Blake Field-Civil is having some bad feelings about his role in Amy Winehouse’s decline. Fielder-Civil says it’s his fault that Amy Winehouse got into drugs in the first place.

“I dragged Amy into it, and without me there is no doubt that she would never have gone down that road,” Fielder-Civil said to News of the World. “I ruined something beautiful.”

Blake was on a role during the interview, saying all of the right things. He not only takes responsibility for his role in Amy’s downfall, but he even says he’d be willing to sacrifice himself for her good.

“Now I have to let her go to save her life. I am not abandoning her. I am doing this out of love,” he said. “I have had to live with that for the past year that I have been in prison and I have got so much remorse.”

Blake recounted that when he met Amy, the only drug she’d indulged in was marijuana. It was with his tutelage that the Brit singer began to experiment with progressively worse drugs. Eventually, her entire career and her health were threatened by her drug use.

“It was heartbreaking seeing someone you love more than yourself, someone you would die for, someone you would kill for, on the floor shaking,” he said.

Amy has kept her distance from Blake since his release from jail. Blake says that’s his fault too.

“If it wasn’t for drugs, me and Amy would be so happy. Just without that in our lives — without crack and without heroin — Amy would be making beautiful music,” he said.

Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears lead the nominations for best act at this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards, it has been announced.

Spears - who is set to release her comeback album Circus in November - has been shortlisted for two MTV Europe Music Awards, including Album of the Year for Blackout and Act of 2008.

Troubled singer Winehouse has also been nominated for Act of 2008, alongside Rihanna, Coldplay, Britney Spears and Leona Lewis.

Other nominees include Kanye West and Beyonce Knowles for Best Urban, and Metallica and Linkin’ Park for the Rock Out award.

Beyonce is set to perform at the November 6 ceremony in Liverpool, England, to launch her new album.

The R’n'B star - who is married to rapper Jay-Z - is also up for the
Ultimate Urban prize.

Katy Perry’s I Kissed A Girl has made it into the Most Addictive Track list, alongside Kid Rock’s All Summer Long and Pink’s So What.

Troubled British singer Amy Winehouse missed what was to be the biggest event of her year - her 25th birthday.

Friends and family kept on waiting for the singer at the After Dark club in Soho, New York, where a surprise celebration had been arranged for her, reports dailymail.co.uk.

But the birthday girl never arrived and as the evening wore on, they had no choice but to carry the celebrations on behalf of her.

Winehouse has also been in the news recently when she caused shock waves after ordering 48 bottles of Jack Daniel’s at Bestival.

Fans fear that the singer, who is reportedly suffering from emphysema caused by smoking crack cocaine, is just days from death.

Her father, Mitch, said that her Bestival performance should be her last until she makes a recovery.

An ambulance was called to the 24-year-old singer’s house in Camden, north London and she was taken to the accident and emergency unit at University College Hospital at around 8.40pm.

Police were stationed outside her house as Winehouse was brought out in a wheelchair while wrapped in a blanket and given oxygen. Her father Mitch Winehouse was with her.

Her spokesman Chris Goodman said: “Amy Winehouse suffered a reaction to medication at home this evening and was taken to hospital.

“Doctors have advised that she will be kept under observation overnight and is likely to be released tomorrow.”

A spokeswoman for London Ambulance Service said: “We were called at approximately 8.40pm to an address in NW1 to reports of an adult female taken unwell.

“We sent an ambulance and a fast response car and the patient has been taken to hospital.”

A hospital spokesman said Ms Winehouse was in a stable condition and medics would make a decision whether to discharge her this morning.

The spokesman added they expected her to go home tomorrow if she has a comfortable night.

Mr Winehouse entered the hospital at around 11.50pm and asked reporters and photographers to leave the family alone.

When asked how serious his daughter’s condition was, he held up a bag of KFC and replied: “This is how serious it is.”

Winehouse, who is being treated for an addiction to crack cocaine, is also suffering from emphysema and was admitted to hospital after collapsing at her home last month.

Mr Winehouse said in June: “It’s in its early stages, but had it gone on for another month they painted a very vivid picture of her sitting there with a mask on her face struggling to breathe.

The doctors have told her if she goes back to smoking drugs it won’t just ruin her voice, it will kill her.”

Among the other celebrities and performers were Annie Lennox; Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith; Leona Lewis; Razorlight; British Prime Minister Gordon Brown; and Sugababes, the Mail reported. Members of Queen closed the show with “We Are the Champions.”
