Amy’s Drug Fest Needs to Stop Says Dad
Amy Winehouse's father Mitch has pleaded with the singer to seek help.
Mitch is so concerned about Amy - who was caught on camera smoking what appears to be crack cocaine after also reportedly taking ecstasy and Valium last Friday (01.18.08) - he rushed to her east London home yesterday (01.22.08) in a bid to save her from her drugs hell.
He said: "I'm off to see Amy now. I've spoken to her already and she is fine. She says she is OK, so no problems. To be honest, all that picture shows is what everybody knew anyway.
"Yes, obviously I am worried about her but this picture doesn't show anything we didn't already know before."
The video was shot just five hours before Amy arrived at a London court to support her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, who is currently on trial for perverting the course of justice and grievous bodily harm (GBH).
Fans of the troubled 24-year-old singer are also pleading with Amy to enter rehab to kick her drugs addiction once and for all.
One supporter wrote on her official website: "Amy, please get some help before it's too late. You are an amazing talent that is going to burn out way too fast.
"That video of you at home which is now doing the rounds will hopefully be instrumental in getting you where you need to be."
WINEHOUSE CAUGHT SNORTING ECSTASY AND COCAINE IN NEW DRUGS BINGE (PICS and VIDEO here)
Troubled soul star AMY WINEHOUSE has been caught on camera in shocking new photographs showing the singer taking a cocktail of deadly substances during a recent early morning drugs binge.
In the video footage, taken at a party at her East London apartment around 5am on Friday (01/18/08), the singer can be seen snorting powdered ecstasy from the corner of a credit card.
Minutes later, a pal offers her cocaine and warns her against taking too much because it is highly concentrated. But Winehouse ignores the friendly advice and snorts a line of the drug, before walking around her home in a daze.
But the footage gets worse - Winehouse is later seen climbing up the stairs to her dark bedroom, where she stars wide-eyed into the camera and then lights up a crack pipe. As she inhales the smoke, her voice is reduced to a breathless croak and she can be seen mumbling incoherently to friends.
Her pals then try to persuade her to go out with them, but she confesses to having taken other drugs to help her 'come down' from her high.
She murmurs, "I'd be useless to you because I've had about six Valium."
The disturbing 19-minute footage, obtained by British newspaper The Sun on Tuesday (01/22/08), has worried Winehouse's friends and family, who are desperately urging the star to check into rehab.
One friend says, "Amy is locked in a nosedive towards oblivion - she is killing herself. The video shows a woman completely out of control... Her fans would scarcely recognise the drug-addled wreck in the video as the talented performer they love.
"We can only pray she will get a wake-up call when she watches the video herself and sees the terrible state she is in... She must get help."
Winehouse's drugs binge happened just hours before her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil was due in court over charges of perverting the course of justice, and will perhaps explain why she was late to the hearing at London's Snaresbrook Crown Court - almost missing it altogether.
Winehouse, 24, has been battling her drug demons ever since she was rushed to a London hospital last August (07) after a drugs overdose.
But she has refused to seek professional help after insisting no rehab center can cure her.
Meanwhile, Amy has stunned fans by dyeing her hair back to black, after experiencing life as a platinum blond for less than a month.
Amy Winehouse is ushered past photographers as she arrives at a clinic in Marylebone. The troubled singer was filmed taking drugs on Friday Jan 18, 2008 at 5am.
