Amy Winehouse, who checked herself out of rehab just a few days after she checked in this month, was the absolute picture of tragic trainwreckness this weekend as she tried to perform a concert in Serbia. Amy, who IMHO looked absolutely blitzed out of her mind, stumbled around on stage for a bit before she attempted to sing … and failed. Unsurprisingly, the rest of Amy‘s tour has been canceled as a result of her disastrous performance this weekend. The whole sad thing was captured on video that is just too sad to even be funny. The simple fact is that Amy Whinehouse is a complete mess ;(
How was your weekend? No matter what you did, it probably went better than Amy Winehouse’s. The troubled singer, who just wrapped up a stint in rehab, cancelled two upcoming dates on a brief tour after a disastrous performance in Belgrade. After taking the stage an hour late at a festival in the Serbian capital, Winehouse stumbled around, fought with her microphone, only occasionally sang her own songs and talked a lot about how much she likes some of her band members more than others. While the crowd at the show seemed to go along with her for a while, they eventually turned on her, sending boos and heckles in her direction. “Amy Winehouse has canceled appearances in Istanbul and Athens for the coming week,” her publicist told EW in a statement. “Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home. She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do.” Like most on-stage meltdowns, Winehouse’s starts off vaguely scandalous but ends up just sort of sad at the end … It’s strange to think that she was well enough to even book a tour (though it’s quite possible that because of her lack of recent musical output and her legal and rehab bills, she might need the paycheck). And a bummer to realize that at only 27, she has reached a point in her career where she is mostly famous for being a mess. We wish her the best for her personal recovery; though there are still remnants of that voice that seduced the world buried beneath the trouble, Winehouse needs to focus on her health first and worry about the stage later.
Seriously, how long can this kind of behavior continue until something truly tragic happens? I’m just amazed that the people who work for her — book her tours, take her on the road, prep her for the stage — are able to just push this drunk mess of a woman on stage and hope she gets thru the performance. But, in the end, the only person who can save Amy Winehouse‘s life is Amy Winehouse. This sort of thing has been going on for years. Until she wants to clean up and save her own life, she will continue to live like this … until she dies. Sad but true. Very sad but true :(
