SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

Winehouse checked into an Essex, England, clinic at the urging of her record label after a video image

of her allegedly smoking crack cocaine was published in a British tabloid newspaper.

The Daily Telegraph said Winehouse recently admitted she didn't stay at the clinic long and ingested drugs throughout her stay there.

"I've never been to rehab, I mean, done it properly. I'm young, and I'm in love, and I get my nuts off sometimes. But it's never been like, 'Amy, get your life together,'" the 24-year-old singer told Rolling Stone magazine.

The Grammy Award-winning recording artist also candidly discussed what it was like to have her husband Blake Fielder-Civil away in prison on assault charges.

"To be honest, my husband's away, I'm bored, I'm young. I felt like there was nothing to live for. It's just been a low ebb", she said.
