Mitch Winehouse is a king sized bumper pack cunt…
He’s now whining about a film about his late daughter… He’s not arsed really about how Amy is portrayed, he is upset about how the flim ‘taints’ himself and puts him in ‘a bad light’…
Which means it portrays old Mitch in a true light… He pushed his daughter into stage school, then got her to be a reluctant star (she loved singing, but she didn’t particularly want stardom), she gets a crippling drug habit, while daddy lives off her fame and its rewards.. The old leech leaves her to rot and finally die while the fucking Mitch Winehouse Band (I know Don’t laugh) is sucking it up in New York…
I was never a big Amy fan, but what a complete bastard her old man is… What a parasite… What a whopper of a cunt…

He’s a cunt, his daughter was a cunt, I knew his brother (her uncle) a while back, he wasn’t a cunt but he was a bit of a knob. I reckon Daddy was VERY close to Amy.

Amy was a cunt, I agree… But her old man probably made her what she was…

Knobheads who wish dead people a happy birthday are cunts…
I am aware that George Best would have been 69 years old today… But as much as I loved him as a footballer, what is the fucking point of these Twitter Twats ‘celebrating’ a birthday which he isn’t here for? I bet some bellend will make a special cake and post pictures of it on Twatter/Fuckbook/CuntTube…
He was a great player (probably the greatest), the booze killed him a decade ago, and proper Manc Reds were choked at the time and that’s that… All this other stuff is bollocks…

Mitch (quite rightly) is a cunt. Him and his wife both deserve that title. Amy was a little girl with a demanding personality that they decided not to address; just to ignore, and sweep it under the carpet. She could have easily been understood and cared for; appropriately. But, those 2 worthless humans; masquerading as parent’s, decided to ignore.
Amy’s ”Mother” on Amy telling her that she was Bulimic at the age of 15…
”Amy Winehouse learned those ugly rules of womanhood early, as footage from Asif Kapadia’s devastating, much-praised documentary Amy reveals. A teenaged Winehouse, snacking with her friends, laments between mouthfuls that she’s a pig and she cannot help herself. In a voiceover during this sequence, the singer’s mother Janis Winehouse recounts the moment a young Amy tells her mother about discovering a great new “diet”—eating and then vomiting—that allows her to eat without gaining weight.
The film avoids editorializing at this point or any other—the format, consistent with Kapadia’s earlier, also critically-acclaimed documentary, Senna, involves audio interviews and raw footage, but no commentary—yet no editorializing is required in order for a viewer to feel distraught—the next few sentences to come out of Janis’s mouth are enough. She muses that she essentially ignored the statement and forgot about it, thinking it was a silly teen girl activity that Amy would soon grow out of. She says that when Amy told her father, Mitch Winehouse, as well, he also dismissed it.
This casual dismissal—the first mention of Amy Winehouse’s eating disorder—is wrenching, and comes almost halfway into the film. For many viewers, this may be the first they have ever heard about Winehouse’s eating disorder. As well-documented as her struggles with alcohol and drug addiction were, the tiny little fact of her severe, untreated, decade-long eating disorder was rarely mentioned. When her thinness was mocked in the media, it was almost always with the implication that hey, addicts are always skinny little wrecks. If her puffy face was ever evaluated—and it was, because every aspect of her physical appearance was eviscerated during the height of the media’s obsession with her—it was through the lens of someone looking for signs of alcohol addiction (which commonly causes bloating in the face) and not signs of self-induced vomiting.
Winehouse’s struggles with substance abuse were highly public and often ridiculed and, as many others have noted, the film does an outstanding job of laying bare the damaging impact that media coverage and celebrity-worship can have on the real, flesh-and-blood artists. She is quite literally attacked by paparazzi during highly personal events such as visits to rehab and her husband’s prison stint.”

Thats sad I’m not a huge fan of her music but I like a few songs,she had a good voice when she wasn’t drunk. Having shitty parents makes the venerable act out do drugs, rebel etc. and whatever else. Her father looks like a egotistical prick apparently they set up a amy winehouse foundation I’m guessing its just a cash cow type scam who knows.

What a cunt. And straight away, after he badmouths his daughter, saying ”Why’d you make a comment like that? Why’d you gotta do that?” Amy replies, ”Cos I don’t want to be made a mug out of, dad.” Poor girl. Poor fucking girl. Ruined by that nasty, evil bastard. I have to say, Amy was a local girl. I was only ever once in the same pub as her when she was there, (The Hawley.) She drank in the same local pubs as I did. (I’m a different generation, and don’t frequent pubs quite the same as I used to.) I spoke with friends (an ex included) who drank with Amy. She was nothing but excellent company, and a sweet and lovely gal to be around. Just a lovely person who would not cause any trouble, lovely to others, and just wanted a good time. Hope that you are happy wherever you are, Amy. Sweet dreams.xx
