This
day
marks
singer
Amy
Winehouse's
what
would
have
been,
the
32nd
birthday.
The
Grammy
winner
might
not
be
with
us,
but
her
soulful
voice
and
music
keeps
her
fresh
in
our
memory.
Amy
Winehouse
struggled
with
addiction
and
died
at
the
age
of
27
in
July,
2011
due
to
alcohol
poisoning.
The
singer
shot
to
immense
fame
after
her
song,
Rehab
topped
the
charts.
The
"Rehab" singer
won
five
Grammy
Awards
for
the
2006
album.
Amy
Winehouse
was
really
talented
and
the
song,
Rehab
was
written
just
casually.
The
late
singer
was
walking
the
streets
with
her
producer
Mark
Ronson
talking
about
how
her
friends
were
trying
to
check
her
into
a
rehab
for
alcohol
abuse
and
then
she
suddenly
broke
out
into
the
first
line
of
the
song.
When
Ronson
asked
whose
song
was
it,
she
simply
replied,
"I
wrote
it
off
the
top
of
my
head,
I
was
just
joking."
English
singer
and
songwriter
known
for
her
deep
vocals
and
her
eclectic
mix
of
musical
genres
found
international
success
with
her
second
album,
"Back
to
Black."
Despite
being
in
the
public
eye
and
hitting
headlines
for
her
addictions,
very
little
is
known
about
the
singer.
You
can
watch
the
Asif
Kapadia's
documentary,
'Amy'
based
on
Amy
Winehouse's
career
to
get
to
know
more.
However,
here
are
some
more
facts
to
know
about
Amy
Winehouse.
Writing
Music
Amy
began
writing
music
at
the
age
of
14
and
a
former
boyfriend
sent
a
tape
of
her
singing
with
a
jazz
band
to
an
A&R
(Artists
and
Repertoire)
man.
Wanted
to
be
a
waitress
In
Rolling
Stone's
2007
cover
story,
it
was
revealed
that
Amy
"didn't
aspire
to
be
a
musician,
though;
instead,
she
fantasized
about
being
a
roller-skating
waitress
like
the
ones
she'd
seen
in
'American
Graffiti.'" A
waitress
from
that
film
is
shown
in
the
image
above.
Rap
Band
Amy
Winehouse
formed
the
rap
group
with
her
best
friend,
Juliette
Ashby
when
she
was
just
10-years-old.
Winehouse
described
Sweet
'N'
Sour
as
being
the
"little
white
Jewish
Salt-n-Pepa" and
that
she
was
"Sour."
Addiction
Amy's
addiction
made
headlines
which
eventually
took
her
life.
Fielder-Civil
and
Winehouse's
divorce
in
2009
was
apparently
the
reason
which
got
her
introduced
to
crack
and
heroin.
Her
Super
Sexuality
The
Guardian
had
a
Q&A
with
Amy
Winehouse
in
2007
where
one
of
the
questions
was
"What
would
your
super
power
be?"
Winehouse
answered,
"super
sexuality."
In
the
same
interview,
Amy
also
revealed
how
sex
helped
her
relax,
"more
sex
and
more
gym"
was
the
simple
thing
that
improved
her
life.
Her
favourite
word
was,
"Fuckery."
Reporter
Before
winning
Grammy
awards
and
singing,
she
apparently
used
to
work
as
an
entertainment
reporter.
However,
she
found
the
job
boring
and
quit
to
find
a
career
in
singing.
The
rest
is
all
history.
Self-harming
and
disorders
Amy
once
confessed
to
self-harming
and
spoke
of
battles
with
eating
disorders.
The
English
singer
was
so
madly
in
love
with
her
then
fiance,
Blake
Fielder-Civil,
she
carved
his
into
her
stomach
with
a
shard
of
mirror
which
was
a
crop
during
a
photo
shoot
with
Terry
Richardson.
In
May
2007,
Amy
married
Blake
in
a
secret
ceremony
in
Miami,
and
got
divorced
in
2009.
Before
2007,
the
two
allegedly
cut
themselves
together
to
ease
the
pain
of
withdrawal.
