Fresh out of rehab for substance abuse, troubled singer Amy Winehouse may have been physically absent from the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday night, but her presence was certainly strong even via satellite feed from London as she won five Grammys out of the nominated six: Record of the Year, Best New Artist, Song of the Year for "Rehab," Best Vocal Album and Best Pop Vocal Performance. Following her visa issues earlier this week (she was originally denied a US visa to attend the US awards show only for the decision to be overturned at the last minute), Winehouse performed two songs via satellite. After accepting her awards, an obviously gobsmacked and emotional Winehouse hugged and thanked her parents and band members, record label and her "Blake incarcerated," who has been behind bars since last last year on charges of conspiracy involving alleged witness tampering in his upcoming assault trial. Ever the patriot, she also said "this is for London" and mentioned the Camden fire that had gutted her local watering hole "The Hawley Arms."
