Imagine Duffy downing a bottle of… erm… Gin and trying to impersonate Amy Winehouse. Weird? Maybe, but that’s exactly what New Zealand singer/songwriter Virginia Wigmore – or Gin – reminds me of. And mind you, that’s not half bad in my book.

Gin’s new album, Holy Smoke, is just released – and the album name is rather apt, I must say. It’s a terrific little piece of 60s tinged pop music. Here’s one of my favorites from it. Hope you like.

Thought that'd get your attention. The Only Good Rock Star Is a Dead Rock Star depicts the singer  surrounded by a puddle of blood
after being shot in the head by William S Burroughs, who sits nearby.



Marco Perego , the artist behind the piece, said it was intended as a “warning” for the star to change her lifestyle.

The piece of art, which is on sale for $100,000, is on display now at the Half Gallery on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.

Not like "out" in a closet sense of the word, but "out" of jail… Blake Fielder-Civil or "My Blaaaaaakey" as Winehouse prefers to refer to her husband and muse, was released from jail today after serving 12 months of a 27-month jail sentence.

It is believed that the singer’s husband is heading to rehab (no no no) clinic as part of the terms of his release….  Winehouse was at her Camdem home when her husband was released. It is unclear when the couple will be reunited. Let’s hope if they do they "Bee-hive" themselves…

We’ve posted the track itself earlier, now here is the video.
