June 4th, 2008 admin

..Which is all in the course of a normal night out for Pete Doherty, of course.

Here was Pete arriving at Amy Winehouse’s pad last night - or rather, in the early hours of this morning - after he’d splashed out £5,000 to buy a portrait of his former girlfriend, Kate Moss, says Metro.

“The drug-frazzled singer also splashed out on a painting of wayward chum, Amy Winehouse and another of himself together with former Beatle, Sir Paul McCartney.” Well, nice to know he stopped off at the artist muse’s residence later, eh?

April 7th, 2008 admin

Jessica Simpson was hospitalized for a minor kidney infection and is now recuperating…with the world watching. If she so much as hiccups, we’ll bring you the breaking news.

• Amy Winehouse is said to be moving to her third house in less than four months, claiming to be running from “demons” who keep showing up to her home. Weird how all her heroin dealers are named “Demon.” Must be like “Smith” here.

• Two radio DJs you’ve never heard of are the latest in a long line of people to hate on Dane Cook, saying he’s not funny. Cook was going to respond, but he was too busy being successful, handsome and rich.

Amy Winehouse Needs This Guy’s Number

April 5th, 2008 admin

Despite a past marred with booze, drugs and who knows what else, Dennis Hopper somehow made it to 71 years old, looking great.
Yeah, this is the same guy who was found wandering naked in the Mexican jungle after a cocaine binge in the 80s. His “Easy Rider” co-star Jack Nicholson, one year his junior, should be ashamed.

Amy Winehouse Had a Rough Night

April 5th, 2008 admin

She’s been pretty reclusive lately, but that all changed last night.   Amy Winehouse had quite the evening as she gallivanted around London.

The night began with the “Rehab” singer answering the door in a pair of cutoff shorts and a see-through animal print top.  And she was none too thrilled with the throng of paparazzi waiting for her.

From there, things went from bad to worse.  Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw paid her a visit and enticed Winehouse to come out with him and a pal, singer Remi Nicole.  Right away there was drama, with an argument ensuing regarding where they were going to go.

Amy Winehouse Will Play T In The Park

March 14th, 2008 admin

AMY WINEHOUSE is to perform at this year’s T in the Park and admits: “I wish I could play Scotland every night.”

The beehived singer, 24, has confirmed her date at Scotland’s biggest music weekender to make up for pulling out of last year’s event.

The announcement follows five Grammy award wins for the star who cited “exhaustion” for her no-show last time.

Festival director Geoff Ellis revealed Amy had apologised for missing T 2007 and praised Scots fans on her last trip to Scotland.

She played two Glasgow Barrowland shows last November - just days after hubby Blake Fielder-Civil was arrested for allegedly attempting to pervert the course of justice - and admitted she was blown away by the reception. Despite battling booze and drugs addiction, Amy told Geoff she can’t wait to return to Scotland.

He said: “It’s always been the intention to have Amy come to play T in the Park after what happened last year.

“We didn’t want to put pressure on Amy but she felt really bad about pulling out and, if ever she needed reassurance about how the Scottish public felt about her, playing those two nights at the Barrowland really slammed it home.

March 14th, 2008 admin

The taxi driver embarked on an illicit relationship soon after Amy was born in 1983.

But 18 months later, he fell for a colleague he was working with in a double-glazing firm.

Their extramarital affair continued for almost a decade before Mitch eventually left his family to move in with his mistress - and then married her in 1996.

Amy and her older brother Alex grew up aware of the mistress and even had a special name for her - ‘Daddy’s work wife’.
