amy winehouse

Tonight's case study is Amy Winehouse. Met her (and her spotty skin) at the Ivor Novello awards at The Grosvenor Hotel on Park Lane in London.
The first thing I spotted was her massive beehive. That girl has a unique look.
But what made her really stand out was her massive entourage. I think there must have been about 4 people around her at all times plus her dad Mitch and mum Janis.
So lessons for everyone from tonight - image and entourages are vital if you wanna be famous. It's not hard to groom yourself differently. Why not try changing your hair parting? Or wearing loud shirts?
If you havent got an entourage yet, then a simple trick is to get some friends to be your crew and call your name wherever you go.
And lessons for me from tonight - celebrities are wiser than you think. I never imagined Amy Winehouse would read my column, but when I introduced myself she told me things that made me think she knew who I was. And she was quite friendly about it, giving me a message for her man Blake in prison.
