLibertarian]

Arrested for being suspicious.

Big Government in Action.

Next up, getting arrested for glancing at Cheeseburgers because they are bad for you.

[AurigaRa]

really!
Surely there are more important issues.
Leave her alone.

2015: Found in trailer park living with 27 cats and clothes stolen from Goodwill.

[tsloan]
