Amy Winehouse hires personal bodyguards – Tabloid Hell

According to the Daily Star, Amy Winehouse has hired two bodyguards to guard her since a video of her allegedly smoking crack was posted online by The Sun newspaper.

The newspaper reports that two security men, one wearing a balaclava, were seen at her east London flat.

Meanwhile, Winehouse’s father, Mitch Winehouse, has made a plea to keep his daughter out of jail.

“Seeing her arrested is the last thing any of us want,” he supposedly said. “That would be terrible. Obviously I’m worried about Amy. Wouldn’t you be if you had a daughter in that state?”
