Singer Amy Winehouse has been photographed by British paparazzi with terrible impetigo crusty scars on her face, and fresh cuts criss-crossing her arms.
The singer was seen leaving her Camden home with the Quarter sized rash on her face. Impetigo is a highly infectious skin disease.
Allegedly under the care of a doctor, Winehouse looked like she was still afflicted by the disease, and her wounds on her arms were not related to the impetigo.
A sun bed was delivered to Amy's house in North London, the British media muses it is for healing her mottled skin.
The marks on Amy's arm raised speculation she is cutting herself again. She has admitted cutting herself before as a child
Even Keith Richards, the poster grand-daddy of all substance abusers has warned that Amy "wouldn't be around for long" unless she cleaned up her act.
The Stones' lead singer Mick Jagger also said Winehouse's music would suffer because of the time she spent dealing with the authorities over drugs.
Asked which modern artists he rated, he told The Mail on Sunday's Live! magazine: "There's only one person. That girl Amy. "Mind you, that girl isn't going to be around long unless she sorts herself out pretty quick. Amy's got to get smart."
But wise Richards, 64, said he did not expect her to listen.
He said: "I'm not a preacher. But I've been there and you have to pass it on."
