Mothers' favourite Paulo Nutini has been speaking-out about the media's reaction to Amy Winehouse's personal problems.
The singer-songwriter - who was set to support Winehouse on her currently cancelled tour - was scathing of the attention that the troubled star has been getting, saying: "The press are selling papers by printing pictures of her going in and out of rehab and collapsing". Nutini's outburst is the latest of a long list of musicians lending their support to Winehouse recently, with Beverley Knight, Kanye West and, as previously mentioned, even Natalie Imbruglia all coming out on Amy's side in recent weeks.
Amy's mother, meanwhile, has also offered her thoughts on the matter, saying that she is worried about her daughter's "addled brain", and that she has "a sickness but she cannot see it".
