Amy Winehouse will not be attending Sunday's Grammy Awards after all.
She has been denied a U.S. Visa, her rep said in a statement Thursday.
"Amy has been progressing well since entering a rehabilitation clinic two weeks ago and although disappointed with the decision has accepted the ruling and will be concentrating on her recovery," The Outside Organization, which counts the troubled retro-soul sensation among its clients, said in a statement obtained by the Associated Press.
She may not miss out on Sunday's awards show: A source close to the singer tells Us she may appear on the Grammys via satellite.
The singer, 24, checked into rehab last month after British tabloid The Sun released a video of her apparently using a crack pipe.

Sorry but good! I hope she gets better but I seriously doubt it. when the only reason you go to rehab is to avoid jail time then you are not going for the right reasons to begin with.

My name is lucy. I am a single girl from the US and believe that the Internet is a quite good place to meet new friends. I would like to meet a man who is out of my race for a serious interracial relationship; so anyone who may be interested can check out my photos on the famous site interracialloves.com, under the name of Lucyseeking. See you there

If so many people hate our country then leave us the F8ck alone and quit crying to our leaders to help you when your country gets in trouble. I would much rather seperate the North American hemi from all you others anyways.I think MY country would be much better off that way!

2:40: I was just in Hawaii last March for a family vacation and YES we thought it was awesome BUT I had to laugh at the comment you made because while there we noted there were more vacationer's from other countries, and not just one certain country, than from our own mainland.
Oh and BTW not that it matters but I was married in Jamaica.

I think that you need to keep your opinions to yourself. Your comments definately reflect your ignorance and idiocracy. I guess comments such as yours remind us all that there are still people out there with too much time on their hands and not enough brains in their head. Obviously, you don't have a clue about what you are talking about (third world currency? Come one, we know the economy isn't doing so well, but seriously!), and the comments from other people on this page don't give you any reason to be such a b*tch. Learn to be a little more open and accepting. You just hate and the world needs less people who hate- so do us a favour and shut your hole dumbA$$~!

I just read all these comments and have to say that Americans are and will continue to be the laughing stock in this world. You are arrogant for no reason, for the most part uneducated, unrefined, vulgar, most of you don't even own a passport because your idea of a good vacation is staying at the best western in Vegas or Disney World. When you go on spring break, you go to florida to get drunk and break the law, when you get married, you go to Hawaii, wow, an exotic destination, still within American soil and don't stop talking about it for months. You are all pitiful people and that is why the few reasons you had to feel proud are disappearing. You now have a third world currency, presidential elections where one candidate steals votes in the state where his brother is the governor, a president who gets appointed to do the same thing "daddy" did, just like in a banana republic, and you now have the bloody church involved in dictating politics. You deserve Bush, you deserve bleep Cheney and certainly 9/11.

427- yeah that's right!Why are you so surprised? She didn't have the proper paperwork! I was born here in the U.S and I can't even get a drivers license without some other form of I.D like a birth certificate. Why should it be any different for you? Do you deserve some special illegal priveleges that I don't know about? Yeah, you have it so hard. You can drive without a license or car insurance, and yes, you do get treated at hospitals or Doctors offices. Doctors will not turn you away if your life is in their hands.

656- so what is your point? You think that your hard earned money should go to pay for someone else's health care? You think that that money should go to someone's child who is not even legally here instead of your own child? Are you really that generous or are you just stupid? How do you think terrorists get into this country? Because of people like you that think everyone (including illegals) should be allowed in. You want us to all hold hands and sing "We are the world, we are the children!" It's because of people like you that 9/11 happened. You are solely responsible.

508- damn you're an idiot- just because I live in America doesn't mean that I have the money to pay for it. What part of illegal are you not understanding?? They all need to be deported back to their country. They're lucky that they get treated at all even if it is at a county hospital. Do you think that if I illegally went to another country to live that I would be treated? No!!I can't believe how stupid you are.

Oh that is crap it is easier for an illegal to get state provided care in my state than it is for most regular American citizens... hell all one of them has to do is get knocked up and well there they go free health care for the family cause the baby was concieved on American soil! Hell they get treated better and they tae all our jobs cause us Americans are greedy and want more money than they do because we don't live 8 to a house hold so we need more money!

You people should be ashamed!!!!So much hate,that is unbelievable.The US might be one of the greatest countries in the world,but it sure has a lot of uneducated people like the ones who think they are better than anyone else in the world...The US is not the only country dealing with immigration,but that doesn't mean that anybody else beside an US citizen is not worth living in this world.We are all human.And yes there are good and bad people,but please do not mix them up.I think that Amy has a problem,but I do not think she is evil.Look at yourself before judging others.Oh yeah,and go back to school,so you can learn about the rest of the world.

Look at it this way: considering the economy, consider yourself lucky that you can afford health care. If you don't have it, you can sit in the waiting room of a county hospital for up to 10 hours depending on the seriousness of your illness. What does an illegal immigrant have to do with that? Nothing. If he goes to the county hospital, he still has to pay. What are you complaining about, xenophobe?

427- I don't know where you have been! Let me give you an example so you can get educated with this..(no disrespect.) My dad is a retired police officer who in the beginning of his career could automatically call immigration and have illegals deported-no questions asked. They can't do that anymore because of political correctness. We don't want to "offend " anyone. Anyways, a friend of mine got into an accident with an illegal who didn't have any car insurance and the cop treated the illegal the same way he treated my friend, with respect and it turns out that my friend has to pay for all the damages to her car even though the guy with no insurance hit her. Do you think that this is fair? What should we do in a situation like that? Rub their back and say, "It's ok. I understand." Heck no! Hospitals are obligated to treat people by ethics even if they don;t have money- so yes, illegals are getting free health care.

I dont know where in the states you are, but there is no way that illegals get medical care for free. I became US citizen 8 yrs ago and my 11 year old daghter at the time did not have legal papers was not allowed to have medical insurance. What is talking about must be something else. Like OLD people who have not worked in this country not even a day get SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE and of course I dont agree with it. THAT's my money and your money, given to someone else.

Being refused a Visa could be the event that helps her realize the seriousness of her drug use. The US may be doing her a huge favor. Get better Amy.
