Filed under: Amy Winehouse
While other people were making coffee and pouring bowls of Cheerios — and I was, well, sleeping — the Energizer Druggie Amy Winehouse was still downing martinis at a London bar at 6:00 a.m. Apparently, she’s drowning her sorrows because she’s going to be questioned by authorities about her hubby, Blake Fielder-Civil, who is in prison for alleged obstruction of justice. Although she is not a suspect in the case, they want to question her about Blake’s finances and other relevant matters.
Not to sound like an Energizer Alkie, myself, but where are these London bars that let you enjoy a three-martini breakfast? When I was there, the pubs kicked my ass out by 11 p.m.! It was even worse than Los Angeles, which starts shutting down at 1:15 a.m. At least London doesn’t have 300-lb. bouncers shining flashlights in my face and pushing me out the door. Oh, how I loooove that.
Moral of this story #1: I need a hit song, so bars will stay open for me.
Moral of this story #2: A three-martini breakfast makes one’s hair look especially lovely.

Candy, with your drinking habits I have no idea
I just moved here from TX (bars close at 2) and
why you left NEW YORK for LA?
now for some reason I think it’s a tragedy to
leave the bar before 3:45.

HGL — It IS a tragedy to leave before 4 a.m.! That is what I miss most about NYC. *SIGH* Be sure to have some early morning drinks for me.
Midevil — I was in London a few years ago, when most pubs closed at 11 p.m. The laws have since changed, I believe. Although I am definitely not sad about missing a ride on the “Vomit Comet.” Yikes. I think I’ll just stick to hanging out on my own bathroom floor. Much more comfy.

I’m not too fond of martinis for breakfast, but I do like Jack Daniels on my Fruit Loops.

I cringe every time I see a headline about her because I’m afraid she’s OD’d.

Is all that her hair? It looks like there’s someone behind her.
It’s Beehive . . . I think?

Are her fingers black or is it just the tint of the grainy photo?
