    Uh, recently, actually. But that's not the issue here. IMO Winehouse suffers from mental illness and needs a chance to manage her health correctly & not spiral into chemical dependency as a way of feeling "normal" and functioning.

    I always say drug addicts fall into two categories- nice people who have trouble living life on life's terms, and troubled people who can't live with themselves as they are so they use drugs to escape their realities.

    They all deserve a chance to be healthy.

    I'd feel the same way about Winehouse whether she was anonymous or a "Big Star." The difference for her is that she can afford the best healthcare money can buy when others cannot.

She's too much of an asshat and I know she's just going to piss her money away on Starbucks and paparazzos' foot surgeries. Winehouse is just going to ingest her earnings through her nose. No sense in wasting any more money on her. I like artists I can half-way respect as well as enjoy audibly.
    No matter what Amy Winehouse does she's infinitely more respectable than Britney Spears. There's no comparison in my opinion. Amy Winehouse is a musician, Britney Spears is a pop tart who used to be a decent dancer, but was never a good singer.

    As for Amy being attractive, that's a matter of opinion, but I think this:



    is quite a bit more attractive than Janis:



    All I'm saying is I don't think someone like Janis Joplin could ever get a record contract in music today. And that's a shame.

    You can't compare someone with hair and makeup with another without hair and makeup.

    Lol, are you serious? You can't tell by looking if someone is attractive or not? If you are pretty you are pretty without makeup. It isn't like either of their facial features are being covered up. Obviously it is a matter of opinion, but I think Amy Winehouse was quite beautiful before all of the drugs.

    This is the best Janis pic I could find:

    Every once in a while she cleans up well, but she's NOT an attractive woman.

    She's gotten some flack for her sound from people that are ignorant about British "Blue Eyed Soul" singers from the 60's, such as Dusty Springfield.

    With all these vapid Nicole Richie "famous for nothing" types running around, it's sad that one of the few celebrities out there with actual talent is pissing everything away.

    I agree with Mad Maxine; she's probably bipolar and heavily self-medicating.

    It's a shame though.

    "Fade to Black" is one of the few recordings I've heard in recent years where I like every song. Not one of them seems like "filler". She's very talented.

    Again, it's a matter of opinion. You could find terrible candids of anyone.

    Allz I know is she left a 5 star resort bathroom COVERED in vomit and blood, and they had to shut down a hotel lobby/restaurant area bc she threw up all over the couch.

    I'm boycotting her.

    In this entire slideshow, there's only ONE pic I see of Amy Winehouse that is even a little attractive. She's fucking ugly. And she looks like absolute shit for being only 24. I think that's proof enough someone like Janis Joplin could've had a chance in the current market. Obviously Janis would've been given hair and makeup same as Amy - in Janis' day hippie was cool so she wasn't all made up the way all singers are now. Remove Amy's hair and makeup and she'll look at LEAST as blah as Janis did.

    And I've seen some pics of Janis, where she was done up a bit, and she looked pretty good. Like Amy.


    Anyway. I think it's a shame when anyone abuses themselves like that.

    Hey, at least this thread reminded me to download some Dusty Springfield. Something good has come of all this! ; P

    Re: Janis Joplin- NOT a slam against soul singer Joss Stone but I think they look similar and Joss is "selling". If Janis had been glammed up no one would have slammed her looks as much. (People say the same shit about Diana Ross.)

    (Sadly, Janis is remembered as a sweet soul. She was just left to her own devices.)

    If Amy never performs again, that's fine- she just needs help! It's degrading to all to watch.

    According to Wiki:

    When she was ten she founded a rap group called "Sweet N Sour."

    Amy Winehouse is far from attractive.

    I agree she can sing, but nothing about her now makes me want to go see her perform. I can wait a few months and watch people do drugs and make fools of themselves for free. She has a lot of potential, and geared in the right direction could be even bigger than she is. I just hope she doesn't waste her talent and go so far down the tubes that she can't recover professionally or physically. She's a hell of a singer, plus I thought she was a real looker for a while.


    And I agree, Britney Spears has less talent than my flip-flop.

    any interview i've read, she always says that she thinks/knows she's worthless, that she's a total codependent, that she'd be nothing without her husband, despite their beyond tumultuous relationship.

    it's really sad.

    it happens a lot.

    i wouldn't be surprised if it was revealed that he's pimped her.
