apparently there’s a reason why amy winehouse doesn’t smile in her press photos. before now i just thought it was because she was trying to project a tough-girl image. you know, since her songs are often about strong women or refusing to go to rehab, etc.
as her songs also say, ms. winehouse has a taste for tanqueray, stella, and countless other alcoholic beverages. and it turns out her penchant for overdoing it in the booze department might have contributed to that mysterious close-mouthed look she’s been working. i knew she had taken a tumble or two, but apparently a few of her teeth have been offered up to the party gods as penance for bad behavior.
yes, amy’s missing a few. and it sure ain’t pretty…

i’m not sure when this was taken, but damn! if she hasn’t already taken care of this, she really needs to asap. it looks like she’s sporting one of those fake plastic sets of redneck chompers you can buy at tacky gift shops. definitely not hot.
