Winehouse refuses help for weight loss

Singer Amy Winehouse has refused to seek help for her dramatic weight loss, and insists getting professional advice for her problem is a "waste of time".

The Frank hitmaker - who used to sport a fuller figure - has been the subject of much criticism over her slender seven stone frame, but is adamant she can sort her own lifestyle out without having to see a health advisor.

She says: "Someone tried to get me into a weight rehabilitation thing, but I'm the kind of person who can do it by myself. I'm not in denial; I knew I had a problem, but it got to the point where it was like: 'We want you to eat three solid meals a day,' and I was like: 'No girl under the age of 30 eats three meals a day. Girls eat two meals a day.'

"(The doctor) was another one who kept going on about addiction problems and I was just like: 'Aw mate, I can't.'"

She adds: "The thing with people like that (is) they don't have music in their lives, so they don't have an outlet. It's boring. They're wasting their own time, let alone mine."
