Amy Winehouse Checks Into Rehab

Making a stop earlier in the day at Universal records, Amy Winehouse soon after headed to a rehab facility for much-needed treatment.

“Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors,” read a statement from Universal Music Group.

"She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction and prepare for her planned appearance at the Grammy Awards. She is nominated in an incredible six categories,” the press release added.

The decision to check in comes shortly after the release of a video by The Sun, which shows Amy “hitting a crack pipe and ingesting numerous other drugs.”

Telling further of Amy’s decision to seek help, Universal’s statement continues: “Amy entered the facility by mutual agreement and continues to receive the full support of all concerned. Amy is the most talented and important musical artist of her generation and has made huge strides on her road to recovery. Universal Music Group wants nothing more than to see her take the time she needs to come back to full health and fulfill her incredible potential with the label.”

“The label has always had the best interests of Amy at heart and has been guided by her family and doctors in the last few months as to the best direction to take. All concerned feel that Amy must put her health before all other considerations and will be by her side whenever and wherever they are needed.”
