Amy trashed

Amy Winehouse trashed her dressing room at the MTV European Music Awards this week.
The troubled singer caused thousands of pounds of damage to her room at the Olympiahalle before the ceremony began. She threw fruit, tables and chairs, cut an expensive rug to shreds, and tossed a plate of spaghetti bolognese at a wall.
Awards host Snoop Dogg came to visit Winehouse before the show, and was shocked when he spotted the state of her room.
A member of Snoop's entourage told the Sunday Mirror: "An hour and a half before the show, Snoop said he wanted to see Amy. When we got there, she was in a right state. Everyone, including her management, just stood there as she lobbed spaghetti up the walls. It went on for about five minutes - with her kicking the walls and throwing whatever she could get her hands on - even the tables and the chairs. Then she started cutting up the rug. Snoop was just standing there open-mouthed. He was pretty freaked out by it and didn't want to hang out with her after that."

Katona's Crusade

Kerry Katona yesterday revealed she is crusading to help addicts kick drugs – spurred on by her own cocaine hell.

The ex-Atomic Kitten, 27, is backing an online project launched by a pal she met in rehab.

The Recovery Network also offers support via a satellite TV channel.
Pregnant Kerry – star of the Iceland TV ads – will talk about her own battle on the network.

The mum of three said of her descent into drugs: “I should have said no. But I didn’t. I wasn’t strong enough.”

KY-Space?
Singer Kylie Minogue has launched her own social networking website for her fans to communicate with each other.

The KylieKonnect website enables fans to create personal profiles and upload images, as well as "keep up to date with all the very latest on Kylie".

The launch comes amid reports that the 39-year-old has shelved plans for a 2008 world tour to promote new album X.
