Did anyone see this performance? Wow. She was sooo cracked out. At one point she starts rubbing her nose and I was just waiting for it to start bleeding. Home girl needs to go back to rehab and then take some singing lessons.
Oh my, so is the song normally like that? Cuz I really couldn't understand a single word. wow.
The award well I could see how she was just so overwhelmed with emotion that she could not speak LOL just kidding. They should use it for anti-drug adds "do you want to be on national tv looking like this".
LOL wow, big difference. I really hope she was at the dentist just before the show. Not only do her teeth need work but she sounds like she has no control of the muscles in her mouth LOL.
That was one of the most unbelievable things I've seen yet. When I watched the song video I couldn't figure out what language she was singing in. Just when I though Britney couldn't be topped on the stupid scale!
Amy Winehouses mother, Janis, has written her drug addict daughter an open letter, in the hopes of reaching her in a new way.
The Rehab singer has refused treatment for her junkie ways.
The letter reads:
Dear Amy,
I HOPE you understand why Im writing this. We have spoken recently but many people will wonder why I havent run down to whatever hotel youre staying in, scooped you up and taken you home for a hot bath and a steaming bowl of chicken soup.
Its because your father and I know what youre like, Amy.
We want to help you, but we know that unless you want to be helped unless you come to usanything we tried would be in vain.
So this letter is my way of making sure that you know thatthat all you have to do is come to us, Amy, and well do everything in our power to get you well again.
After all, you are still my baby and you always will be.
I pile hope upon hope that you will make that decision, Amy, and your strong will can bend for just a moment to make that decision and come home to me.
Even when you were only a rosy-cheeked five-year-old singing into a hairbrush in front of the mirror, you had a will as stubborn as a mule. Do you remember?
We couldnt ever get you to see things from any angle other than your own. You could swear day was night and Heaven help anyone who tried to disagree.
You were never a wayward daughter but you always had a strong will and a mind of your ownqualities your father and I were so proud of.
You were well brought up, you had a keen sense of right from wrong and you understood the values we always impressed on you as a family.
But you would never be pressurised or influenced into doing something if your heart wasnt in it.
I know theres no point in me ringing you, fussing over you or ordering you to do something. I need you to take that first step, darling. I need you to call me, to pick up that phone and tell me whats troubling you.
Your father and I would like nothing morewherever you are, whatever you need, were here for you day and night. I hope you know that. We were terrified after we saw those pictures of you earlier this week, wandering the freezing streets of London at dawn in your underwear. All I wanted to do was rush into those pictures and wrap you up in a big, warm blanket.
Do you remember those Decembers long ago when I used to swaddle you in a thick winter coat? I used to wrap you up and give you a kiss on the nose before you went out to play in the cold.
Dont worry about me Ma, Ill be fine! you used to laugh. But, like any mother, of course I worried. Just as Im worrying now.
Because I know that however big, grown-up and successful my Amy gets, she still needs the love of her Ma.
Do you remember on January 14 this year, when your album got to number one? Do you remember how overjoyed your father and I both were? We shed tears of joy for you that night.
And not just because we were delighted for your success, that you had finally fulfilled that childhood dream of singing your heart out in front of millions. But also because finally, the whole country thought our little girl was just as special as we knew you were.
Some wonderful things have happened since that night, darling, but also some not so wonderful. Blake, your husband, might not be my favourite personyou know that, Amybut hes your choice and I would never say anything about him to hurt you.
When I was quoted recently as saying Thank God Blakes inside what I meant was that putting him in jail might help him to clean up HIS act and change HIS life.
It wasnt said out of viciousness or to upset you. If your relationship is meant to be, it will survive.
Im a great believer that everything in life happens for a reason, a purpose. And if you two are destined to be together forever, then so be it.
But I want you to love Blake for who he is, Amy. Not because you feel sorry for him, or because he can get you doped up. Not for any other reason than that you have respect for him.
I completely understand and sympathise with how you feel heartbroken over your separation and Id do anything to help you end that unhappiness.
No mother likes to see her child suffering like that.
Having to cancel your tour, as well, has been very sad. But I know its happened for the best.
Despite disappointing all of your fans, who I know you treasure so much, maybe it will pull you up and make you stop and think and take stock of where your life is going.
I pray it does. I hope it makes you realise that although you might be a superstar, youre not superwoman.
Early fame has overwhelmed you, its dizzied you and muddled your mind. For a moment, forget youre a superstar. Youre also young and vulnerable. Remember youre just an ordinary human being, no stronger than any of the rest of us. You think youre strong enough to get through this on your own, darling, but youre not.
I want you back, and Ill make you fitter and stronger. Id like nothing better than to have you home and help you put on a bit of weight with some wholesome home cooking.
Youre at your happiest in family situations, I remember. Its part of that strong Jewish tradition you were raised in. Remember how you spent time with my sister before the gig in Newcastle the other week? You felt comfortable and at ease. Thats how I know family is important to you.
But I cant force you to do something you dont want to. You have to want it to happen darling, you have to ask for it.
Me and your father, and your brother Alex all want you to be happy and quickly restored to full health. For the moment, thats all of our priorities.
We are concerned, but were not panicking. Youve got to see things in your own time and Im sure you will.
You are a brilliant talent, of course, and if you get yourself well, youll be able to go on and fulfil your destiny.
Youre a true professional who thrives on work and you need to get back into that routine.
We know you dont want to let your fans down. We know how important they are to you and how once youre over this present setback youll give them a show theyll never forget.
You know Im an optimist, and that I think, with our help, you will get back on top of things.
But I know you must come to me first for that to happen.
I just hope that, because of this letter, you do. Pick up the phone.
I'm sure most of you know, but Amy entered rehab a few weeks ago and preformed last night at the grammys. Here is her preformance. Now, compare this to the first video I posted..
She seems to be doing better, you can understand her and I really hope she continues this path to recovery because she truely is talented.
