Amy Winehouse wins Five Grammys

Posted by Fara Kearnes on February 11, 2008 2:46 PM |

Amy WinehouseAmy Winehouse won five Grammys at the 50th annual awards show last night, including song and record of the year for her autobiographical hit 'Rehab'. "I can't believe I've won five awards," Winehouse said.

She sang "Rehab" and "You Know I'm No Good" via satellite link from London, then dedicated her record of the year trophy to her hometown, parents and jailed husband, "my Blake, my Blake incarcerated."

The 24-year-old singer recently entered a drug rehabilitation program and did not come to Los Angeles. US officials initially refused her a work visa to enter the country but by the time thy changed their minds, it was then too late for the Beehive to make the trip from England.

In other awards, Kanye West took home four trophies and Herbie Hancock won album of the year.

Hancock, whose "River: The Joni Letters" won album of the year, said after the show at the Staples Center that it was "immeasurable how surprised I am."

West may have won four trophies but after losing out once again in the album of the year category he'd made no secret of coveting, he skipped post-show interview rooms to instead pose for photos with his fiance and members of his entourage.

"I'm good," he said quietly, in response to questions about how he felt. It was a subdued echo of the exuberant call on his "Good Life," which won for rap song.

Bruce Springsteen took home three Grammys, including best rock song for "Radio Nowhere." Chaka Khan picked up two trophies, including one for best R&B album for "Funk This."
