Amy Winehouse’ Grammy Performance | Sings ‘Rehab’ & ‘You Know I’m No Good’
February 12, 2008 by Dave Parrack
Yesterday saw Amy Winehouse win five Grammy awards, to become the most successful artist at this, the 50th annual Grammies. She also sang a two song medley of Rehab and You Know I’m No Good from a London studio, after having her application for a Visa turned down until it was too late for her to make the trip.
Here, in case anyone missed it, is her performance…
She’s definitely looking better than she has for the last year or so, clean, sober, and drug free. In fact, the only thing she looks high on is the enthusiasm for being on stage, and singing in front of a crowd again. Something which has been sorely lacking of late.
Now she just needs to make 2008 a drug free year, and get back to what this proves she does best: making brilliant music.
Amy Winehouse Enters Rehab - Boss Used Shock Tactics, Husband Threatened Divorce

Amy Winehouse has finally entered rehab, voluntarily checking herself in to hopefully get rid of the need to use copious amounts of drugs and drink she seems to need to cope with life.
Her out of control drug abuse finally reached a climax after The Sun obtained a video of her smoking from a crack pipe and plastered it all over the Internet for all to see.
Her record company released the following statement:
“She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction and prepare for her planned appearance at the Grammy awards/ Amy entered the facility by mutual agreement and continues to receive the full support of all concerned.”
“Amy is the most talented and important musical artist of her generation and has made huge strides on her road to recovery. The label has always had the best interests of Amy at heart and has been guided by her family and doctors in the last few months as to the best direction to take.”
It does seem to have taken some quite drastic measures to finally persuade her to go through with it however.
