Oh Lord, one minute, Amy Winehouse is surprising the shit out of everybody by giving an awesome performance and the next minute, she’s f-ing up so badly, she sounds like somebody’s drunk grandmother doing a half-assed karaoke performance. Her recent performance at the British MOBO’s last night saw her appearing only partially lucid, as she seemed to trip up on the lyrics to her own songs and miss the timing on a number of musical cues. It literally was as if she were performing to the beat of a completely different drum–one that only she could hear. A source that spoke with The Sun revealed that before the show, Amy was already acting the fool.

“In her dressing room she was really on edge, then flipped. She was screaming and chucking anything she could get her hands on at the people around her. She wasn’t in a good way.”

I think we should have known from her sloppy beehive that something was up. I have a theory that it’s where all her power is stored. She’s like Samson–if he had also been plagued with a raging heroin problem.
