AMY WINEHOUSE TOUR SHOWS CANCELLED DUE TO DRUNKEN CONCERT PERFORMANCE
Just when we thought Amy Winehouse couldn't back track from the "progress" she's been making as of late, we were wrong once again...
This past Saturday [June 18], Amy Winehouse showed up nearly an hour late to the kick-off of her European tour in Serbia. The concert took place at Begrade's Kalemegdan Park, where Amy Winehouse was stumbling across stage, mumbling through her songs, and occasionally exiting the stage leaving her band and back-up singers to perform in her place amongst a boo-ing crowd of 20,000.
Check out the footage from the concert:
This was the first out of twelve shows she would be doing around Europe, but has now cancelled a few of her upcoming shows today in Istanbul and this upcoming Wednesday in Athens. The singer's rep commented, "Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, [Winehouse] 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." Fans will be notified as soon as possible in regards to her other shows scheduled for the European tour.
It's difficult to see Amy Winehouse, only 27, struggling through ongoing substance abuse, where she is seen going in and out of Rehab [no pun intended]. Her erratic behavior is not only portrayed in tabloids, but also to her millions of fans who have supported her and her music throughout the years. This carefree attitude shows that she doesn't care about her well-being and her music, which makes fans start not to care. The basic point is that through Amy Winehouse's highs and lows, we all still want to see her succeed because she has unbelievable talent. We still believe in you, you just need to believe in yourself!!!
You Just Do You, Imma Do Me
