Amy Winehouse chooses career over children right now

Singer Amy Winehouse, 24, is interested in starting a family someday, just not right now. Amy is currently working on a new album due for release early next year. Amy explained:

I’m writing some new stuff and can’t wait to be back on tour. I would like to have children one day, but I’m concentrating on work just now.

Amy’s second album Back to Black, sold more than four million copies worldwide. She is hoping her new collection of songs will be just as successful. Amy married Blake Fielder-Civil, 24, in May 2007.

God bless ya, Amy, you talented chickadee you. She knows she needs time to get better and work on her career, so I say more power to her. She rocks, IMO.

Isnt she an addict? Spend time on you, and then think about children!!

Melissa on September 17th, 2007

Carrie, if I read the post correctly, that’s exactly what she intends to do!

She needs to put HERSELF before her career or children, because neither a career or children can handle her being an addict. Such a sad situation

Man, I hope she doesn’t have children now.

Who was telling her it was a good idea to have kids? When your family tells the public to boycott her album so as to strong-arm her into rehab, when she’s a self-professed cutter and self-mutilator, and when she was photographed walking the streets of London covered in blood from a fight with her husband who caught her cutting and doing drugs with a hooker, at what point is she mother material?
That is NOT to say anyone who has ever had drug or depression problem should never have children, but what a stupid thing to suggest that someone so notorious for having such serious problems should have kids simply because she’s in a committed relationship.

Off topic slightly, but does anyone know the name of the slippers she always wears? Horribly ratty but they look like the lightest, thinest pair of ballet flats I have EVER seen. Would kill for a pair So if ya know, please e-mail me or post something! Thank you!

Is she missing a tooth?

Kristina – Amy wears proper soft ballet shoes in satin (they also come in leather), probably made by Bloch or Freed. They’re quite easy to get from Dancewear shops or online in the UK, but don’t know about anywhere else. They’re the shoes most girls wear to learn ballet, before they go en pointe.

Maybe she should quit the drug and alcohol abuse before she gets pregnant.

I really like Amy’s music. I for one don’t even want to HEAR the word “children” come out of her mouth.lol. She’s got a L-O-N-G and winding road to travel before that. I really hope she gets healthy and can continue on in what should be a successful career.
