Music Makes Good Pics Too: Biting my tongue ‘cuz it is a good cause

I am fairly certain I have trashed Ms.Winehouse on this very blog in the past - I have issues with those displaying clear talent choosing to get twisted out of their trees instead and she has been an easy target for such attacks. I will digress on such attacks for now and support her stand on raising awareness about breast cancer with young women.

I lost my mom to breast cancer, and while not quite 24 [she was 42 when first diagnosed] I can speak to the need for for women of any age to be aware and take the time for regular self examinations and doctor visits when appropriate. Working for the Canadian Cancer Society I meet young girls [young children] to seniors fighting cancer - their is no age limit or requirement when it comes to cancer invading your body. And anyone’s odds when fighting cancer are greatly improved with early detection.

Moodily strumming a guitar in the nude, with only two pieces of duct tape and a strategically placed musical instrument to protect her modesty, Amy Winehouse is the epitome of rock’n'roll style in a new series of images taken to raise awareness of breast cancer among young women.

The black and white portrait shows the Rehab chanteuse performing one of her sultry sets in a basement studio. “I feel it’s so important that people understand breast cancer affects young people as well as older women,” says the 24-year-old.
