ANGRY DOHERTY HITS OUT AT WINEHOUSE'S CRITICS

Troubled musician and drug addict PETE DOHERTY has condemned commentators who have criticised AMY WINEHOUSE for her partying lifestyle. After her meteoric rise in the music world over the last year, Winehouse has cancelled all of her August (07) gigs to focus on "health issues" after collapsing following three days of hard partying. Speaking at England's V Festival on Saturday (18Aug07), Doherty said, "She has been having a hard time to the point where she has 10-year-old girls saying, 'Oh, what is it like smoking heroin?' It is so sick."
