Troubled pop singer Amy Winehouse has been cautioned for common assault, police have confirmed.

The star, whose battle against drug addiction has overshadowed her recording success, spent the night in the cells at Holborn Station in London.

The 24-year-old singer was questioned by police about an alleged assault in north London on Wednesday.

She agreed to attend the station voluntarily but has now left the police building.

Winehouse's spokesman said in statement: "Amy Winehouse was questioned this morning at a London police station in connection to an incident in Camden in the early hours of 23 April, 2008.

This woman is the only person I know of that is more screwed up than Brittney Spears, and yet she continues to be admired and loved by many. Instead of getting help and turning her life around, she simply continues on because her 'fans' continue to justify her destructive existence.

The only way she will ever get it turned around and maybe live past 30 is if the people who claim to love her actually start acting like it.

Very sad for such a talent.

Poor Amy, I do feel sorry for her. I wonder if she will make it through?

I guess some stars are meant to burn brightly, then burn out.

The cynical view is that there is money to be made out of her at the moment.

But then again perhaps she is being offered help and is refusing same.

As CC said it's sad to see such talent in such a state.

This will shock you, Nazh:

Completely agree.

It doesn't shock me that you agree James :) it shocks me that the others seemed to try to justify her.

I doubt she will change her ways. She has a good voice but I don't think she has much intelligence, nor those around her.

Lord Nazh said...

That's more of what I'm thinking beaman.

Some just crave attention whether it be good or bad , as long as they receive it. I think she likes the lifestyle she leads too much to want to change it. I don't feel sorry for her one bit, she wanted the fame, she has it, all for wrong reasons. If a guy was to head butt another and carry on how she has, one can bet the law and society would be a lot harsher.
