amy winehouse's racist home video

I almost feel bad writing this. Almost. A crazy home video of Amy Winehouse has gone public... and man, it ain't pretty: Racist song, sex acts, drugs captured on new Amy Winehouse video. It's like watching an awful train wreck... involving a Grammy-winning singer and lots of crack cocaine.

The video, shot sometime last year, features the singer all cracked-out and enthusiastically singing, "Blacks, Pakis, Gooks and Nips, Gooks and Nips!"—a racist parody sung to the tune of "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes." It's just ugly. She repeats the first line over again, going so far as pulling her eyes back for emphasis. As if we didn't get the joke. That's racist!

You can see the video, and all of Amy Winehouse's nasty madness, at the link here: RACIST VIDEO THAT SHAMES ADDICT AMY. She's obviously high as a kite—not that it's any excuse. I'd give her more hell than this, but she's already kind of done it to herself, don't you think? It's not worth it. There was a time when I actually kind of dug her music. No more.
