Amy Winehouse has likened her love life to a soap opera.

The 23-year-old singer, who has developed a reputation for heavy drinking, admits is not easy being her other half because she is always in the media spotlight.

She told Q magazine: "Going out with me is like 'EastEnders', 'Coronation Street' and 'Hollyoaks' all rolled into one."

'Rehab' singer Amy, who recently a split from her chef boyfriend Alex Claire, says she would often wake up next to him oblivious to her drunken behaviour the night before.

She said: "I'd go, 'Morning!' And he'd say, 'You don't remember anything you did last night do you?' Then he'd tell me some horror story."

And Amy admits there are several horror stories to choose from.

On Alex's 21st birthday she hurled a bottle of Jack Daniel's at his head.

Amy said: "I'm f*****g horrible when I'm drunk."

The singer's latest album 'Back to Black' was released last year to widespread acclaim, but her frequent drunken antics have sparked concern.

Last month, she was pictured in a supermarket the same day as she pulled out of a concert at Shepherd's Bush Empire claiming to be sick.
