Amy Winehouse's Racist Song
The latest awful thing druggie singer Amy Winehouse has done is to sing a racist song on camera, set to the tune of children's song "Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" but with racial slurs substituted for body parts. The British singer's racist ditty was recorded a year ago by husband Blake Fielder-Civil, who swore the videocamera wasn't on. Britain's News Of The World, which released the video, said Winehouse appeared to be in some sort of "dingy crack den." If some terrible bigoted crap like this has to come out, it might as well come out now — Winehouse is so far down the road of self-destruction that a disaster of this scale was considered pretty much inevitable, and the fact that she was goaded and high will help blunt the backlash. Video of the song, if you care to watch it, is after the jump.
