Amy Winehouse's Alleged Crack Habit on Camera

A video has leaked on the Internet allegedly showing troubled British singer Amy Winehouse taking several kinds of drugs in her own home, as she talks incoherently and wonders around in a daze.

British newspaper The Sun published pictures today showing the 24-year-old singer allegedly smoking crack cocaine at her east London home. The paper has video footage that, if authentic, is sufficient proof that she has a genuine drug addiction problem.

Winehouse has reportedly been in and out of drug rehabilitation facilities, without much success in treating her supposed substance abuse problem. If the video is real, it shows the painfully thin singer in a 19-minute drug binge, which includes the cocaine smoke, ecstasy and Valium.

The video was supposedly filmed during a house party that took place the day before she appeared in court to support husband Blake Fielder-Civil, currently in jail facing criminal charges for assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.

The footage shows her wander around the house unsure on her feet, looking confused, talking in a hoarse voice and looking for her kitten.

BBC News reports that spokesperson for Winehouse has refused to comment on the video, as has her recording company.

Winehouse arrived at Snaresbrook Crown Court last Friday late, catching the last ten minutes of an hour-long preliminary hearing when Fielder-Civil appeared on charges of inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent and conspiracy, in connection with an alleged attack on a pub owner last summer.

She looked dazed and confused, had to be helped to stand up and was in terrible shape. At the end of the hearing she blew kisses at her husband ad shouted “I love you handsome, gorgeous one.” He replied, “Alright, baby.”

Winehouse has taken her husband’s legal woes very badly and seems to be deteriorating by the day. She herself is due back in court in Bergen, Norway on Feb. 29 to appeal against a fine for possessing cannabis.

While her personal life appears to have gone to pieces, her career is peaking, with six Grammy nominations for next month’s prestigious awards ceremony, including Record Of The Year for “Rehab,” Album Of The Year for “Back To Black” and Best New Artist. She is also scheduled to perform during the event.
