Amy Winehouse vs. Drugs
For this morning’s most disturbing (but not necessarily shocking) collision between pop culture and law, Blake Fielder-Civil admits he got Amy Winehouse hooked on drugs.
During a taped interview with the UK’s News Of The World, Blake says, among other things:
- “I introduced her to heroin, crack cocaine and self-harming. I feel more than guilty.”
- “I was there when Amy suffered her first seizure. I still break down thinking about it. We had been taking drugs all day long — heroin and crack…Then my wife, who I love with all my heart and soul, just started shaking violently in front of me.”
- “I dragged Amy into it and without me there is no doubt that she would never have gone down that road. I ruined something beautiful. Now I have to let her go to save her life. I am not abandoning her. I am doing this out of love.”
