Amy Winehouse denied US Visa, cannot attend Grammy’s.
Amy Winehouse will not perform at the Grammy Awards this weekend because she’s been refused permission to touch down on American soil, according to her publicist
“The singer has been invited to appear at the event on Sunday after receiving an amazing six nominations for the prestigious awards,” reads a statement issued by her publicist on Thursday. “Unfortunately, her application for a visa to enter the United States of America has been rejected at this time by the American Embassy in London.
“Amy has been progressing well since entering a rehabilitation clinic two weeks ago, and although disappointed with the decision, has accepted the ruling and will be concentrating on her recovery,” the statement continues. “Amy has been treated well and fairly by the Embassy staff and thanks everyone for their support in trying to make this happen. There will of course be other opportunities and she very much looks forward to visiting America in the near future.”
