Doctors at a London clinic determined an irregular heartbeat was the cause of Amy Winehouse’s fainting spell on Monday. The singer’s family decided to keep Amy at the clinic as long as possible in an attempt to get her weened off crack and heroin, in hopes that no more damage will be done to her fragile heart.
Dad Mitch, 57, said yesterday: “Amy is doing fine. She is staying in as long as possible.”
A source added: “She’ll be in there for a while if her family get their way. There is a feeling they can have a good crack at sorting her out this time.”
I guess, in summary, this means Wino almost had a heart attack due to her awesome crack-smoking. Pretty gnarly and sad.

Frankly, I am surprised that ingesting massive amounts of crack, heroin, cocaine, booze, pills, weed and rat poison would have an adverse affect on someone’s heart. I think Wino should get a second opinion.

wait, smoking crack is bad for you?
But cocaine is still ok, right? I’m on a diet!!!

I’m pretty sure that heart problems are a given when you’re on all sorts of drugs. I could’ve diagnosed that shit. Nobody asks me though.

It’s not unheard of, but I’m concluding it’s due to sh!t nutrition, obscene hygiene, possible blood-borne microbes (from shooting up dirty as well as cutting herself in squalid digs and possibly with filthy implements), as well as the actual mythic drug/alcohol/cigarette intake.
I don’t even want to know what she has STD-wise.

Buttonbutton, cocaine’s only a good idea if all your friends are hot and you’re kinda fat. I mean, shit, it worked for Amy.

Nomi, you forgot to add that along with the cocaine, you have to add the diet coke and cigarettes. It’s really the trifecta of the “super model diet”
