Amy Winehouse - Grammy Awards 2008
Posted on February 24th, 2008 by PinoyUnited
Amy Winehouse had her major breakthrough over four yearS ago and she had received numerous accolades and awards since then. This year, Amy Winehouse won 2008 Grammy Awards in the categories of ‘Record of the Year’, ‘Song of the Year’, and ‘Best Female Pop Vocal Performance‘ for the single “Rehab”, while her album Back to Black won in the ‘Record of the Year’ award and a nomination for ‘Album of the Year’. She also earned a Grammy in the ‘Best New Artist‘ category. Now that’s fantastic, isn’t it?
It’s a shame Amy Winehouse didn’t make it in the U.S to received all those awards as her US visa petition was apparently denied. Was it due to drug addiction/drug related issues? Amy had her visa approved eventually but it was rather too late for her to travel for the Grammy Awards Night 2008 event. Instead, Winehouse performed “You Know I’m No Good” and “Rehab” at the awards ceremony on 10th February 2008 via satellite.
It would be such a waste of talent if Amy Winehouse just go down the drain due to her alleged “heroin addcition“. Let’s all hope that all those Grammy awards she received will inspire her to move forward. Coupled, of course, with the assistance of the Drug Rehabilitation program she’s receiving and family support.
How many celebrities do you know had been ruined by drugs? Can you name a few?

She’s British mate. She did win a lot of Grammy Awards with her album Rehab. I quite like Valerie as well.
