I just saw this in an interview with Pixie Lott in the Daily Mail:
"I like a party but I’d never get into a situation like the one Amy Winehouse found herself in.
If I even came close to that, my mum would take me and lock me up in her house. One of the dangers of a singer living quite dangerously is that their behaviour becomes part of the brand. The rock-star stereotype is someone who takes drugs and is off their face all the time. I don’t think you need to live that way to be a rock star. I’m not going to do anything that will damage my voice because my voice is my career and singing is my passion. I was singing in the cot and I’ll still be singing when they’re nailing down my coffin."
I find it utterly contemptuous. Amy achieved more than Pixie Lott can ever dream of.

She's a manufactured British pop "star".
I find it particularly hurtful because Amy's addiction was an illness. It would be like saying "I'll never get cancer". How does she know? Why can't people recognize that mental illness is something that can't magically be avoided?

I think Pixie has become a very unpleasant lately and do not control the words in some interviews. Well, I've never been a fan of her.

She comes across as rather immature and self centered in the rest of the interview also :

I've got a crush on Prince Harry
I don’t really have a type and I’m not usually drawn to ginger-haired men but I’ve always liked the idea of being a princess. I’d have to get to know him before accepting a marriage proposal but I wouldn’t rule it out. He’d have to make the first move, though – if he walked into this room now, I’d be too embarrassed to say hello.
I want to be the first woman to do a gig on the Moon.
How amazing would that be? I’d love to travel to the Moon, I’d love to stand on that planet and sing. I’d love the fact that the whole world would be watching me. Someone’s going to do it one day, so why not me? Maybe Richard Branson could sort it out for me.
Vanity is a sin
The biggest turn-off for me is people who think the world of themselves. Arrogance is not a sexy quality and it really gets on my nerves.

Maybe she is just a blabbermouth who doesn't realize that she is hurting other people's feelings, by suggesting that Amy's parents somehow failed because they didn't "lock her up in a house".If only things were that simple...
