Amy Winehouse has checked herself into rehab, reportedly for alcohol addiction.
The 'Back To Black' singer visited the Priory in London for an assessment and was urged to remain at the centre by doctors.
"Amy Winehouse has embarked on a treatment programme at the Priory Clinic," her spokesperson said.
"She wants to be ready for performances in Europe this summer and decided to seek an assessment. She will remain at the Priory on doctors' advice."
Amy's father Mitch had reportedly urged his daughter to visit the centre because he was concerned about her drinking.
It is also claimed that the singer drank a small bottle of vodka from a nearby off-licence on the way to the centre.
"In true, Amy-style, she stopped off for one last hurrah and bought a mini bottle of Smirnoff," a supposed friend told the Daily Mail.
Snoop Dogg recently suggested that he tried to "lift up" Winehouse when she struggled with her addictions in the past.
Winehouse was last month reported to have told friends that she wants a baby with film director Reg Traviss, who she is also said to want to marry.
