Why are the British Consulate and Norwegian authorities even collaborating to get around a drug arrest so that Amy Winehouse can get a US work visa? What a disgrace. The message should be: do drugs, don't get a work visa to enter the USA. Amy Winehouse is not above the law - why should the USA allow her entry? Amy has admitted doing drugs - so she should be banned entry to do any tour in the USA - it is simply outrageous that a drug addict is allowed a work visa - Amy paid a fine, much like that Idaho Republican Senator who paid a fine and then tried to say it didn't count. It does count. How can Amy Winehouse stand with a straight face and say that she did not realize that paying a fine for drug possession was an admission of guilt?
