LONDON - British soul singer Amy Winehouse was taken from University hospital early this morning and rushed to an emergency party near her home in north London. Suffering from what her publicist called "accidental sobriety", Winhouse will reportedly stay at the party as long as necessary. Sources say the singer is expected to fully recover and return to the hospital within the next few days.
The scare began late on Wednesday night when Winehouse suddenly began speaking coherently and asking for food. "It was really scary." said her publicist, Chris Goodman. "We knew we had to get her out of that hospital and to a party, fast."
Medical experts speculate that Winehouse may have suffered an adverse reaction to a lack of medication. "It sounds like the classic symptoms of pharmaceutical deprivation." said Dr. Herbert Guernsey, Director of the Functional Narcotics Program at Howyflyl University. "You just can't abuse yourself like that - hopefully she'll learn something from this."
Fans of the singer will be relieved to hear that Winehouse later assaulted several people at the party. "That's when I knew she was out of the woods." said Goodman. "She's going to be OK."
