Potent Quotables: Amy Dives Into Cliche

"I am a legend. I want to take drugs."--Amy Winehouse

The embattled singer was allegedly overheard screaming this shortly before she was arrested for headbutting a man on the street. Yikes.

ok well i do music for a living and what has happened is she is spoiled and dose not deserve fame no matter how nice her songs are people are at war some were, so that means to attack a man in the streets means u want to help out over seas in my opinion. me and my family and as many people i can tell will not support her because she needs to be stripped to understand. Madonna is a legend and many others we know but not u misses wine house, your about um 100 million albums sold away and respect from every body in entertainment to even say such a thing. you are not the shit and neither am i. myspace.com/legaceymusic

HA HA HA! Now that is the funniest damn thing I have EVER heard in my life!!! LEGEND!!! ROTFLMAO!!!

Yes Amy your a legend alright, In your own sick mind!!
Get a LIFE WOMAN! Get off the drugs, put on some clothes, gain 10 lbs, actually use the talent for music you've been given and then, only then and maybe in 10 years you might be noted as a memorable artist for your music not your stupidity!

Me-Hoeat 5-15-2008

So let me guess
its all her fault that shes a drug addict
and the world still likes her music...
If a motha fukka wants to do drugs and slowly kill themselves
why is that such a big fukkin deal. why can't people allow other people to kill themselves when where and how they want if they want to....

DON'T DO DRUG'S OR YOU WILL DIE! So what dose that really say, if a person don't do drugs they will live forever?

Memeat 5-16-2008

Ambie -- Best post here so far..you said it all. I haven't even listened to Winehouse's music, though my daughter says she is throwing a lot of talent away, so I'll believe her. Belushi, Joplin, and many others were "legends" too and where are they now?? (Though the one I miss the most is not a singer at all - he starred in Tommy Boy and his name escapes me now however he, too, was a "legend.) Drugs do not know fame or any class of people. They kill - period. Ms. Winehouse has got to get a grip or waste, according to many others, a God given talent that we are not all so blessed with. It may help to pray for her instead of solely bash her. Just a thought.

NOT A BIG AMY FAN MYSELF. BUT I GOT TO ADMIT, AFTER I HEARD HER SING, I THOUGHT SHE SOUNDED PRETTY GOOD IN A BLUESY KINDA WAY. I MYSELF WOULDN'T BUY HER MUSIC, BUT IF I HAD THE CHANCE TO SEE HER PERFORM,FOR FREE OF COURSE, I WOULD PROBABLY GO SEE HER. I ACTUALLY KINDA HATE TO ADMIT TO THIS, I MEAN I'M A TOTAL OLD 80'S HAIR BAND MUSIC LOVER, SO THIS WAS VERY HARD FOR ME TO RIGHT. GEEESH... HOPE NONE OF MY OLD HEAD-BANGER FRIENDS ARE READING THIS LOLOL... BUT SHE IS A GOOD SINGER WITH TALENT, HATE TO SEE HER BEING SUCH A WASTE DOING ALL THE DRUGS AND ACTS VERY PROUD OF IT. BEEN THERE---DONE THAT. NOW I'M SOOOO OVER IT AND HATED THAT I WASTED SO MUCH TIME PARTYNG SO MUCH. BUT IT WAS FUN... JUST WISH I COULD REMEMBER MOST OF IT!!!!

koopaat 5-18-2008

amy needs to keep her drug addict ass out the news and realize her music is garbage and only dope heads and crack addicts can understand her. so if you like her music most likely you do crack, cocaine, heroine, and meth. so reply if you likebut at least admit to the world that you are a drug addict. she is no legend cause in 5 years people wont remember her name.

She sounds great, but I have to admit I'm somewhat repulsed everytime I see her. She looks disgusting like she's dirty and smelly. Eww. She looks like one of those bagladies all (poorly) made up and talking nonsense to themselves in the streets. They probably shout things like 'I'm a legend! I want to do drugs!" Sorry Amy, all your talent is going to waste. People will stop listening and you'll be another one-hit wonder whose name only comes up in trivia.

More trash - this time it's white, talented, and rich. Don't support her habit, and DON'T buy her music. You won't die without this bitch's music, but if you keep supporting her habit she'll surely die.

Why does this beeee-otch get so much publicity she is in the news all the time yet I and most people I know have never even heard one of her songs. I guess if you are outrageous enough you can get press even though you have no talent or any hit songs.

She does NOT have a purty mouth. Gawd. I bet she could eat a peach through a fence. And in today's weight-obsessed world, it's pretty sad when people are saying she needs to gain 10 lbs. Yowzah, this chick has some serious problems.

Another talented person who has turned into a drug addict full of herself and will most likely end up like Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix.

"I want to take drugs." .. Can't think of any reason she shouldn't.
