So Just Where Is The Family Of Amy Winehouse, Now That The Grammys Are Over?
In the weeks heading up to the Grammys, you couldn't swing a beehive without hitting a photo, video, or article about Amy Winehouse and her beloved family, doing what beloved families do...helping her get into rehab, standing by her as she battled her drug demons, celebrating with her as she won five Grammy awards, and...uhm...disappearing? Family was nowhere to be found as rehabbed Amy inhaled vodka to get her buzz on:
While DJ Seb Chew manned the decks, the Rehab star played the rather unpleasantly named "Gas Chamber" game. Medics say it's dangerous because it gets alcohol absorbed directly into the bloodstream.
Our insider tells us: "Amy was the life and soul - but even we were shocked by this party trick.
"She was sat next to Kelly and Miquita when she covered one nostril, tilted her head back and sucked the vodka shot down her open nostril through a straw.
"She threw back her head and reeled in shock and everyone around her looked stunned."
Wino performed the stunt after a round of 20 shots were brought to the table. Says the source: "She necked the top of the shot and lit the rest with a lighter. Then she grabbed a straw and sucked what was left up her nose."
And her outlandish antics didn't end there. The five-times Grammy winner - who only came out of rehab last month - knocked back cocktails before begging a pal to teach her the dangerous "duttywine" dance, which can cause serious neck injury and pain.
A spy said: "Amy was on top form and begged a pal to teach her the dance where you spin your head around really fast while you wind into the ground. Amy was so into it at one point her beehive nearly fell off."
A far cry from just a few weeks ago, when Amy had her family around her, rallying her to get clean. The singer's father Mitch was an almost constant companion leading up to the prestigious Grammy awards ceremony, and he was instrumental in getting his famously rebellious daughter to check into rehab shortly before the Grammys. For a while, everything seemed to be clicking. After spending a mere two weeks in rehab, Amy emerged looking better than she has in ages, with clear eyes and bright skin, and after putting on a little bit of needed weight she looked curvy and healthy again. She gave a performance that knocked me out. You could see that she was overjoyed to be there, and overwhelmed at the awards given to her.
