Winehouse Put On Drip In Hospital

Amy Winehouse has spent a night in hospital and was put on a drip, her father Mitch has confirmed. He said it was needed "to rehydrate her after she'd been vomiting" as part of her treatment for drug addiction, reports BBC.

Mr Winehouse said the singer, who was admitted to rehab last month, was moved to hospital because her clinic did not have sufficient medical facilities.

"Everything is going according to plan and she's perfectly OK," Mr Winehouse told BBC radio station 1Xtra, adding that she was now back in the rehab clinic.

The singer agreed to receive treatment after a film of her apparently smoking a crack pipe emerged last month.

He added it was still unclear if she would attend the Grammy Awards as she was still under "medical supervision". She has been nominated for six gongs at the ceremony, which is being held in Los Angeles on 10 February.

Amy is planning to appeal after being arrested and fined in Norway in October for possession of cannabis.

Boss Convinced Amy To Go To Rehab

A statement from her record label Universal Music said,"Amy entered the facility by mutual agreement and continues to receive the full support of all concerned."

Apparently Universal Music chief Lucian Grange convinced the troubled singer to check into rehab by showing the troubled singer a selection of press reports.

A source told The Sun, "Lucian got his international marketing manager to find and copy every piece of press from around the world. It took the guy two days."

"Lucian then laid everything out in his huge office and summoned Amy. He told her to have a good look, then tell him she hasn't got a problem with drugs. It did the trick."
