Amy Winehouse's incredible X Factor blast: -
"Simon Cowell is the reason hairdressers haven't taken their pictures out of the window since the Sixties"
LOOPY Amy Winehouse launched into an outrageous rant about The X Factor's judges when a bemused fan rang her doorbell.
Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh were the main targets of the singer's bizarre late-night blast . . . over the INTERCOM at her home.
In a tinny rant out into the street, the dippy diva declared everything wrong in the world was probably Cowell's fault.
And ahe joked he was the reason hairdressers haven't changed advertising snaps in their windows since the 1960s.
You can hear a recording of Amy's comments by clicking on the video link above or scrolling below.
Fool
The 25-year-old then branded Louis a "fool" who talks "s**t" and accused him of having no personality.
Amy, 25, also amazingly claimed Geordie babe Cheryl Cole has the hots for her.
In the astonishing outburst in Camden, north London, Amy admitted she was sitting indoors in her UNDERWEAR eating COTTAGE PIE.
On Cowell, she rambled: "Let me say one thing that is pertinent and I won't swear on it either. It's got nothing to do with Simon Cowell, although everything that's wrong in the world probably does.
"I mean he's the reason that all them hairdressers haven't taken their pictures out of the window since the Sixties."
On Louis, Amy then raged: "What's the s**t that Louis the fool comes out with? "I don't know why, I don't like your hair, something was missing tonight, I don't know what it was.
"You don't know s**t. You know what was missing tonight? Your f*****g-do you know what was missing tonight-your personality, Louis. It's just a shame."
Asked about Cheryl, Amy adopted a north-east accent and gushed: "I love Cheryl, I love Cheryl. She fancies me I'm telling you."
Then she mocked diminutive judge Dannii Minogue for always standing up to be heard and ripped into the Aussie judge's "candyman sweet" description of contestant Alexandra Burke.
The Rehab star ranted: "It's like so embarrassing-like what does that even mean?
"Dannii always has to stand up, she always has to stand up. You ever noticed that?"
Amy also called contestant Ruth Lorenzo "fat t*ts".
And on Diana Vickers, she said: "You know the first time I saw her I thought it was like a half-time show and Avid Merrion was doing it and I thought it was a joke."
But she praised teenager Eoghan Quigg, whom she has even invited for a night out.
She said: "I rang him up and I was like, oh whatever. I bigged him up because he's supposed to be not confident."
On her on-off relationship with bad boy husband Blake Fielder-Civil, Amy admitted: "Things weren't going too well. We didn't get to have sex for a whole year." She insisted she's still in love with Blake, 26, who is being treated for his drug addiction at a Surrey rehab clinic.
But she laughed at their different musical tastes, saying: "My husband's favourite band is the Beautiful South. It's just so funny."
And she added: "One night very shortly after we met, I rolled a spliff. We were sitting in the kitchen and he's going through my CDs and he put on Lionel Ritchie's Hello. I started p*****g myself."

I think amy can be a good commentator,, she also talked about song writing and stuff,,, i think she have the finest artistic juices in her cracked brain....

I must admit that i prefer Diana Vickers bedhair to Amy Winehouse's mophead, and even Simon Cowells flat top is better.
Why are we entertaining the ramblings of this freak of nature, has she got a new record coming out, as its the same with the london gob aka Lily Allen who seems to court contravercy when her new record comes out.

AMY: Ever heard the saying 'Get you own house in order...' ? No, with a mouth and an intellect like yours, probably not sweetie.

Amy should be a judge on the X factor ! Can you imagine what great TV THAT would make ! It's all too polite and sensitive since Sharon left and Simon got 'nice'.
By Debbie. Posted November 21 2008 at 2:06 PM.
Who cares what Amy thinks of Simon, Louis and Dannii (sp), I'm sure they don't give a ****what Amy thinks.

