Amy Winehouse

Since I've been traveling this weekend I've done nothing but read pretty much every tabloid magazine on stands this week. Since the Grammy's were on Sunday (I havn't watched them yet), all the magazines are predicting who is going to win in each category. While I'm reading it I realized Amy Winehouse was pretty much nominated in every category. I still am trying to figure out what songs of hers I actually have heard on the radio besides her awful single, "Rehab", which is very fitting for her. So not only was I surprised to see how many nominations she had, but I was even more surprised to see how many wins "OK" magazine predicted she would get. I obviously don't think she is very deserving of numerous Grammy's based off talent, but should other outside factors, like her very public drug addction, play into effect? I don't think that all the celebrity gossip should be a party of the judges decisions, but when someone like Amy Winehouse has a serious drug problem maybe it should. People look up to her and admire her, yet she is open about her addiction and doesn't think she needs help. Maybe it's just me, but I do not think that someone so messed up in drugs should be winning numerious Grammy's. Sorry Amy!! After all, I read that she won't even be attending the Grammy's because her visa got denied!! Not heading in the right direction towards sobriety girl!
