The Biography of Amy Winehouse
Amy Winehouse, a British chanteuse, emerged as a prominent figure in the genres of jazz, soul, and reggae. She was hailed in the Guinness Book of Records as the first and only British songstress to garner five Grammy awards.
Childhood and Youth
Born in London in 1983 to parents with Russian Jewish roots, Amy Jade Winehouse grew up in a family deeply rooted in music, particularly jazz. Her father worked as a taxi driver and her mother as a pharmacist. Amy had an older brother, Alex, who was three years her senior. The family was fractured in 1993 when her parents divorced.



Musical Career
Amy Winehouse’s debut album "Frank" was released in the autumn of 2003, with Salaam Remi serving as the producer. The album was warmly received by critics, who favorably compared Amy to Macy Gray, Sarah Vaughan, and Billie Holiday. The debut was certified triple platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. However, Amy was dissatisfied with the result, claiming that she only considered 80% of the album to be truly hers and that the label included songs she didn’t like.

In November, a DVD titled "I Told You I Was Trouble", featuring a London concert and a documentary about the artist, was released.
At this time, the popularity of "Back to Black" was accelerating. The album earned Amy five Grammys in 2008.

In June 2011, the artist cancelled her European tour after a scandal in Belgrade. Amy appeared on stage in front of 20,000 spectators, spent more than an hour there, but never sang. She greeted the audience, spoke with musicians, stumbled, and when she started singing, she forgot the words and eventually left amid the audience’s boos.
Amy Winehouse’s Personal Life
In 2007, Amy married Blake Fielder-Civil. Their relationship was turbulent: the couple frequently consumed alcohol and drugs together, often resorting to physical violence even in public.
Death
On July 23, 2011, Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London apartment. The cause of death was not established until late 2011. Preliminary versions suggested drug overdose or suicide, but the police found no illicit drugs in the house. Amy’s father suggested that death might have resulted from a heart attack caused by alcohol detoxification.

Legacy
Fans and colleagues reacted passionately to the singer’s death. Bono of U2 dedicated the song "Stuck in a Moment You Can’t Get Out Of" to the artist at a concert on July 23, 2011. The first posthumous performances by Lily Allen, Boy George, and Jessie J were also in Amy’s honor.Amy Winehouse: latest news and articles