LOL! I love Amy.
By ROFL. Posted November 16 2008 at 11:28 PM.
I have to admit, Amy is a wonderful person at her own time ( sober ).
I only like and listen to two of her songs, the rest is not quiet met my taste...
As for Xfactor,, the worse show in the planet. Where do these contestant come from ??
If you think you got what it take to be a singer then the last thing you want is to show up and get humiliated and loose your confidence, thats all the show is about.
I want to see those judges take part and see how good they are instead of drowning people's hopes.
By anthonio. Posted November 16 2008 at 10:16 PM.
amy should not be aloud to sing anymore or even shown in mags and paper, she is on drugs, wot is she showning our children, i am a pop star taking drugs and it is all right ,wat a mess she is.
By lisa robinson. Posted November 16 2008 at 8:48 PM.
who is she to stand judgement on other people. i could understand it if she has an ounce of talent, but she hasn't.
she cannot sing, she looks awful, and the only thing alot of the public recognize her for is for being a junkie.
another wannabe that will soon be forgotton about. role on the day!!!
By sandy. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:11 PM.
Amy.
Why is anyone listening to her?
There will always be odd-balls who rant and rave to get some more column inches.
Had you not noticed?
She's been out of the news of late.
Solution: rant & rave = column inches.
If you, for a second, take this freak of nature seriously, then more-fool you.
If you think she is at all relevant then more-fool you.

Although Amy has her true problems,she is also entitled to her opinions and rightly so,having read them as you have you have to admit she ispretty spot on...and you would agree if only it wasnt spoken by her....am i wrong?????
By allan connel mcgauley. Posted November 16 2008 at 5:58 PM.
Hahaha Who gives a flying fourpence what
Amy Winehouse thinks, at least they all turn up for the show not like you who can’t be bothered.
Think on Amy before you start calling other people
By AnneCooper. Posted November 16 2008 at 4:29 PM.
Who is she to criticise anyone's hair??? She's the most overrated singer in the last 100 years. She wants to take a good look and listen to herself-she's a hopeless wreck-let's hope she fades very quickly into obscurity where she always belonged!!!
By Ros. Posted November 16 2008 at 4:53 PM.
I became interested in Amy this summer-only five months ago. During these five months she has dilapidated beyond belief. I am the same age as her mother and grew up in West London. I was part of the skinhead/reggae/tamla scene. We used to go to Shepherds Bush market and dance reggae with black kids in1970. And I tell you, those kids were far tougher and far sassier than Amy will ever be.
I am an astrologer and had a look at her astrological chart. She has an excellent talent for detail which comes out in her song writing. She also has exceptional tendencies to overindulge and become an oafish clown. If she had any humility she could turn her talents round to help others. There is also a strong autocratic streak coupled with exceptional greed and arrogance. Do you recognise it?
I became interested in her because she's a Virgo like Michael Jackson-recognise any similarities?
She seems to think she's some kind of icon for her age group. To my mind she's just plain repressed and should have gone through all this when she was fifteen.
Nowadays you're on the scrap heap at twenty five and Amy certainly seems to be there. Good riddance to a greedy, selfish, spoiled, dirty, foul mouthed, ignorant old slag.
She's very keen on ctiticising others. Roll on the next spoiled superbrat celeb. Age comes to us all if we're lucky enough. Maybe she just doesn't deserve to get there.

Amy is fantastic. She shoould have her own TV show.
By Sabrina. Posted November 16 2008 at 3:27 PM.
Sorry to say that I agree that amy winehouse has got talent when she is in a recording studio however when she sings live and all them kids look at her she does not give a damn she is a waste of air time and people money I do like her music but have now decided that I cant even stand looking at her in the papers there is much more appalling things in this world but yet newspaper s fill the gaps with Amy whingehouse and her drug addiction
she has no respect for her parents or fans and as for Simon Cowell well I am sure he is laughing his socks off as he is not the one recently being pictured half drugged out of his head looking like a tramp I admire Cowell and Im waiting for the real person Carol Malone to put Amy right

Amy put your bloody self together! We love you mate....DO IT FOR US BRITS, FOR OUR CHILDREN AND GREAT GRAND CHILDREN'S, FOR THE FUTUE OF THIS COUNTRY. You are an AMAZING talent, one of the best this country has ever seen, DON'T WASTE IT! Life is way too short! Believe in yourself! Make it happen!

