After being denied a visa for “narcotics abuse,” and then being given one at the last minute on appeal, and then being like, “fuck that” and just staying in London and performing via satellite, drug-’n-booze-addled Amy Winehouse’s truculence has been rewarded with Grammy gold.
Amy Winehouse won three of the big four general categories at the 50th annual Grammy Awards Sunday night: record of the year, song of the year (a songwriter’s award) and best new artist, giving her five awards for the night.
‘Rehab’ won Song of the Year, and Record of the Year. Eat it, narcs.

If I’m not mistaken she was looking much much better. Her eyes and skin looked clear, and if she was a bit wobbly on her spindly little legs it had more to do with gravity. (The girl needs a sammie!) It was really quite touching and it made me happy.

I love the ongoing tradition of the Grammys almost never giving “Best New Artist” to a new artist.
