The troubled singer - who checked out of a London rehab clinic last month -
shocked onlookers when she nasally inhaled the potent spirit through a straw
while partying with friends including Kelly Osbourne, Mark Ronson and
Kimberly Stewart at London's Bungalow 8 club on Wednesday (03.05.08).
A source said: "Somebody had brought over 20 shots to Amy's table and she
decided to show off her new party trick.
"She necked the top of the shot and lit the rest with a lighter. Then she
grabbed a straw and sucked what was left up her nose.
"Amy threw back her head and reeled in shock and everyone around her looked
stunned."
Doctors have warned Amy's party trick, known as a Gas Chamber, could be
potentially lethal as alcohol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream.
Meanwhile, the 24-year-old 'Rehab' star flew into a rage yesterday
(03.06.08) when she spotted an unauthorized biography about her on sale at
her local London garage.
Amy - who popped into the shop to pick up some sweets on her way home after
partying till 5am - demanded the $24 book, titled 'Amy, Amy, Amy: The Amy
Winehouse Story', be taken off the shelves immediately.
The book, by Nick Johnstone, details Amy's rise to fame her battle with
drink and drugs and the arrest of her husband Blake Fielder Civil, who is
currently awaiting trial at London's Pentonville Prison.
