Blake Fielder-Civil Says His Marriage To Amy Winehouse Was "Un-Healthy"



Amy Winehouse's ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil has opened up about his violent and passionate relationship with the deceased singer.

The drug addict has recorded a new documentary from behind bars, accounting for his marriage with Amy. In the blunt feature Blake says their relationship was extremely un-healthy because of their drug addictions:
"We loved each other intensely and probably in a really unhealthy co-dependent way and we probably called it all sorts of things, passionate, fiery and whatever but sexually it was spot-on, I guess. You can’t have a relationship and be a heroin addict, you can’t. If you don’t have access to money you’re going out thieving and you’re going to be in jail half the time, it’s not a way to live. You can’t sustain love for each other when you’re constantly fighting over a bit of gear."
However Blake (32) has denied claims that he was responsible for the singer's downward spiral into drugs but admitted he was there the first time Amy took heroin.
"She took to it like a duck to water, the same as me. It is what it is for a reason, it’s an addictive thing and it makes you feel good. I can’t say how she felt but if it was anything like me then yes, she seemed to enjoy it."


Blake also revealed in Amy Winehouse: The Untold Story - to screen on Channel 5 on Thursday - what reall happened the night they were pictured with cuts and bruises and blood all over them.
"We had a mad argument, we was out of our nuts and I smashed a bottle and took a chunk out of myself. She just looked at me and out of fear or love or whatever it was and, out of some weird sense of loyalty, she did the same thing to herself. I was quite pissed off and I said ‘What the f**k’!"
Blake is currently serving 32 months in prison, for breaking into a house with a fake gun. He also says in the interview that Amy begged to see him the night before she died.

I wonder how Amy's parents will feel about this new documentary? Speaking in detail about her drug use and their abusive relationship will probably be horrible to watch.

Lady Gaga - "I used to be mistaken for Amy Winehouse"


The Queen of pop Lady Gaga has spoken out about the death of Amy Winehouse, saying that she used to be mistaken for the soul singer when she started out in the industry.

Gaga revealed her sadness at the 27-year-old's death, saying that although she didn't know Amy personally she says she was mistaken for her tonnes of times earlier on in her career:
"I loved her so much. I was nobody when she was first coming out. I have really dark hair and all the time on the street people would go, 'Amy!' And they would go, 'Back to Black'. They'd scream at me."
The 'Edge Of Glory' singer added that Amy's music made her feel good about herself:
"I loved her and I just remember feeling like I wasn't alone because she was so different and she was so special."

Gaga said she was mistaken for Winehouse with her dark hair.
 The quirky singer said that loosing such a great artist has been "devastating" and that she wants the public to treat stars better:
"It's really devastating and I think it's a lesson to the world: Don't kill the superstar. Take care of her. Take care of her soul."

Amy Winehouse's Ex Blake Not Attending Her Funeral Today


After admitting that his "tears will never dry" Blake Fielder-Civil has not been granted compassionate leave from prison to attend Amy Winehouse's funeral which takes place today.

The former husband of Amy's is already being blamed for Amy's downfall, as it is believed he is the one that got her on to hard core drugs such as heroin.

Blake was hoping to get out of prison to say a final goodbye to his ex-wife but sources say Amy's dad Mitch is glad he won't be attending, as he doesn't want him anywhere near the family.

A source said:
"Mitch thinks it would be a complete insult for him to be there and if he really loved Amy, he wouldn't cause any more heartache by showing up. There is no way back for him with Blake. He absolutely hates his guts."

"He will always believe Blake is responsible for getting his daughter hooked on class A drugs which marked the beginnning of her self-destruction.
However in attendance today will be best pal Kelly Osbourne, Celebrity Salon star and close friend Aislyne-Horgan Wallace, no word yet on Russell Brand and some of her other celebrity pals.

After a two year marriage consisting of violent fights, Amy and Blake called it quits in 2009. But the pair always maintained they were each other's soulmate.

Speaking from his prison cell yesterday Blake (29) said he will never get over her death:
"I'm beyond inconsolable ... my tears won't dry. I will never ever again feel the love I felt for her. Everybody who knew me and knew Amy knew the depth of our love. I can't believe she's dead."
Even Blake's current girlfriend, Sarah Aspin, who is also the mother of his child, revealed that Amy will always remain his soul mate.
"He is devastated and shattered. He just can't take it in that she's dead and he'll never see her again. Blake is the father of our son. But I saw him and Amy together and I know they were really in love and they were soulmates.

Blake's girlfriend and mother to his child, Sarah Aspin.


"She always loved him and he always loved her - but it was just never going to work. Basically they couldn't live with each other and they could not live without each other. It is hard for me knowing he still loved her, but I do understand his feelings."
Meanwhile, it has also been reported that Blake has been left out of Amy's £10 million will, with sources claiming the singer didn't want him to "have a penny" of her money.

