Fans beg Winehouse to quit drugs after video
Fans of troubled singer Amy Winehouse have begged her to get help after she was caught on video apparently smoking crack cocaine.
Footage obtained by The Sun appears to show her inhaling fumes from a crack pipe after an apparent 19-minute drugs binge in which she snorted ecstasy, cocaine and admitted to taking Valium tablets.
The disturbing images were said to have been filmed during a party at Winehouse's London home in the early hours of last Friday, just before she attended a court hearing for husband Blake Fielder-Civil. He is awaiting trial on charges of assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
Looking dishevelled and wearing a grubby black vest in the video, Winehouse was barely able to talk. When friends ask her to go out with them, she is heard to reply: "I'd be useless to you because I've had about six Valium."
On the singer's website, fans warned the 24-year-old that she would die unless she sought help.
One fan said: "That video of you at home, which is now doing the rounds, will hopefully be instrumental in getting you where you need to be."
The fan quoted the mother of the late Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain, warning Winehouse not to "join that stupid club" of dead rock stars.
