LONDON — “Rehab” singer Amy Winehouse was arrested in London on Wednesday on suspicion of drug possession, police and her spokesman said.
Winehouse’s spokesman, Chris Goodman, said the arrest is connected to a video that is alleged to show the troubled singer taking drugs at a party in her home in north London. The video was speculated to show Winehouse using crack.
London’s Metropolitan Police said a 24-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drugs possession. Goodman confirmed his client was in police custody.
“Amy Winehouse voluntarily attended a London police station today by appointment. She was arrested in order to be interviewed and is cooperating fully with inquiries,” Goodman said in a statement. “The interview relates to a video handed to police earlier this year,” he said.
Britain’s The Sun tabloid in January published still images from a video that it claimed showed Winehouse inhaling fumes from a small pipe. The images were said to have been filmed during a party at her London home.
The star was also shown apparently snorting ecstasy and cocaine and admitting to taking six Valium. Shortly after The Sun published still photographs of the video, Winehouse entered a London rehabilitation center.
