Ronson says Amy's psyched with Grammy nominations

Producer Mark Ronson says Amy Winehouse was delighted by her six Grammy nominations, though her US visa and personal troubles cast doubt on performing.

More awards, and producer Mark Ronson has been talking about Amy Winehouse's response to the news she had six nominations at the US's Grammy Awards. Ronson, who worked on the singer's 'Back To Black' album, of course, has told reporters: "I know she was psyched to be nominated; like, I know for her it means something to be acknowledged".

Word has it Winehouse is now determined to perform at the Grammy Awards event next February, despite the fact that [a] she recently cancelled all public appearances to try and sort our her personal problems and [b] some doubt whether she'll get a US visa because of that arrest for marijuana possession in Norway.

The tabs, of course, continue to publish photos of Amy doing slightly loopy things while she tries to get her life together and come to terms with husband Blake Fielder Civil's incarceration over those breaching the course of justice allegations. Commenting on Winehouse's personal woes, Ronson continued: "I worry about her like I worry about any friend that's obviously in a bit over their head as far as going through that adoration, all that stuff, so quickly. But she's smart and when I met her she'd just gone through a really tough time and she came right out of that and that's why we came out with the 'Rehab' record, so I think she's going to be fine".
