Amy WinehouseAmy Winehouse has reportedly been trying to distract herself from her drug withdrawal pain by watching Marilyn Monroe films.

Her dad Mitch Winehouse told the Sun: “Amy is very ill and is suffering horrific withdrawal symptoms - shivering and constantly throwing up. Her body is expelling all the rubbish.”

“One thing helping Amy is her Marilyn Monroe films. Amy loves Some Like It Hot. She’s a huge fan of Monroe and thinks she’s wonderful.”

He added that he has yet to see his famous daughter since she was admitted to the Capio Nightingale Hospital last Thursday: “She’s had no visitors because we didn’t want her to get emotional. Hopefully doctors will let us see her today.”

“She’s compliant and follows everything they tell her.”

Amy finally checked into rehab last week after a video was released showing her smoking crack cocaine.
