Winehouse cancels UK comeback shows

After a brutally bad gig in St. Lucia which she eventually walked off in the middle of and subsequently reportedly being hospitalized for chest pains, Amy Winehouse has cancelled her comeback shows in London.
The event, which was due to take place on May 31st and was organized by Island records for their 50th anniversary, would have been Amy’s first show in her home country in a year.
A statement released by Winehouse’s management said they “regretfully announced that Amy and her band will no longer be performing at Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 31 May. Amy would like to apologise to her fans who bought tickets for the shows.”
Amy continues to live on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia where she is working on her 3rd studio album.

Because of her fame, her struggle with substance abuse is for the world to see while so many others deal with it in relative privacy. I hope that she can find the strength to overcome this deadly way of life.
