Britain’s Daily Mail reported today singer Amy Winehouse, 24, apologized for leaked footage of the Grammy Award winner singing an old children’s song with racial commentary and her husband Blake Fielder-Civil filming it. Winehouse and another woman in the footage get a laugh when she sings the lyrics to the old children’s song, “Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes†and flips the song into racist epithets, “Blacks, Pakis, Gooks and Nips, Gooks and Nips†…and deaf and dumb and blind and gay.†The husband pretended he wasn’t recording the footage, but in fact he really was, even going as far as to swear on his life and Winehouse’s he wasn’t filming her. The footage also showed drug paraphernalia on a table in the room where the song was sung. The footage was reportedly filmed after the couple’s marriage in May. The content of the video was first reported Sunday in the British tabloid News of the World. The paper reported that early this morning Winehouse invited some fans into her apartment, but not before holding what was a described as a surprise press conference. On the front step of her residence, Winehouse talked about the incident and described the irresponsibility of the way News of the World handled the footage. “I don’t want to play anything down, but I’m the least racist person going,†she said. “I think they [News of the World] should have starred out certain words.†The Daily Mail also reported that Winehouse was seen out with her father, Mitch, on Sunday in London’s Camden neighborhood, where she was talking to her fans as the leaked racist-video scandal was developing. “If people could see the real Amy…they would realize she is not in a constant pit of misery or permanently drug-addled,†her dad reportedly said. “She’s getting better, working hard, standing by her husband and desperate to have a family.†Racial Comments.... "......Distinguishing TRUTH from falsehood" 'Change your words into truth And then change that truth into LOVE, And maybe our children's grandchildren , And their great-grandchildren will tell.' |

Egungun, Egungun ni t'aiye ati jo! Ancestos, Ancestors come to earth and dance! "I'm sick of the war and the civilization that created it. Let's look to our dreams, and the magical; to the creations of the so-called primitive peoples for new inspirations." - Jaques Vache and Andre Breton "Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone." -John Maynard "You know that in our country there were even matriarchal societies where women were the most important element. On the Bijagos islands they had queens. They were not queens because they were the daughters of kings. They had queens succeeding queens. The religious leaders were women too..." -- Amilcar Cabral, Return to the Source, 1973 |

Yeah it's weird, I'm not the least bit offended either. It's just one of those things that make me shake my head at how dumb it is. ***************************************************** "There's no original evil left in the world.

She's a crackhead and we are to take any of her words or comments seriously?? She was probably high when she made the comments anyway.

Shouldn't somebody be counseling this crackhead that now is not the time to have a brain damaged crack baby? When we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard or welcomed. But when we are silent, we are still afraid. So it is better to speak Audre Lord |
