Natasha Bedingfield has become an unlikely defender of
Amy Winehouse blaming an
intrusive media for causing Amy's problems.
She says that the media has given people an unhealthy obsession with celebrities' private lives.
"We've had a lot of artists taking drugs recently and people have been very excited by that. People have a certain nostalgia for the Jimi Hendrix days. And there is a circus mentality going on where people want to watch stars mess up their lives," she said.
"They are drug addicts - it's not right to point the finger and laugh at someone who is not well. People can be vultures.
"I am so glad Amy got a Grammy, because it's so good to have that support. The reason I've never done drugs is that I grew up with a lot of drug addicts."
She grew up with a lot of drug addicts? Is this the same squeaky clean, butter wouldn't melt Natasha that we know and, er, well, the one we know?
Maybe that explains why the Bedingfields are such crazy campers...
