Amy Winehouse’s record label, Universal Music Group, has announced that the troubled singer has entered rehab.
“Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors,” Universal Music Group said in a statement. “She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction. Amy is the most talented and important musical artist of her generation and has made huge strides on her road to recovery. Universal Music Group wants nothing more than to see her take the time she needs to come back to full health and fulfil her incredible potential with the label. The label has always had the best interests of Amy at heart and has been guided by her family and doctors in the last few months as to the best direction to take. All concerned feel that Amy must put her health before all considerations and will be by her side whenever and wherever they are needed.”
Amy spent time with her father, Mitch, before he escorted her to the Capio Nightingale Hospital, a drug clinic in Marylebone, London, where she is due to undergo treatment for substance abuse.
Amy looks a frightened in and confused. I hope that she can get over her fears and continue to move forward with treatment. It’s good to see her finally taking a step in the right direction. Good Job Amy…Get Well!
