British tabloid The Sun is showing a controversial 2-minute video clip of troubled singer Amy Winehouse allegedly smoking a crack pipe in her London home, according to MTV.

Originally a 19-minute long video, it was edited down to highlight Winehouse’s conversation with someone on a mobile phone and in a bedroom where she lit and inhaled a suspected crack pipe.

Tragically, this Grammy-nominated singer is no stranger to controversies and drug-related issues. Recently, she has cancelled her series of shows to seek drug addiction treatment. She was also caught in a Norwegian city for possession of marijuana found in her hotel. The list goes from on arrests related to bar fights to photos showing her with the residue of white powder on her nose.

Too bad Winehouse does not have someone as pathetic as Britney Spears’ Chris Crocker to send a shout out to the world – LEAVE AMY ALONE!