Celebrity Tributes Pour In For Amy Winehouse



Celebrities all over the world have been remembering Amy Winehouse today, after her untimely death yesterday.

Mark Ronson, who worked on tracks with Amy such as 'Valerie' wrote on Twitter that the singer was like a "sister" to him:
"She was my musical soulmate and like a sister to me. This is one of the saddest days of my life."

Kelly Osbourne, a close friend of Amy's also posted a heartfelt tribute on her page:
"I cant even breath right now im crying so hard i just lost 1 of my best friends. i love you forever Amy & I will never forget the real you!"

Kelly and Amy were close friends.
 
Country singer LeAnn Rimes also paid tribute to the talented singer, saying:
"RIP Amy Winehouse. So sad to see such a talent gone and her life end in tragedy. This makes me terribly sad."
Radio DJ Fearne Cotton said: "Can not believe the news. Amy was a special girl. The saddest news."

Her untimely death means she joins the notorious '27 Club' of musicians who have died at that age after struggling to cope with fame. They include Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain who killed himself in 1994 by shooting himself, Rolling Stone Brian Jones, who drowned in a swimming pool in 1969 and guitarist Jimi Hendrix, who choked to death in 1970 after mixing wine with sleeping pills.

Kurt Cobain and other struggling musicians killed themselves at 27.


CNN host Piers Morgan also spoke about the sad news: "Such desperately sad news re Amy Winehouse. Supreme talent, terrible self-destructive addictive personality."

Presenter Phillip Schofield added: "Just heard the sad news that Amy Winehouse has died. At only 27 what a terrible waste of a great talent. Sincere condolences to her family."

Emma Bunton said: "Such sad news about Amy Winehouse. My thoughts are with her family."



Lily Allen was honest in her tribute, writing that Amy was struggling in life: "Its just beyond sad, there's nothing else to say. She was such a lost soul, may she rest in peace."

Singer Jessie J tweeted: "The way tears are streaming down my face. Such a loss."

And the tributes didn't end there. More of her fellow musicians took to Twitter to voice their sadness at the loss. Professor Green told fans: "I really hope she's at peace now. I don't wanna hear any chat about it's her own fault, addiction is a powerful demon."

Professor Green told fans not to diss Amy.


A tweet from pop band JLS read: "Times like this remind me why its so important to live life to the fullest!! Amy Winehouse you will be a LEGEND in all out hearts!"

Burlesque artist Dita Von Teese wrote: "Devastated. I spent extraordinary times with Amy. She sang for me once for hours, it was the most beautiful &touching thing. A huge loss."

Actress Demi Moore wrote on Twitter: "Truly sad news about Amy Winehouse. My heart goes out to her family. May her troubled soul find peace."

Chef Jamie Oliver wrote: "Such a terrible shame to loose Amy winehouse such a talent, such a waste, raw talent."

Presenter Davina McCall wrote: "Amy Winehouse found dead at her home. So very very sad. A huge talent."



Although this is a very sad time, and I do feel terrible for family, people do need to accept that this was her own fault and even though Professor Green said "addiction is a powerful demon" it is created by those who seek drugs or drink heavily.

Maybe this will stop a lot of other struggling addicts out there seek some help.

Breaking News: Amy Winehouse Found Dead!



This is so sad, and shocking.

Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her London home. The 27-year-old 'Rehab' singer was found this afternoon and police say her death is being treated as "unexplained".


In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said:
"Police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased. On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene. Enquiries continue into the circumstances of the death. At this early stage it is being treated as unexplained."
According to reports Amy's musician father Mitch has yet to hear the shocking news, as he is in the US performing at a jazz festival.



Winehouse had last been seen supporting her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield earlier this week as the teenager took to the stage at the iTunes festival.

At the gig Amy refused to join in for Mama Said, but did support the 14-year-old with a few dance moves before urging the crowd to buy Dionne's new album Good For The Soul.

A source said Amy was acting highly intoxicated at the gig: "Amy staggered onstage and grabbed the mic to beg the crowd to buy her protege’s new album."

Amy was in bad shape since she cancelled her European tour following a disastrous performance in June when she stumbled onto the stag.

A statement released at the time said she was taking time out to focus on her health and finally kick her addictions:
"Amy Winehouse is withdrawing from all scheduled performances. Everyone involved wishes to do everything they can to help her return to her best and she will be given as long as it takes for this to happen."
Amy first broke on the music scene back in 2006 with her multi-million selling album Back To Black, she has had a troubled life which has included various stints in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction.

Amy was currently working on her big comeback album.
