Singer was only clean for ten days, according to media

Amy Winehouse is back on drugs , The Sun newspaper is claiming today (February 28).

The tabloid states that friends say she is abusing cocaine, ecstasy, cannabis and alcohol.

Their sources also say that Winehouse was only clean for a maximum of ten days, in an effort to gain a visa for the Grammy Awards earlier this month (February 10) - they also claim a friend smuggled drugs in to the singer while she was attending rehab.

According to The Sun, a friend told how Winehouse burnt herself with a lighter, saying: “My life is a shell of what it was. It's like the whole world is now stillborn. Colours aren't as bright, love doesn't feel real. I don’t know who I am and I just feel numb.”

Winehouse recently performed with producer Mark Ronson and on her own at last week’s Brit Awards (February 20), where The Sun claim she was back on drugs.

i hate The Sun newspaper. It has an opinion of what a celebrity should be like and if anyone differs from it they set about ruining the persons life and making stories up about them then pass it off as something "a friend" has said

If people taking drugs was not tabloid paper worthy then people like Amy and Pete Doherty would find it so much easier to quit because the sewer rats who claim to be their friends will do anything for money and if its exploiting their so called friends like this, they will do it.
