There are pics going around indicating that Amy is suffering from a skin disorder known as Impetigo. In case you guys don’t happen to know impetigo is a contagious skin infection that usually produces blisters or sores. The prevention…guess what…is usually a good hygienic habits! Well, so are they indicating that Amy doesn’t wash?!
On a more sober note, this can be a serious issue. I mean any kind of disorder should not be taken lightly, don’t you agree? According to TMZ report :
“One doctor said Winehouse might be suffering from MRSA, a dangerous staph bacteria that’s resistant to antibiotics.
Another doctor said the problem in figuring it out from the picture is that Amy has so much makeup on, it’s hard to see the exact nature of the skin condition.
And still another doc said he didn’t think the condition is caused from drug use (not that Amy uses drugs), because the lesions were not oval-shaped, which is a marker.”
Well, we do hope she gets better!

Amy Jade Winehouse (born 14 September 1983) is an English soul, jazz, and R&B singer and songwriter.
Winehouse’s 2003 debut album Frank did well in her native Britain commercially and critically. It was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Her 2006 follow-up album Back to Black led to six Grammy Award nominations and five wins (tying the record for the most wins by a female artist in a single night ), including three of the “Big Four”: Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year. On 14 February 2007, she won a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist; she had also been nominated for Best British Album. She has won the Ivor Novello Award twice, among other prestigious distinctions.
Winehouse has created media buzz apart from her singing. Her distinctive style, most notably her former signature beehive hairstyle, has spawned imitators and been the muse for fashion designers, most notably Karl Lagerfeld. The singer’s (and her husband’s) struggle with drug and alcohol addiction, as well as self-destructive behaviour, have become regular tabloid news since 2007. The couple have also been plagued by legal troubles that have led to the cancellation of several tour dates.
The 2008 NME Awards demonstrated mixed feelings toward Winehouse. The singer was nominated for awards in the categories of “Villain of the Year”,”Worst Dressed Performer”,”Best Solo Artist”, and “Best Music DVD”.
Singer Natalie Cole who over the years has successfully battled her own substance-abuse problems said Winehouse should not have been given Grammy Awards because it sends a bad message to up and coming musicians by rewarding bad behavior. Cole remarked, “I think the girl is talented, gifted, but it’s not right for her to be able to have her cake and eat it too. She needs to get herself together.”
