Amy Winehouse: Why Drug Overdoses Aren’t Especially Hilarious

Amy Winehouse has decided to speak out about last week’s drug overdose – a sure sign of recovery, because a few weeks ago Amy Winehouse would have probably just carved an explanation into her stomach with a broken mirror.

It’s been reported that Amy Winehouse had ingested a mixture of heroin, cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy and booze before she collapsed in a heap on Tuesday night and needed to get her stomach pump. And now, in one of the most revelatory interviews you’re ever likely to hear, Amy Winehouse has decided to tell the world that taking so many drugs that you have to be rushed to hospital before you die isn’t all that much fun in the big scheme of things. But what upsets Amy Winehouse most is that nobody was around with a microphone to record her retching and gagging as her stomach was pumped, as it was actually more tuneful than she’s been in six months and she could have used it for a B-side or something.
