Amy Winehouse is a cover girl

It seems everywhere Amy Winehouse goes, trouble follows. Guests at the opening of posh fashion house Fendi’s new flagship Paris store were probably expecting handbags, but not handbags at dawn.
The Rehab singer, sporting a nasty bump to the side of her face, was paid a whopping $1000k to perform at the bash. She had attempted to cover the lump with loads of make-up but told the well-heeled guests it was “so big I can see it out of my eye.
Do you get mumps in France?”
The event ended in an almighty scrap among some of the guests as they jockeyed for position to hear her sing. A source at Paris Fashion Week said: “It was a complete fiasco. It got nasty and people were breaking bottles. Organisers had to lock the crowd in without any drinks while she performed.”
The Back To Black singer, winner of NME’s Worst Dressed gong last week, added: “Forgive my ignorance, I don’t know a thing about fashion.”
Amy also revealed during the 40-minute set that she would like to be booked for more gigs, even Bar Mitzvahs and weddings. But she added: “Well maybe not a wedding. My music’s a little too heartbreak.”
Then she got her beehive tangled in her guitar strap. I hate it when that happens.
