Fans Confused -- Wino Not a No-Show for Gig

Posted Sep 7th 2008 3:11PM by TMZ Staff

In a stunning blow to bookies worldwide, Amy Winehouse actually managed to make her scheduled headlining appearance at the Bestival festival on the Isle of Wight yesterday.

True to form, however, she did hit the stage forty-five minutes late, leading to a greatly abbreviated set. In her defense, anyone who can drink two cases of Jack Daniels at the rate of one bottle per minute and make it anywhere but the morgue is a genuine superstar.

5. So TIRED of her and her antics...flush her already....she's crap!!!

6. Don't worry about flushing Amy. I made the $5,000 bet back in April that she won't see Christmas. The money is still on schedule. She has to die before Christmas because Amy believes that because she's famous she can't die. That's why she does the things she does and it's why she's a dead woman walking.

8. I seriously feel like I am watching someone die. We sit here and make fun out of her while she is fighting a disease that is taking her looks, her sanity and her life. This is sad and heartbreaking. Hate al you want but when she dies will you be laughing? What if it was your sister or daughter. Lots of people have drug addictions and us loving every minute of her demise is SICK!

9. Put all the crap to the side she is still a great singer with a style that is classic and can pull it off with the image she gives. She is a person like everybody else going through her struggles but for the world to see, and that comes with the fame! she is probably trying to handle and learn from this but is really messed up in the head from all the pain and heartache love can bring. I hope she gets things in order in her life to become a better person for herself and to become the entertainer she knows she can be>
