    Amy Winehouse Condition Overblown

    Tue, 24 Jun 2008 17:10:46

    Her father was wrong, apparently


    Amy Winehouse's rep has cleared up reports that the singer is suffering from emphysema.

    "She is not diagnosed with full-blown emphysema, but instead has early signs of what could lead to emphysema," Tracey Miller told The Associated Press. Miller added that Winehouse's father, Mitch, had told the media about her condition "out of his concern for her."

    Winehouse is currently rehearsing for two performances this weekend: the Nelson Mandela tribute concert on Friday, June 26, and a Glastonbury appearance on Saturday.
