Amy-Jade Winehouse (September 14, 1982) is a six-time Grammy Award-nominated British soul, jazz singer. Her debut album, Frank (released in 2003) was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Her 2006 album Back to Black led to six Grammy Award nominations including the big 4 for Best New Artist, Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year. She won the Ivor Novello Award in 2004 for her debut single "Stronger than Me" and again in May 2007 for the first single "Rehab" from her 2006 album Back to Black. On 14 February 2007, she won a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist; she had also been nominated for Best British Album. On 17 July, Back to Black was announced as one of the 12 albums on the 2007 shortlist of Mercury Prize nominees and later that year she was nominated for three MTV Video Music Awards and "Mejor artista nuevo internacional" or "best international new artist" in Los Premios MTV Latinoamérica.
Personal Life Since her rise to fame, Winehouse has been the subject of much media attention. On 18 May 2007, she married on-off boyfriend Blake Fielder-Civil in a secret ceremony in Miami, Florida. The marriage came as a surprise to fans and even family as the two had split two years earlier, the break-up inspiring several of the songs on Back to Black. Quickly, however, the couple began to be embroiled in a series of scandalous incidents. In various interviews, Winehouse has denied having bipolar disorder but has admitted to having problems with eating disorders and self-harm. She has attributed these problems to insecurities about her appearance. In August 2007, they entered a rehab facility, and she canceled a number of shows in the UK and Europe, citing exhaustion and ill health. However, they left after just five days-to her family's dismay. Her father subsequently voiced concerns that his daughter and her husband would at some point "reach rock bottom". The singer's parents-in-law also made their fears public, and urged fans and the industry to boycott her music in an attempt to halt her decline. In a separate interview, her mother-in-law said she was worried that Amy and Blake had become so inseparable that if one were to commit suicide, the other would follow. In October 2007, Winehouse and her husband were arrested in Norway for possession of marijuana. The couple were later released and fined 3850 Norwegian kroner (around £350). The singer claims she was "duped" into confessing to possession of illegal drugs and vowed to fight the United States ban on her travel there triggered by the arrest. Also during this period the singer and her husband were photographed bloodied and bruised in the streets of London after a hotel room fight allegedly started when, according to the singer as quoted by a tabloid newspaper, she was spotted by her husband doing drugs with a call girl. Her husband was one of five men arrested on 9 November 2007 on a charge of trying to pervert the course of justice in relation to an alleged assault on a bartender in June 2007. He was denied bail and remained in custody, pending investigations until at least the 18 January. Reports state that there is no suggestion Winehouse is involved. /images of the singer outside her home in London in the early hours of the 2 December barefoot and wearing only a bra and jeans appeared on the internet and in some tabloid newspapers. In a statement her spokesman blamed paparazzi harassment for the incident and said: "The constant bombardment by certain agency photographers at her home has increased anxiety and caused disturbance." and that the singer "has been under the care of physicians due to physical and emotional strain". Winehouse, who has previously admitted to using heroin, is believed to be having medical treatment for drug problems.
