Train Wrecks
Amy's Mom to Wino -- Get Your S*** Together!

Amy WinehouseThere's no question that Amy Winehouse is a very hot mess. And no one apparently knows this better than her own mother. Nothing like calling your daughter out in public!

In an open letter published in the UK's News of the World, Janis Winehouse pleads for her daughter to get help.

In the letter, Janis writes, "You are still my baby and you always will be. I pile hope upon hope that you will make that decision, Amy, and your strong will can bend for just a moment to make that decision and come home to me."

She goes on to say, "Early fame has overwhelmed you, it's dizzied you and muddled your mind ... remember you're just an ordinary human being, no stronger than any of the rest of us. You think you're strong enough to get through this on your own, darling, but you're not." Early fame. Yeah ... that's it.

124. It's so nice to know that Amy has a mother who is trying to reach out to her and be there for her no matter what. She's lucky. Some people in this world are unfortunate and don't have the love and approval of their mothers. It is sad that she's so thin and possibly on drugs, but her mother is alive and willing to stand by her no matter what. I talk from experience when I say that I haven't been the best to my mom at times, yet she still loves me and stands by me no matter what. Amy is blessed and should not take for granted the time she has with her mom. It's too important. Life's too short and before it's too late she should recognize and accept the help from the only "real" unconditional friend in her life (and pretty much anyone's life)...family...her mom.

129. If she did put it in the newpaper, it was probably because the stupid skank won't even talk to her mother.

Not hat it will do any good, Amy probably doesn't even know how to read.

130. Hey "So True", what are you, 12? Grow up and then get back to me. I will call you stupid to your face and anyone else that acts stupid. Coward, try me?

131. what an ungrateful thoughtless mess she is. let her self-destruct; we don't need any more bad role models around, if she even is one which i doubt. she doesn't care about her parents or herself, all she cares about are her drugs and her loser husband

132.

Amy, listen to your mother.

She obviously loves you without reservation and you need to admit that you need some serious help, girl.

133. Just another musician who thinks that they can somehow avoid the pitfalls of being mortal by being famous. How many more of them have to wind up dead from an overdose before the rest figure it out? And as for her mother, well...I agree with the others who say if she was really concerned, she'd seek out her daughter in private, rather than publicising herself through an "open letter" in a newspaper. Amy Winehouse has talent. I hope she figures out she's killing herself and gets some help before she actually does it.

134. I am sure her mom's heart is breaking. I truly hope something will get through to her.

I think her mother did what she felt need to be done. You could be shutting her family out right now. We don't know but I do not doubt her mother's love for her.

135. This is sad, but not a surprise. Winehouse is an addict like so many who get in her position. People with wail and cry about how "talented" she is and how the feel so sorry for her but to be honest, there is no reason to feel sorry for her. She and her husband use illegal drugs and get caught. Now she is mourning that he is not with her and spiralling down. So many people here say that her mother should not make this public. Actually, I disagree. Making it public is the only way she might be able to get to Winehouse. Calling her out is the only way she can focus a light on someone who has hidden in shadows. People do these things because the can get away from them and hide from there actions while people giggle and point from behind a computer screen and talk about how screwed up they are.