By insertnamehere. Posted November 16 2008 at 1:32 PM.
Amy what have you done to yourself you are starting to look like a really awful edwina currie.
You need to sort yourself out because your are loosing your fanbase so fast.
When I look at your old videos on U tube when you were starting out your looked beautiful and so talented .Now your a complete mess . I no longer listen to your music and I was one of your earliest fans.
What a complete waste of talent .
By vonnier. Posted November 16 2008 at 1:24 PM.
She demonstrates unconventional, creative thought processes. Talent. I do believe great minds struggle with the concept of this world and use drugs as an escape. I hope she cleans her image as i'm sure she coiuld be very influential in a positive way!

She's just a non-entity.
By Davina. Posted November 16 2008 at 12:52 PM.
I really hate attention seeking Simon Cowell so i do agree with the comments of Amy WHAT
IS THAT HAIRCUT OF HIS ALL ABOUT? X FACTOR SHOULD BE OFF OUR SCREENS AND NEVER RETURN IT'S FOR THE UNTALENTED!!!!!!!!!! Well done Amy say it as it is you have real talent what a shame you are a SMACK HEAD!!!!!! but i would buy you a drink in a bar while i would leave Simon standing alone in his HIGH WAISTED TROUSERS AND HIS S**T HAIRCUT!!!!!!
By stell. Posted November 16 2008 at 12:55 PM.
Amy you really need to sort your self out, a good bath wouldnt go amiss. Nice songs....shame about the face.
By Steve Burn. Posted November 16 2008 at 12:25 PM.
I am sure Simon Cowell is REALLY upset by her comments about him. He has heard worse. The worrying thing is Amy Winehouse is honing in on a young-man who is not old enough and informed enough to realise the lifestyle Amy Winehouse has chosen for herself and can not help, but be enamored by the celebrity-status that is afforded to her. Simon Cowell needs to step in and take control here. As for the rude comments about the other female contestants, I think this is said out of pure jealousy at them achieving maybe what she could, but at the moment, is destroying within herself stopping her from doing so!

She is wasting her talent for something only she knows why. I think the British-Public have got 'compassion-fatigue' with regards to Amy Winehouse. Get some help before you become another 'Rock-Star' statistic!!!
By John. Posted November 16 2008 at 11:15 AM.
She was once the best singer/songwriter in this country, she is now a very sad junkie, who is going to end up in a very early grave.

Even with all her drug taking she's still sharp. I think she's hilarious
By Sonja . Posted November 16 2008 at 10:30 AM.
SHE NEEDS TO LOOK AT HERSELF BEFORE SHE CRITISES LIONEL RICHES AT LEAST HE CAN SING!! AMY WINEHOUSE'S DAYS ARE NUMBER AS A SO CALLED SINGER!!!!!!
By Michele from Australia.. Posted November 16 2008 at 10:14 AM.
Nothing she said was untrue, especially about the talentless leech Walsh.
Go Amy - great to hear her sense of humour coming out. The only thing I'd be worried about is she seems to know too much about X factor while claiming to not watch it. (uh oh)
By Trish. Posted November 16 2008 at 10:12 AM.
Amy was quite a pretty girl before she started taking drugs, just shows you what it can do to you, she seems quite intelligent but the drugs have messed her up something awful. Hope she gets better.
By funkyfresh. Posted November 16 2008 at 10:10 AM.
Not much to choose between these two - but this weirdo Winehouse woman wins the contest for being the pain in the butt of the year.
By ROGER. Posted November 16 2008 at 10:06 AM.
Well at least we know what she does on a Saturday night now - stays in and watches TV!
By Katy. Posted November 16 2008 at 9:58 AM.
How cool is Amy??? I’m just amazed at how witty she is. When I read her comments I was laughing until the tears rolled down my cheeks. It was really nice of her to ring that young guy up because she had heard he had no confidence. She has a heart of gold, get her on the X-Factor as a celebrity judge; I’d even be prepared to watch it then.
By Kerry Burgess. Posted November 16 2008 at 9:40 AM.
I think Amy Whinehouse needs to have a good long look in the mirror, she also wants to try engaging the brain before opening her mouth.
By Lee. Posted November 16 2008 at 9:38 AM.

