Amy Winehouse will need "a miracle"
Amy Winehouse will need "a miracle"
Amy Winehouse will need "a miracle" to make it through her show.
Friends claim the troubled soul singer is drinking so much alcohol, she will
be lucky to avoid "public humiliation" when she steps onstage with KC and
The Sunshine Band at the St. Lucia Jazz Festival.
Doctors on the Caribbean island reportedly ordered the 25-year-old star to
clean up her act last weekend after she was hospitalised with dehydration,
but Amy has ignored their pleas.
A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "Amy spends all her time
boozing the days and nights away. Following her hospital visit she's done no
rehearsing for her comeback show despite knowing how important it is for
fans and friends in St. Lucia.
"Amy has gone back to her wild child ways. She's moody, erratic, drunk and
volatile. Everyone around her is starting to think it will be a miracle if
she makes it through her set this Friday."
The festival will be Amy's first performance of 2009 and more than 6,000
fans are expected to fly to the idyllic island to see her perform.
Amy's spokesman has denied the alcohol abuse rumours, insisting the troubled
star is eagerly awaiting the show.
He said: "Amy is fine and raring to go. Her band are on their way over to
St. Lucia as we speak and as soon as they arrive she will start rehearsing
again and renew her commitments."
Meanwhile, Amy's father Mitch is worried the star's friends are taking
advantage of her, charging expensive meals and alcohol to her expense
account.
Another source said: "Mitch knows Amy has to get this comeback concert
right. He doesn't want Amy to be lonely, but he doesn't see why she should
pay for friends to have a good time."
