Article Amy Winehouse turned down a duet with Eminem

skitershady · 04-11-2009, 05:48 PM

The Real Slim Shady rapper, whose new track We Made You hits shops on Monday, asked Amy to feature on his next album Relapse, out next month.

He reckoned the Rehab singer could help him repeat the success of his superhit Stan, which topped charts around the world in 2000.

Key to its brilliance was the contribution of Amy’s fellow Londoner DIDO, whose song Thank You provided its backbone.

Eminem wanted Amy to work similar magic for him — but the beehived one had other ideas.

My source says: “Amy was flattered by the offer. She loves hip-hop and is a big fan of Eminem. But she didn’t feel it was the right thing to do at the present time.”

Another insider adds: “Eminem has followed Amy’s career closely. They have both had drug addiction issues and he empathises with her and hoped to feature her on Relapse.

“His idea was to make a track as magical as Stan. But unfortunately Amy declined.

“He understands that recently she hasn’t been in a state to focus on music because of her tumultuous private life but he hopes they will get together on a future project.”

He raps about her drug troubles: “Amy, rehab never looked so good. I can’t wait, I’m going back.”

And as I told you, in the video for the track he even dresses up as Amy’s junkie husband BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL, wearing a lanky wig to leer with an Amy lookalike.

The real Amy is now in St Lucia to work on her third album.

Yesterday she was enjoying some calm and soothing time at the beach with, er, a book called Grindhouse, by movie directors QUENTIN TARANTINO and ROBERT RODRIGUEZ, about their ultra-violent flicks Death Proof and Planet Terror.

I’ve got to hand it to the girl — snubbing the huge global star that is Eminem takes some nerve.

But I do hope Em and Amy team up — it would be some double act

Yeah..
He said it a few months ago..

robert henry · 04-11-2009, 07:42 PM

Damn, it's a shame cause Amy has a great voice but the bitch is dumb, she only works with drugs

This could've been her "comeback" but nooo, the silly cow prefered getting beaten up by Blake.

You fail atlife Amy.

I truly can't wait for a song with Elton John + I hope Eminem does a feature for that song he wanted Amy on.

Your an idiot for saying that, Seriously you are. I dont know what you talking about but the only makeup he's had lately like you said was just in the "We Made You" video and he only did it for the video not like hes been out in public with makeup on and the way you typed it out made it seem like he really does.

I remember Game did a remix of her tune Mercy which was aite, so that could b pretty cool.
Itd hav 2 b an old skool, like soul inspired beat though for it to suit Duffys voice.

Oh so she isn't in a mood for music but she is recording her 3rd album?

I'm not mad at her for not recording that song (well part of me is, but) I'm also mad at her for being an idiot and wasting everything she has.

*50*CENT*WIFE* · 04-12-2009, 08:07 PM

Oh well maybe next time lol..
Im sure his album still going to be hott if she on it or not :)

Tha Unit On Top · 04-12-2009, 08:47 PM

Well with his drug problems, his album is called Relapse, she is a crack head, and her hit record was Rehab, I think they probably could have made something really really dope together, of course about drugs, so not sure it would have been a big single, but an overall great song it probably would have been. She is crazy for turning this down, this could have gotten her right back in the spotlight and huge again, but maybe she is just too cracked out to come back.
