Amy Winehouse has moved on from embarrassing herself to embarrassing her friends and family as well. Amy has a 12-year-old goddaughter named Dionne Bromfield. The two are very close – Amy’s been spotted picking her up from school and taking her out and about on a number of occasions. Dionne wants to be a singer like Amy, who agreed to provide backup vocals for Dionne’s debut performance. Unfortunately, despite the kind gesture, Amy is still Amy, and she botched it big time – embarrassing not just herself but Dionne as well.
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 at the End of Summer Ball in London’s Berkeley Square last night.
The troubled star embarrassed herself by ruining her 12-year-old goddaughter’s debut singing performance and lashing out at a photographer before collapsing and sobbing: ‘Life can’t go on. I can’t do this any more.’ The singer was at the Berkeley Square Ball in Mayfair to provide backing vocals for her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield. But onlookers were shocked at how out of it Amy was, and the audience at the charity bash cringed as she grabbed and hugged Dionne as she tried to perform. We’re told: ‘It was tragic — she seemed totally wasted. She was jumping all over Dionne as the poor girl tried to sing for the crowd. Amy didn’t really sing a single note — it sounded more like she was grunting down the mic.’
At the end of the performance, Amy’s backing singer told the crowd: ‘Isn’t she great? She’s only 12-years-old!’ But Amy crowed: ‘She’s better than you — it doesn’t matter how old she is.’ She then roamed from table to table, demanding to meet famous people. Our spy said: ‘Amy was then asked to pose for the event’s official photographer, but flipped and tried to headbutt him. She looked like a woman possessed.’ She arrived at her Camden home at the end of the night with only one shoe and looking horribly dishevelled.

Amy really has a thing with headbutting people lately. I have to admit, no matter how poorly my life is going, I manage to keep my head rightfully attached to my neck in its proper position. And no matter how many photographers try to take my picture, I manage to not threaten them with bodily harm. But that’s just me.
Amy’s embarrassing performance shouldn’t come as any surprise. What is a shock is that Dionne’s family let Amy join in at all. Obviously her parents are good friends of Amy’s, but I’m sure they realize how erratic she is. That’s like inviting a hungry kangaroo to your fancy sit down dinner and then being surprised when he kicks out his feet and hops on the table. Or something equally sensible.
