Amy Winehouse is desperate to go to prison so she can empathise with husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
The troubled star - who was arrested on Tuesday (18.12.07) before being released on police bail - has been spiralling out of control ever since Blake was arrested and sent to prison last month.
Now Amy is intent on being put behind bars as she believes it will bring her closer to her husband.
A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "It's almost like she wants to get herself jailed so she can feel how Blake feels and in that way feel closer to him.
"Everyone is trying to get her to snap out of it but we worry. These past few weeks have been hard on her and we don't want her to self-destruct. But she's on a downward spiral."
Amy voluntarily turned herself into Shoreditch police station, in London's Hackney area, in connection with the investigation into her husband's charge of perverting the course of justice.
A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: "A 24-year-old woman has been bailed to return to an east London police station on a date in early March pending further inquiries."
Blake is currently being held in custody in London's Pentonville Prison after allegedly conspiring to pervert the course of justice by bribing James King, the landlord of Macbeth's public house in Hoxton, to withdraw his allegation of grievous bodily harm (GBH) against the 25-year-old.
He will be remanded in custody until January 18 for a plea and directions hearing.
