Amy Winehouse Invades Our Shores

British soul singer Amy Winehouse brought her intoxicating brand of "Bride of Frankenstein" beehive chic stateside on Tuesday.

While the toothy 23-year-old is already a sensation across the pond, Winehouse just made her first U.S. television appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman" this week. "Late Show" tapes at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York, where another British import, the Beatles, made their landmark American debut in 1964.

Judging from her UK hit song "Rehab," Amy should have no trouble fitting into the Hollywood landscape!

47. I am roaring with laughter reading all these superfiscial blowhards from suburbia trashing somebody who looks different and is 10,000 times more talented than they are.

Anyone remember punk? Where are all the detractors of that now? Fat with kids?

LOL

48. Amy Winehouse is the hottest new sensation! Get hip you losers.
Her music is incredible, her style unique and her writing is 100% original.
Plus, in interviews she's funny, candid and engaging.
What have you done with your life lately? Besides throw childish putdowns at other people to make yourselves feel superior.
Amy Rocks!

49. Hey, England has socialized medicine....free to it's citizens...she does not need us! As for her tooth: I have all of my teeth and none of her talent...how about you? She will have that fixed up in no time, she is about to become a huge star over here. The british are not nearly as superficial, spoiled, or lazy as we americans....her tooth is not an issue there, only to the "perfection worshiping" americans. Our concept on what is beautiful and acceptable is warped anyways. I think she is original, talented, beautiful, and she does not need auto tune on her recordings like most of our so called performers. Aka: Britney, the Simpson girl, etc.....

50. She is so amazing....I have the honor of being able to attend her show next Monday at the Roxy in Hollywood, which sold out in minutes....not talented? Who here, running their mouths realizes that England has socialized medicine, and she makes enough money to support herself and her habits...if it is not coming out of your pockets (if you even pay taxes) why worry about it? Enjoy her or leave her alone. At least she doesn't need Auto Tune....like our bimbos that can not sing without a playback: IE, the Simpson sisters and Britney. Get over yourselves haters...she is gonna rock the US and take no prisoners..Watch!

51. I hate people, and I am ashamed at times to be associated with people that would comment so ignorantly...I suppose you all Like the President ?

52. Is everyone thirteen years old on the web ?? The girl is very talented , soulfull , with a great stage presence and a wonderfull voice . Her appearence on letterman was a powerful thing . She is not a model but a singer . Go vote for that curly long haired dude on idol that cant sing but is " pretty" . I hope you grow out of this .

53. You know, she might be the best soul singer since Aretha but damn, I can't get over the Elvira hairdo. And is that a missing tooth?

54. Her music is so wonderful! She is such a breath of fresh air! Best album of the year so far! Those of you who haven't heard her sing and are dissing on her.....check her album out it's called Back to Black and it's definetely one of the best CD's you'll be hearing this year. Or wait...maybe like you're saying the UK can have her back and we can Just keep Paris Hilton...I just can't wait to hear her next album....paaalease! Get a clue people!

55. #44 Bitch please! She's the "real thing". She'll make the so-called Neo-soul artists look and sound like wannabes? I guess you have never heard of Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and India Arie. If anything this girl looks up to those artists for inspiration. And no I don't think she sucks because she is British. I like Joss Stone.

56. Amy Winehouse is the BEST! She is highly talented and her CD is so good! I don't get why there is so many haters...just listen to her frickin' music it's such a breath of fresh air! Or wait...since you people who have been posting crap about her seem to hate her so much then we can just sender her right on back to the UK, oh but don't worry we will still have Paris Hilton here in the US.... And I just can't wait for her next album! Get a frickin' life and learn what good music is!

57. I have waited for her on iTunes and am thrilled we get to see this British mess bring some of that acceptable drunkeness over here. Her voice is crazy good.
Listen before she chokes on her own vomit. I'm glad she's here, we need someone like her. We don't have any coke-sniffing, suspicious weight-loss, too drunk, over partying types here.

58. Her music is AMAZING! She just got caught at a bad moment. She can really be quite pretty.

59. I have a missing tooth right now. An old root canal that rotted and broke, so it had to be extracted. I'm getting a Titanium implant but the gum has to be healed first, so I have to live with the gap (which luckily isn't visible, unlike Amy Winehouse's) for a couple of months - after which it will be fixed by a Dentist who is a USC Dental School graduate - people with the best reputation in the world.

Good thing I'm not English and famous - or you would all be claiming I had a "bad dentist" too. Unbelievable how petty and superficial these comments are. But I guess it's to be expected from a gossip site like this.

Me? I'm going to try and catch Amy at Spaceland on Monday. Maybe we can compare dentistry.

60. So many people judging by the picture. This girls real. Come as you are!
I saw her in Manchester UK on the 25th feb.

She was so brilliant, the best concert I've been to.
So much presence & Charisma. A voice that really gets to you like no one else on this planet!
