Janis Winehouse kindly took some time over the weekend to talk to the Sunday Mirror about her daughter, which is helpful to everyone: "I've known for a long time that my daughter has problems. But seeing it on screen rammed it home. I realise my daughter could be dead within the year. We're watching her kill herself, slowly. I've already come to terms with her dead. I've steeled myself to ask her what ground she wants to be buried in, which cemetery. Because the drugs will get her if she stays on this road. She's invited me to the Grammy awards next month, but part of me thinks she won't be alive by then. I look at Heath Ledger and Britney. She's on their path. It's like watching a car crash - this person throwing all these gifts away." I still maintain it's Britney on Amy's path, given the beehive and the British accent, but we shan't quibble. On the upside, at least Amy isn't some piece of taut material being tugged between two leeches - one who's blathering to Barbara Walters (that'd be Sam "he of the three restraining orders" Lufti), the other who currently has "six video diaries of Britney that he's shopping around for $2 million" (no introduction required). No, Amy just has two parents that can't help talking about her.
