Amy's Christmas Bender




TROUBLED Amy Winehouse will check in to rehab — after a Christmas blow-out.
The singer, 24, who has a history of cocaine and heroin use, has vowed to get her life back on track in the New Year.
Her team are going ahead with plans to send her on a one-week rehab and detox treatment course in Israel, as revealed in The Sun last week. But the Back To Black star wants a festive season binge first — including a party at her new flat in Bow, East London.
A pal said Amy — nominated for six Grammies — is desperate to shine at the glittering Los Angeles awards ceremony on February 10.
He revealed: “Amy has agreed she will sort her life out in the New Year.
“She wants to give the performance of her life in LA. But she’s going to throw a party over Christmas — which will probably be a messy affair.” Amy — whose husband Blake, 25, is in jail awaiting trial for assault — suffered a drug overdose in August and briefly attended a rehab centre in Essex.



Baby Spice on Crutches



CROCKED EMMA BUNTON is in a race against time to be fit for the Spice Girls’ homecoming gigs.
Baby Spice, 31, hobbled into Britain on crutches yesterday after spraining her ankle on stage in Las Vegas.
Asked if she would be okay for tomorrow’s opening show at London’s O2, Emma said: “I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

“I actually fell over the other night on stage which was so embarrassing. I’m seeing David Beckham’s doctor and praying I’ll be fine.”

The Spice Girls flew from Los Angeles after finishing the US leg of their tour.
Emma’s injury was so bad she had round-the-clock medical care and used a wheelchair at LA Airport to avoid putting weight on the injured joint.
Emma, GERI HALLIWELL, MEL B, MEL C and VICTORIA BECKHAM were met at Heathrow airport by 200 winners of a Virgin Atlantic contest.
