Father Of Amy Winehouse Finds Her Tribute At Fashion Show ‘In Bad Taste’
The Winehouse family recently arrived upon the six-month anniversary of daughter Amy Winehouse‘s death. And although some people suggested that her father was cashing in on Amy’s death with a tell-all book, his reactions to a Jean Paul Gaultier fashion show in Paris suggest otherwise. The designer paid homage to the singer with a very Winehouse-inspired look as models sauntered down the runway in tall black beehives and winged eyes to her music. However, Mitch Winehouse found the tribute far from endearing.
Following the fashion show, the grieving father tweeted: More »

The Winehouse Family Releases Defensive Statement About Amy Winehouse’s Death By Alcohol Poisoning
Since August, Amy Winehouse‘s family has maintained that their daughter died of alcohol withdrawal, which lends her death something of a saintly air: The singer, long besieged by problems with addiction, left this world fighting those damaging habits.

Amy Winehouse’s Bodyguards Posing with Her Ashes Is Either Very Respectful or Highly Offensive
These guys either have no respect for the dead, or plenty of it and want to protect Amy Winehouse from beyond the grave. It’s really hard to read this photo. When I first heard that Winehouse’s bodyguards were snapped posing with the box containing her ashes at her funeral, I assumed that they were dicking around and trivializing her death. But it’s actually a very solemn photo, and seems to be almost a tribute. More »

Won’t you help us make this terrible, Saw-like choice where either option ends up with us cutting off our own heads”? More »
