One Last Binge Before Grammy Awards?

Contrary to her wildly popular single, "Rehab," British singer Amy Winehouse reportedly ">plans on detoxing in Israel for the new year. But she's not going without one last blow out:

A pal said Amy — nominated for six Grammies — is desperate to shine at the glittering Los Angeles awards ceremony on February 10.

“She wants to give the performance of her life in LA. But she’s going to throw a party over Christmas — which will probably be a messy affair.”

Messy doesn't even begin to describe it, we're sure.

Alright, so Amy Winehouse isn't really using her stricken, streaked face to sell cocaine, but she should: the singer makes addiction look so glamorous! Someone cut us a line and knock out our front teeth, please!

• Bid2Beat AIDS' eBay auction keeps on trucking. Our favorite item of the day? This "rare," autographed The Gossip album. We're not sure what Beth Ditto means by "No Lust Is Good Enuff," but we're pretty sure that's not how you spell enough. Anyway, the current bid's $11.99. We expect it to be at least $12.35 next time we check. If it's not, well, AIDS wins.

Amy Winehouse doesn't only have a raging coke addiction, she's got six Grammy nominations, too!

Remember when Amy Winehouse didn't look like a half-dead junkie from hell*? No, we don't either.

*Note the British singer's rosary is wrapped around her bra strap. Although, there's the possibility Winehouse is making a political statement. She is, after all, a nice Jewish girl. Or was, at least…

A Lesson In How To Go From Talented To Tacky


Amy Winehouse drew laughs when she snorted some coke during a recent concert and got gasps for her dysfunctional Blender interview:
Now her words are slurred, her eyelids drooping. Her head wobbles into a nod. She falls asleep for a second, wakes with a start, mutters and drops off again. The smoldering cigarette in her left hand falls to the floor.

“Oh, God, what is wrong with me?” she asks, coming to. “There’s something wrong with me…”

This girl has officially become a caricature of herself. What's more, her seemingly bottomless thirst for self-destruction's getting a bit tired. Either OD or clean up your act, girl!

And Friends...


Amy Winehouse chose to go on vacation over shooting "Valerie" with Mark Ronson. So, rather than scrapping the shoot, they used people from the crowd, starting with a Winehouse look-a-like. It's a bit awkward, but we dig the song - and Ronson - so we're posting it, anyway.

After the jump: "Oh My God" featuring a cartoon Lily Allen and "Just" with Alex Grenwald.

Dolly Parton took center stage at last night's Academy of Country Music special awards ceremony, at which she received the Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award. Accepting the award from former singing partner, Porter Wagoner, Parton said:

I've seen a lot of wonderful things happen in this business, all sorts of styles, but it's always remained country music. I like feeling like I'm one of the old-timers in the business, but I'm out there every day. I may be a pioneer, but I'm blazing new trails all the time, so don't give up on me.

Girl, we'd never give up on you. We have, however, given up hopes of you ever resembling a human again. Seriously, Parton, did you go to Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, because you look like a straight-up Muppet.

In other Dolly-related news, the country crooner invited Amy Winehouse and new hubby Blake Fielder-Civil to Dollywood for a little honeymoon. And, of course, a little sing along and a whole lotta booze…
