Amy Winehouse has been accused of killing her friend's hamster.
The troubled singer - who has a well-documented problem with drink and drugs - had been partying at pal Peter Pepper's girlfriend's house when poor rodent Georgie Porgie lost its life and Peter is convinced Amy was responsible.
Peter, Amy's former session musician, said: "Georgie was a birthday present and we'd got him out to play with in the morning. I'd been to bed, but Amy had stayed up and there was still going strong and had drunk the drinks cabinet dry.
"The next thing I know, it bites me, runs off and Amy says she'll catch it. I was a bit suspicious when she said she was good with hamsters.
"But I went to put a plaster on my finger and by the time I came back Amy said she'd put it to bed and it was sleeping. But just hours later Georgie was stone cold and hard. I don't know what she did to it - it was probably crack!"
Despite the incident last year Peter, who is now the lead singer of new band Palladium, has remained good friends with Amy but is "too scared" about raising the issue about Georgie's suspicious death with her.
He added to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "I've never directly accused her of killing my hamster as I'm too scared. She can be quite fierce."

why...why? I've always been a good boy. I don't like her anymore. She is not even pretty anyway and her voice is horrid. I don't know why people likes her music.
Georgie :) (from heaven)
This is perhaps the most pointless story I've ever read. My hampster died when I was five and I didn't get news stories on MTV and other previously respectable websites. Perhaps report on something more worthwhile next time.
'R' - It never ceases to amaze me the way people post complaints about how pointless they think an article is. If I'm not interested in something I don't read it, let alone take the time to post a comment about it. You must be incredibly bored!
As for Amy Whinehouse - her stories are getting weirder by the day. She should hurry up and OD so we can all forget about her.
No, not incredibly bored, just incredibly irritated that things like this get posted on 'news' websites. When I go to look at Google News, I expect to read interesting stories, not ones about pet hampsters and Amy Wino. And with regards to the above comment about a bad example set to children - does it really matter? I think most children stay away from crack cocaine, injecting heroin between their toes and partners who pervert the courts of justice. If they don't then the parents really need to monitor their offspring.
a sever Appearance Deficit Disorder. How utterly fugly can a female get? Go fix yourself up Amy. In addition to that she's bad news everywhere she goes. Let's see now, there's got to be something positive in all this; oh I know, Bush has 423 days and 6 1/2 hours left in office. After that we will finally have leadership.
This story was old and stupid 5 seconds after it was written. Who the h*ll is Peter Pepper, anyway? Palladium may be a fine band-I do not know-but this guy sounds like a REAL winner. This guy had a hamster for a pet (that bites him), he is afraid of a woman who probably weighs all of 100 pounds (approx. 45 Kilos) soaking wet, she drank him under the table though she is Amy Winehouse so that doesn't make him TOO much of a lightweight but now he wants to make something of the pet? Someone give this loser a fiver so he can go get another pet from Lame-Os Are Us and he can shut his big yapper. Palladium needs publicity this badly? Pete, you can't even handle a stoned, 5 foot (approx. 1.52 meters) tall woman, maybe you should get into a line of work more suited to your temperament, such as librarian.
Amy has a great voice: sometimes she sounds like macy grey, sometimes like Billie Holiday.
But why is it that youre not allowed to say anyting bad about micheal Vick without being branded an insensitive racist, but its perfectly okay to be outraged at amy winehouse?
Its okay for micheal vick to make sport out of killing and torturing dogs. But amy winehouse gets excomunicated from the human race because on a single occasion she accidentally killed a hamster?
Substitute humans for animals: amy is the equivalent of a drunk driver who accidentally kills a pedestrian- a serious matter. Micheal is the equivalent of Ted Bundy or Jeffery daumier.
So being a serial killer is less serious than being a drunk driver?
How does it work?
