I think Wino went on to give the girl a bit of support/confidence?
Daily Mail, Sept 28th 2008: It was a high society ball attended by a host of VIPs in their most glamorous gowns. But somehow Amy Winehouse didn’t get the dress code quite right. Wearing scruffy animal print shorts, the troubled star looked shockingly skinny and ill as she performed atthe End Of Summer Ball in London’s Berkley Square last night. |

That whole slot seemed weird. The song was ridiculously repetitive and indeed downright boring. It was also performed rather poorly. I was rather hoping the point the young girl was on primetime television was that we were to witness an exceptional talent. Even making allowances for nerves, which shouldn't be necessary for someone booked for that slot, what we actually witnessed seemed to me to be at best a rather ordinary performance for a girl her age. I just don't get it.
It would also perhaps have been better had they not focussed on the presence of Amy Winehouse, who was just one of the backing vocalists and appeared the least able of them by far. |

BTW, 'tragic' wasn't a condemnation, it was sadness for someone who, if the papers are to be believed, has been rather chewed up and spat out by stardom. |

Amy Winehouse is in such a state - I find it quite sad.
Liked her god daughter's voice, although wasn't wowed, and LOVED Matt and Aliona. Could have done without seeing Winehouse struggling to stand up in the background. |

Strictly need to sort their celebrity guests out. Jamie Cullum was fantastic but the last two weeks have been dire.

Oh. Like many people, I'd heard AW was to be on SCD, I'd heard no mention at all that she'd be in the background.

All of it was quite embarassing IMO.
Like a famous version of Britains Got Talent, yet one of the crapper acts .

I absolutely adore AW's talent but she really shouldn't be wheeled out like this - its a freak show. What on earth is a 13 year old doing on SCD? She's a reasonable singer but she should be doing what normal 13 years old do and getting better not being paraded like this. It's a tough trade. Look what happened to her Godmother!
Didn't do Michael Jackson or Britney Spears any harm now did it?

I thought Dionne was brilliant, fabulous voice. Amy was a bit rubbish.

Oh, their bank accounts are full, no doubt. That's not a lot of good when you're dead or seeing pigs flying past you though, is it? |

What a comeback !! Not...
Her niece (or whatever relation to her she was) was fab but all Amy did was wave her arms around, probably thinking it was all about her. So cringe-worthy ! |

I'm pretty sure the girl who did the lead singing should have been doing the backing singing but Amy was too out of it to do the show properly and the girl stood in with Amy doing the backing vocals, which she could just about manage I suppose.
In fact, I'd put money on it. |

I've never liked her and tonight was just rubbish. Surely the BBC can get better acts? It made me think fondly of Andy Williams and I never thought I'd ever say that.

I agree. The girl's singing was okay but hardly worth showcasing on SCD!
Amy Winehouse seems to be trapped in the 1960s. I've never seen any women with a beehive hairstyle. I know she's had a rotten year or so - a few months ago she looked like death barely warmed up - she was dreadfully thin and hooked on drugs (the photos are on Google if you wanna be shocked by how bad she looked) but she does look healthier now and she has plans to release a new album next year.

The young girl only got on prime tv because of the winehouse link, she wants to have a good look at her god mother as a warning of the pitfalls that await in the music business. Amy and andy Williams the gruesome twosome of the music world.
