Default Amy Winehouse "Retired" By Record Label

Quote:
Amy Winehouse's attempt at a European concert tour ended in Belgrade, Serbia, with a train wreck of a performance Saturday night in which she staggered around the stage and stumbled through several songs.

The audience eventually chased Winehouse off the stage with loud boos several numbers into what was supposed to be the opening show in a 12-date tour.

A representative for Winehouse said her next two concert dates have been canceled.

Winehouse representative Tracey Miller did not directly confirm that the "Rehab" singer, who has a history of battling drugs and alcohol, had fallen off the wagon. Winehouse only recently left a British rehab program that a representative said was intended to prepare her for the European concerts.

"Yes, Amy has cancelled appearances in Istanbul and Athens for the coming week," Miller told CNN Sunday. "Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home."

Video clips of the musical disaster, recorded by concert-goers' cell phone cameras, were quickly posted on YouTube. They showed Winehouse failing in every attempt to sing more than a few slurred lines of her songs. Audience members could be heard filling in the gaps, along with her back-up singers.

"She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do," Miller said.

When Winehouse entered a rehab program at London's Priory Clinic last month, a representative told CNN that "she wants to be ready for performances in Europe this summer and decided to seek an assessment."
Rehab anyone?

She came back too soon, but maybe it's time for her to call it a day now.

I think as a poster said above, she needs serious help, not lip service from those around her.

I agree, I know people are sick of seeing her like this and complain a lot but she obviously has a very serious problem with addiction and needs a very long stint in Rehab.

No I doint think thats it, she's being forced to do these concerts when she's clearly in no fit state to, she needs to be sectioned and helped.

Yeah, I agree. You'd have to wonder does anyone actually care about her at all, sending her off on a tour when she's in that kind of state is madness.

Amy Winehouse has cancelled her entire European tour in the wake of her much-maligned performance in Belgrade on Saturday.

It was confirmed on Sunday that Winehouse had canceled performances in Istanbul and Athens this week after being booed at the Belgrade concert for slurring her words and appearing incoherent throughout the performance.

The 'Rehab' singer has now officially canceled all 12 dates of her upcoming tour, which would have seen Winehouse perform in Austria, Italy, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, Romania and Hungary throughout the summer.

"Amy Winehouse is withdrawing from all scheduled performances," the singer's spokesman confirmed. "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."

Following a short stint in the London Priory clinic at the end of May to treat her addiction to alcohol, Winehouse is now said to be continuing her treatment as an outpatient.

Winehouse has yet to release any new material since her 2006 Grammy Award-winning album Back to Black.

She clearly has the hots for one of the backing singers.

I think the record company and her management have exploited the 'tortured Amy' image to a large extent ever since Rehab, in an effort to iconise her to all the other legendary torchered singers from the old days.

But all this on-the-wagon/off-the-wagon has just made her look boring - plus there's no new product. I'm tired of Back to Black and Valerie now. Where's the new album?

The worst thing to happen to Amy Winehouse career was boredom. And it's now that's happened, so buh-bye.

Plus: We have Adele now.
