Amy Winehouse Smokes A Blunt While On Holiday

Puff, puff ... give
Saturday, February 7th, 2009

It’s a very good thing that Amy Winehouse does not have an endorsement contract with Kellogg’s because after seeing this new photo of Amy on holiday in the Caribbean on the island of St. Lucia, well, she’d prolly get fired from that endorsement deal. Check out this photo of Amy shamelessly puffin’ on, what looks to be, a hand-rolled cigarette … I think it’s safe to guess what exactly she’s got packed in that fattie she’s smokin’:


POP junkie AMY WINEHOUSE puffs on a cannabis joint on holiday — in her battle AGAINST drug addiction. Pals say the Rehab singer, 25, smokes ten spliffs a day on Caribbean isle St Lucia to suppress cravings for class-A drugs. And they are ENCOURAGING her £500-a-week habit — as it has been giving her the munchies and helping her back to a healthy weight. A close friend said: “Amy hasn’t touched crack or cocaine for months. She has been really good. Drugs are easy to get in St Lucia but she has just stuck to smoking dope. The amazing thing is she smokes all morning then sees her personal trainer in the afternoon and is put through a gruelling workout.” The star has also been keeping busy by giving singing lessons to kids at a school near to her villa. But the headteacher was horrified when she turned up at class wearing a bra and skimpy vest. A source said: “They scrabbled around and found a spare PE kit for her to wear. Because she’s so tiny, it fit.”

Truth be told, if this report is really true … I think I would agree with these friends who are encouraging her to puff on the locoweed in order for her to gain some weight back. The use of marijuana is not illegal in all parts of the world and I suspect that it’s not at all a big deal in St. Lucia so … smoke up, Amy! If smoking keeps her away from the hard drugs AND helps her gain some weight, I’m all for it. I personally am not a fan of smoking anything but to each their own. In fact, I think it would be a GREAT idea for Michael Phelps to take a little vacay to St. Lucia while he fulfills his 3-month suspension from USA Swimming. At least down there, he wouldn’t get into any trubble … as long as he stays far away from the cameras.

Clare Danes & Hugh Dancy Are Gettin’ Hitched!

Tyin' the knot at long last!
Saturday, February 7th, 2009

Yay! Congratulations are in order for supercute couple Clare Danes and her beau Hugh Dancy who just got engaged to be married! US Weekly magazine is reporting that the pair have finally decided to get hitched:


Claire Danes and her British boyfriend, Hugh Dancy, are engaged, her rep confirms to Usmagazine.com. The couple have been inseparable since meeting on the 2007 film Evening. At the NYC premiere of Confessions of a Shopaholic, Dancy explained to Us what he looks for in his perfect girl. He told Us, “Someone who’s intelligent, somebody who makes me laugh. I know people always say a good sense of humor, but they’re usually lying. Somebody who kind of has an independent life and ambition.” Would Dancy — who appears opposite Isla Fisher in Shopaholic — consider making another film with his bride-to-be? “Never say never,” he told Us at the Sundance Film Festival. “There’s no list of people I wouldn’t work with, up to and including Claire. Obviously, I respect her as an actress immensely!” No word yet on when Danes, 29, and Dancy, 33, plan to walk down the aisle.

I don’t know why but I totally thought that these two had been together longer … it seems like they’ve been this adorable couple for a few years. In any event, it’s been quite a few months since we’ve seen photos of this couple out and about. As you may recall (or, most likely, you do not recall) the couple jetted off to Italy for a little holiday together back in July. I seem to recall that the couple looked very happy and very much in lurve :) I am thrilled that these two decided to take the plunge … they make a great couple and I wish them all the happiness in the world. Congrats!!
