Amy Winehouse visited husband Blake Fielder-Civil at London's Pentonville Prison awaiting trial on charges of grievous bodily harm and perverting the course of justice, and she was looking worryingly thin with large sores on her face and cuts on her arms.

Amy's spokesperson insists the Grammy-winning singer is suffering from the bacterial skin infection impetigo.

Meanwhile, Amy Winehouse has vowed to quit drugs following the sudden death of singer Corinne Bailey Rae's husband.

 

The troubled 'Rehab' singer has been shocked into seeking help after her saxophonist friend Jason Rae - who was once a backing musician for Amy with his band The Haggis Horns - was discovered dead from a suspected drugs overdose.

A friend told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "Amy sacked Jason because he was so out of it and now it's her own life that has spun out of control.

"The scenario is no different. Amy takes the same substances with which Jason plied himself. She says she can't believe this happened and that she is still alive - and she can't let this be her future.

"She sees it as a wake-up call that she must stop."
