Days after having a $50,000 breast enhancement, Amy Winehouse checked into a London clinic fearing her new breasts might explode. The singer, 26, had the surgery in hopes of making a comeback, after drug abuse and a breakup with ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil left her emaciated. After singing on a popular British dance show, she left the stage, complaining, “I need to see someone. My boobs are f---ing killing me!” Winehouse was noticeably out of step during the performance, and “could hardly lift her arms” because of the pain, said the London Daily Mirror.
