LONDON -- Troubled British soul singer Amy Winehouse was admitted Thursday to a rehabilitation clinic to help her battle against drug addiction, her record company said.
"Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors," Universal said in a statement, adding that she had cancelled a planned appearance at the NRJ awards in France on Saturday.
"She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction and prepare for her planned appearance at the Grammy Awards.
"Amy entered the facility by mutual agreement and continues to receive the full support of all concerned."
Winehouse, 24, has fought an increasingly public battle against drink and drug addiction, leading to concerns from fans about her health and well-being.
Just last Friday, she was filmed apparently smoking crack cocaine, before attending a court hearing involving her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, who is awaiting trial assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice charges.
Winehouse, has earned six Grammy nominations -- the music industry's most prestigious awards -- and is scheduled to perform at the awards ceremony in Los Angeles on February 10.
She is also due in court in Bergen, Norway, on February 29 after being arrested and fined for drug use and possession of marijuana.
She was admitted to hospital last year, reportedly after bingeing on drugs, and abandoned her recent British tour following a handful of shambolic concerts, raising more concerns about her health.
Critically acclaimed, Winehouse's hit "Rehab" -- with its lyrics "They tried to make me go to rehab, I said, no, no, no" -- has become a signature tune for her very public battle with her demons.
