Amy Winehouse has allegedly been put under 24-hour surveillance say reports, as a desperate method to help keep the singer clean and drug-free.
After her spell at hospital where doctors found Amy to be suffering from emphysema, a source says executives at Island Records have allegedly hired a full-time security guard to ensure drug dealers and her drug-taking friends are kept at bay.
The source says to the Mirror, "Effectively, Amy's been put under house arrest. She is being monitored by 24/7 surveillance to make sure she's behaving herself and keeping out of harm's way."
"There is also a security guard stationed outside her house around the clock to vet any undesirables. From now on, there'll be no more waifs and strays (random people) coming into her place, wreaking havoc."
"Crucially, they don't want known drug dealers coming anywhere near her. Amy has to give them names of people expected. Anyone who turns up uninvited will be sent packing. It's for her own good."
Amy Winehouse performed at Glastonbury over the weekend opening up for rapper Jay-Z. A video showing what looked like the singer hitting a member of the audience also came out, however no charges have been served.
