The Sun UK reported earlier that Amy Winehouse was coughing up blood and has a nasty chest infection. The doctors were worried because she's lost weight and hasn't had a appetite that she might have tuberculosis. She's been on various medications to wean her off of hard drugs and in case you still haven't noticed, she's still got some nasty facial scabs too. The latest is:

"She has a chest infection and she had a routine test for TB, which came back negative," Chris Goodman tells PEOPLE.

Goodman also denies a report - in U.K. tabloid The Sun - that she has been coughing up blood at the London clinic where she was taken after fainting earlier this week.

I really don't understand all the medical attention given to someone that clearly doesn't want to live. They should give her a whole bunch of smack and be done with it.

It's only freaking Monday and already Amy Winehouse is in the news this week because her dad took her to the hospital. Apparently she fainted or whatever.

"Amy was at home this afternoon when she briefly fainted," her rep said. "Fortunately, her manager's assistant was there to stop her falling."

"She quickly recovered and her father Mitch took her to hospital as a precaution," the rep explained. "Doctors are unsure of the cause of the incident and Amy is currently undergoing tests."

The 24-year-old Grammy winner "may be kept in [the hospital] overnight for observation," the rep added.

I like how they mention that doctors are unsure and she's currently undergoing tests. I may not be a Doctor of Medicine, but I have a PhD in Observation from D.U.H. University and I'll tell you straight up that I believe this whole matter is due to drugs. You might say stress, tiredness, working too hard, or even a brain tumor as the diagnosis for the fainting...but I'll simply go back to the root cause of drugs and I'll be right. No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job. I took the Hypothetical Oath after all.

Amy Winehouse talked to the press outside her home yesterday and said that even though she had a video leak out that had her singing racist slurs, she's not racist in the slightest.

The video, taken by Blake Fielder-Civil sometime before his arrest late last year and published Sunday by the News of the World, shows Winehouse and another woman sitting on a couch, singing a string of racial epithets to the tune of the children's song "Head, Shoulders Knees and Toes."

Fielder-Civil, holding the camera, is heard encouraging them to sing it, insisting afterward he "wasn't recording it ... I swear on my life." The video goes on to show Winehouse passed out on the couch.

Winehouse later stood outside her north London home, telling paparazzi that she was sorry, adding: "I don't want to play anything down, but I'm the least racist person going."

I'm surprised she didn't pull the "I have friends who are *insert race here*" excuse too. That one is usually a classic.

The video after the jump is such a treat. Amy Winehouse signs a song covering a bunch of racist stuff and also targets handicapped people and homosexuals. Awesome. The video was shot by her husband Blake Fielder-Civil and News of the World go a copy of it. They say:

In a sequence shot around May 2007—weeks after the couple eloped to wed in Miami—they are in a dingy crack den with Delboy-style bamboo patterned wallpaper.

Amy, 24, and a pal called Sarah giggle as they sing a string of racist lines set to the tune of kiddies' favourite ‘Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes'.

Blake pretends NOT to record the unfolding events and eggs them on, saying: "Can we have a singsong of it?"

Sarah is at first reluctant but soon warms to the action as Amy enthusiastically sings:

"Blacks, Pakis, Gooks and Nips, Gooks and Nips!

"And deaf and dumb and blind and gay!"

She repeats the first line over again and on the word "Nips" Amy pulls her eyes into slits then pushes her boobs up in a gesture to her nipples.

The girls' efforts are greeted warmly by Blake, who pledges: "Well done. I promise I wasn't recording it."

So checkout the how junkies seem to have fun after the jump when they're not busy sticking stuff in their veins. Good times.

Amy Winehouse did her first performance after all her recent wild antics and doing some rehab by hitting the stage at the Rio Festival in Lisbon. Surprise! It was still bad.

Failing to start off the night on the right foot, the troubled Brit showed up to the venue nearly an hour late and performed a short 55-minute set littered with the twitchy and wired uneasiness that overwhelmed her performances the past year pre-rehab.

Also overwhelming? Numerous cuts and scrapes on her arms, including a heavily wrapped right hand.

During the erratic set, Amy chatted with her band, played with her microphone wire, ate lozenges for her supposed "sore throat" and ran off and back on the stage. She also failed to resurface for an encore, leaving fans unamused.

Would anyone pay to see her perform? The cuts, the scrapes, the weird behavior...oh yeah, that's a good time. I could get just as much entertainment watching some junkie on the street and save myself the ticket cost.

Ahhhh, youth! If I had a dollar for every time my father said "Son, let's go see the skin diseased crack-ho down the street" I'd be a rich man. Amy Winehouse had a small visitor recently. A boy that wanted her autograph on a video game and some type of electric bongos. There's really no part in this story that makes any type of sense. I could say ommmfa gorba bliksommaflorg and it would mean about the same thing. Goofy!
