Amy Winehouse tour manager quits over secondhand heroin smoke inhalation...

TDS Editors

This Is London:

Troubled Amy Winehouse has been dealt another blow today after her tour manager quit amid drugs accusations.

Thom Stone walked out on the singer just a day after she had a meltdown during a gig in Birmingham, swearing at fans and falling over on stage.

Mr Stone confirmed he had quit after it was said that he found working with Winehouse and her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil who is currently behind bars, was harming his health.

The last straw was when Amy, 24, and Blake were arrested with cannabis in Norway last month.

The Sun reported today that doctors found heroin in Mr Stone’s system after he inhaled it passively on Amy’s tour bus.

The tour manager is said to have produced a doctor’s note which revealed traces of the class A drug in his blood.

“He insisted to the management team that the only way that could have happened would have been through inhaling it from Blake and Amy. Thom just had it up to here. It was a nightmare job,” the paper reported.

If I could buy stock in Amy Weinhouse I would. She's nearing Kurt Cobain status each and every day. It's like buying ExxonMobile right before Katrina. Sad and true.

This video was posted on some trashy celebrity news site claiming that it looks like she's doing a bump of something. If you look closely, it really does look suspicious, as though she's taking a vial or whatever out of her beehive, sniffing, wiping her nose then re-doing the cap. Now if she's getting mashed on stage, it really is time to call it quits for a bit.

It's like watching a modern day Sid and Nancy, but here with loads more to lose as Amy is a talent. You could not make up the headlines that she's created this year, it's amazing, and it's a good thing she's taking time off, she needs it, otherwise I think she's done for. Great singer though, can you imagine her in 20 years if she cleans herself up now? She'd be a legend.
