Amy Winehouse's Heart Still in her Music (Barely)

Singer Amy Winehouse has lung damage and irregular heart beat, says her father.

Soul diva Amy Winehouse has damaged her lungs by smoking crack cocaine and cigarettes, her father said in an interview published Sunday.

The Sunday Mirror quoted Mitch Winehouse as saying that Amy has an early stage emphysema and an irregular heartbeat, and has been warned that she will have to wear an oxygen mask unless she stops smoking drugs.

"The doctors have told her if she goes back to smoking drugs, it won't just ruin her voice, it will kill her," Mitch Winehouse was quoted as saying.
Winehouse collapsed this past week. Maybe she shouldn't have said "No" to rehab after all.

I wonder if emphysema is what causes all those nasty boils and pox blisters she slabs over with make-up. I would be afraid to touch the gal. Normally I would say lock her up for doing an illegal substance, but who am I to interfere with someone who chooses to self destruct?
