Amy Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, is paying tribute to his late daughter for receiving a Brit Award nomination four years after her death - but not for Oscar nomination that was nabbed by a documentary about her life. Mitch took to Twitter on Tuesday to praise Amy for the musical legacy she's left behind. "Just heard Amy nominated for Brit for best British female singer. We are so proud of you baby," he wrote. The Brit award nomination - in which she will go up against Adele in the British solo female artist category - comes on Thursday, the...

Amy Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, is paying tribute to his late daughter for receiving a Brit Award nomination four years after her death - but not for Oscar nomination that was nabbed by a documentary about her life.

Just like everyone, Amy Winehouse's mom is likely to hear "Black to Black" or "Rehab" played wherever she goes. But for Janis Winehouse, the songs are like a greeting from the daughter she lost in 2011. "Hearing her songs played, I always say "Hello, Amy”, says Janis, 60, "That’s what’s lovely. She's here all the time." Since Amy's death, her family has marked some happy milestones that help ease the unending anguish of their loss. Janis remarried old friend Richard Collins, 64, in September 2011. And in September 2014, the singer's older brother Alex celebrated the birth of a baby boy with his wife Riva.

Amy Winehouse's mom has revealed how she watched her adoring daughter turn into a "stranger" as she descended into drink and drug addiction. Janis Winehouse-Collins, 60, writes in her new memoir, Loving Amy: A Mother's Story, about the agony of seeing the "Rehab" singer, strained by the rigors of fame, change from a chatty little girl, with a "wonderful sense of humor" into a shadow of her former self. But speaking to People, Janis says that more than three years after Amy's death at age 27 on July 23, 2011, she has no regrets. "There was nothing I could have done that was different,...

As a sparky and outspoken child, Amy Winehouse caused havoc at her North London school. But as her mom Janis Winehouse-Collins thinks back on the daughter who lived up her to her nickname 'Hurricane Amy', she tells People that she wonders whether the star singer may have suffered from the neurological disorder Tourette Syndrome, which is characterized by physical and vocal tics. "She could well have been almost Tourette's, where she would just shout things out," says Janis, 60. "We just do not know." The "Back to Black" singer died from alcohol poisoning at age 27 in 2011. Janis has written a new memoir,...

Emily Watson will star in BBC One drama A Song For Jenny.

The War Horse actress will play the mother of a girl, Jenny, who was killed in the London bombings in 2005, reports Radio Times.

The drama is based on Julie Nicholson's memoir A Song For Jenny: A Mother's Story of Love and Loss, and will follow the real-life events of July 7, 2005.

Playwright Frank McGuinness will write the script for the project, which will air to mark the 10th anniversary of the attack.

Watson said: "Although daunted by the task ahead, as a Londoner who was there on 7/7, I feel honoured to be part of the team asked to tell this compelling story. I hope we can do it justice."

Nicholson added: "Despite the poignancy of the subject, I am delighted that my memoir has inspired the re-telling of Jenny's story for film.

"I believe it is in safe...
