I find Amy Winehouse kind of annoying.

Or at least, I find the coverage of her to be annoying.

The theory I'm working on is that people apparently find substance abuse by British women to be glamorous and edgy, and not sad and pathetic.

A somewhat related theory is that if the same exact music was released by a black American and not a white Brit, people (press types or whoever) would be far less inclined to pay any attention at all.
