Amy Winehouse has been admitted to the hospital once again, following a reportedly adverse reaction to medication. The singer, 24, was rushed to a London emergency room from her home Monday night. Her reps issued a statement saying, "Doctors have advised that [Winehouse] will be kept under observation overnight and is likely to be released tomorrow." Winehouse's hospital visit is the second in two months. In June, she was admitted to a clinic after collapsing. Her father said at the time that she was diagnosed with the early stages of emphysema, due to her smoking cigarettes and crack cocaine. Yet, soon after that previous hospital stay, the chanteuse went on to perform at the annual Glastonbury music festival and at Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday party. With any luck (and some good medical care), she'll recover as well this time around. — Anna Dimond

Cheers to The Secret Diary of a Call Girl for using Amy Winehouse's "You Know I'm No Good" as its opening theme. The saucy soul tune perfectly sets the tone for Showtime's naughty new U.K. import. This week's episode, in which Belle (Billie Piper) two-timed a client during an all-night date, also made witty use of Regina Spektor's "Fidelity" during a shower scene. If only Amy — who was seen throwing elbows at an apparently too-frisky fan over the weekend — were as levelheaded as the surprisingly stable Belle, maybe they wouldn't try to make her go to rehab. • Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine!

After being hospitalized last week following a collapse in her London home, Amy Winehouse has been diagnosed with emphysema, her father has confirmed. Mitch Winehouse told Britain's Daily Mail that the Grammy-winning soul singer's drug use and unhealthy lifestyle have caused the irreversible lung disease which makes it difficult for sufferers to breathe. "With smoking the crack cocaine and the cigarettes, her lungs are all gunked up. There are nodules around the chest and dark marks. She's got 70 percent lung capacity."Her father said doctors have warned Amy that if she continues her habits, she could be confined to a wheelchair and forced to wear a permanent oxygen mask. "If she goes back to smoking drugs it won't just ruin her voice, it will kill her," he said. He also took on the bad influences in her life, urging the drug dealers "supplying crack to Amy" to "take responsibility."The disease is in its early stages, and her father remains hopeful that perhaps this scare might clea...
