See, and you thought making insane amounts of money from music, being idolized by millions and having an unfettered access to whatever your little heart desired equaled a life filled to the brim with never-ending happiness. Well to put the kibosh on such fantasies I put fourth exhibit A: Amy Winehouse and her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil and exhibit B: Bobby Brown & his ex-wife, Whitney Houston.
Yesterday, Amy’s father-in-Law, Giles Fielder-Civil (please explain to me how a man can have two last names) called for a fan boycott of Amy’s music saying that his son & daughter-in-law were, basically, out of control crack addicts. This followed an incident (that the press just won’t let go of) where Blake found Amy in a drug/booze binge in a seedy hotel with a hooker and the couple put a smackdown on each other that left them both bruised and bloody.
On this side of the pond, Bobby Brown is desperately trying to maintain hold on his former meal ticket. He has been vigorously fighting to have his divorce from ex-wife Whitney overturned all while he has a lawsuit filed against her for not allowing him visitation with their 14 year old daughter. You gotta laugh.
Maybe he can team with K-Fed on a project. Anyway…
These people all had so much going for them. it’s such a shame, I LOVE Amy Winehouse. I hope everything works out for her. Ditto for Whitney. Mr. Winehouse I can’t comment on but there’s no hope for Bobby Brown.