By pk. Posted November 16 2008 at 8:12 AM.
I'm not a fan of amy, But her statement is very true these so called judges have the ability to make money. They criticise people who do have talent and the uproar created keeps them in the limelight. What you expect from reality television the judges are more important than the people taking part.
By pfd. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:59 AM.
Obviously she hasn't looked in the mirror lately.
What a waste of talent.
By Paul Kelly. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:09 AM.
she may well be a messed up junkie but i have to agree with her on the x factor and esp the two bimbo presenters with no talent!!
By knoxy. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:08 AM.
She has a good point and the difference between her type of talent and the so called 'talent' on Cowell's shows is striking. Amy Winehouse represents raw talent that emerges naturally while Cowell and his crew are incative of a more clinical, nurtured manufactured commercial popular music. Winehouse coud be far better than she is right now while Cowell's 'winners' are as good as they will ever get.
By Adrian Bell. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:05 AM.
I think her comments are amazing and true! I'm her biggest fan and camp outside her house 6 days a week, the other day I go home to change my pants!
Amy and Blake for the White House!
By Boshboy. Posted November 16 2008 at 7:03 AM.
What's the problem Amy... the Ritchie CD was yours to begin with.
I used to think this girl would snap out of it. But at this point she is utterly unable to fix herself. And amazingly everyone around her is afraid to try, or what.
Seeing Blake again sounds like, erm, not a quality idea.
By janejane. Posted November 16 2008 at 5:29 AM.
Amy, Amy, Amy, keep bubbling sis! But guess what, do not waste your time watching that horrifying **** - create baby, create, do look at the real life Max Headroom or his proteges they all end up with big ol white fake teeth man - what is going on with this country -thank goodness I only see Cowell, Walsh and the glamorous giltty babes in the papers I couldn't bear to hear them speak. That would make me sick, especially when I'm eating...keep creating Amy it may encourage more white people to fight like you babe
By bubbler. Posted November 16 2008 at 4:37 AM.
I LOVE AMY she has got a personality and sounds like a laugh but its quite clear that whatever she's on is affecting her abillity to come across clear because she sounds very in-articulate and cant string a decent conversation
By fiona. Posted November 16 2008 at 4:28 AM.
When Amy Winehouse criticizes other entertainers, she's actually afraid that one day they'll all leave her in the dust.
By SickFish. Posted November 16 2008 at 3:08 AM.
I agree with the Diana Vickers comment. It sounds awful, strained and put on. In fact, I think Avid could do better.
As for Cheryl Cole fancying her, well, unless Cheryl is short sighted and does'nt mind needle holes...I doubt it!
By kenny. Posted November 16 2008 at 3:09 AM.
Well shame on the person egging her on this girl has lost the plot big time if she thinks the X factor judges are an embarresment then she is certainly deranged because she could take first prize for embarrasment.
Listening to her made me cringe she is so not cool unlike her past music which was totally cool.
Its hard to imagine that she will ever recover although I truly hope she does.
By SAH. Posted November 16 2008 at 2:42 AM.
Amy Winehouse proves that drugs can make a bright person sound like a friggin' idiot.
By 8 lb. Brain. Posted November 16 2008 at 2:15 AM.
How pathetic. At what point does someone close to her say you have serious problems. The girl has everything and yet all she does is self destruct. There are so many talented people out there that never get the opportunities she has and yet each time she messes up. She is so self absorbed. How about she volunteers and helps people out as opposed to this self destructive behaviour.
By Siobhain. Posted November 16 2008 at 2:04 AM.
YEAHHHHHHHHHH Amy! So spot on! Just get your act together and give us another fantastic album! Love yah babe!
By Mazziemo. Posted November 16 2008 at 2:09 AM.
God she's entertaining isn't she!? Loved the Avid Merrion gag but could it be because she knows that very soon Diana may be snapping at her heels? As for Ruth, she's all woman and maybe Amy feels threatened by that but for a very thin woman she's got quite a pair herself. Totally agree with her about Louis. And let's not mention Simon's hair. Good to have her back to her poisonous self though instead of being too stoned to have an opinion on anything. She really should leave Cheryl alone though. In a scrap between the 2 I'm backing Cheryl!
