Beauty Byte: Amy Winehouse Says Yes, Yes, Yes to a Beauty Line

If you're into winged eyeliner, you'll be happy to know that Amy Winehouse is expanding her talents far beyond the music business. The soulful jazz singer (who just went to visit her incarcerated hubby) is set to create a line of hair and makeup products that will include star items such as hairspray, head scarves — and of course, black liquid eyeliner.

An anonymous friend of Amy's explained the reasoning behind the line, saying:

Amy’s style has been copied by girls around [England] and there’s a lot of money to be made. It’s a very distinctive look. She wants to bring out a range of cosmetics and fashion products. There could be hairspray, head scarves, liquid eyeliner, perfume.

While I agree that Amy's look is distinctive, after her recent escapades, I'm not so keen on emulating it. But if Amy can get her personal life in order and go back to the glam Motown girl look she used to have, it'll be great to see her focusing on a healthy endeavor.

    Not a big fan of hers. I probably wouldn't buy anything from her line.

    Well, I have bought her CDs, and if the makeup line is cute I'd buy from it too. Hopefully she gets better--such a waste...

    When I think "beauty inspiration" Amy Winehouse is not the first person to come to mind.

    Ohhh dearrrr... just what we need, another wack producing a "beauty" line - sorry, who said Amy Winehouse was beautiful? And why on earth should anyone be emulating her?

    Amy's beautiful, but her style is not something I'd like to see emulated. It barely works for her, honestly.

    However, you have to love the product she uses. If they can show that the products not only create her style, but are versatile, it might fly.

    I do like her music and beauty is in the eye of the beholder; emulating her is another thing subject - why? I might buy it cause it's makeup not because it's her label.

    There's a crack pipe in the gift-with-purchase promo set.

    Sorry, she's just disgusting and I can't imagine wanting to emulate her style.

    OMG that's just ridiculous!!!!!!

    WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING LETTING HER HAVE A BEAUTY LINE!??!!

    She uses the eye liner to excess amount...that it looks scary!
    And her hair doesn't even look real...
    It looks like a big fat wig..

    OMG...the world is going mad.

    My man says she's so ugly and she's so bad that she's actually attractive as in a badgirl. I didn't know that about him. And if I tried that look, he'd be grossed out.
