Amy Winehouse’s hedonistic lifestyle is clearly taking its’ toll on the singer as she lashed out at photographers on her way to visit her husband in jail.

Pictured on her way to London’s HM Pentoville prison to visit husband Blake Fielder-Civil who is being held there after being accused of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, it looks as though 24-year-old Amy is struggling to keep it together.

Agressive Winehouse’s erratic behaviour has gone from bad to worse, pulling a series of VERY strange facial expressions, unable to hide her contempt at the awaiting media circus.

The increasingly troubled singer, who has previously admitted to a heroin addiction and once collapsed after a drugs overdose, has been provoking concern lately after a string of incidents have caused her career to spiral into crisis.

Once hailed as the most important female artist of her generation, Amy has made a mess of her UK tour so far, performing a shambolic gig in Birmingham last week, where she forgot her words, fell over and swore at the audience.

At a most recent gig, she arrived 40 minutes late on stage, rambled incoherently and disappeared off-stage repeatedly.

Miss Winehouse told the audience at the Empress Ballroom in Blackpool that she dearly loved her husband Blake Fielder-Civil.

She said she had missed his prison phone call that night and added: “He would have loved to have been here. I spoke to him last night but I can only call either before or after EastEnders.”

Babyshambles frontman, Pete Doherty has spoken out in defence of Amy, insisting her husband’s absence is to blame for the star’s behaviour.

Doherty said: “I speak to Amy almost every day. She just wants her man back for Christmas. They are desperately in love.

“One good thing is that Blake has got clean since he has been in prison. It’s been quite an awakening.

“They are going to lose each other if it carries on. Love, music and melody is the way forward.”
