Winehouse’s man tops anti-celeb list
Just as the singer Amy Winehouse and her husband Blake Fielder-Civil are rumoured to be renewing their wedding vows inside London's Pentonville Prison today, Fielder-Civil has topped a poll to find the least popular male celebrity in Britain. The poll was conducted by Arena magazine,which named him the 'worst husband ever'.
"If your wife is partial to a nice bit of heroin, then you should probably help her out by abstaining from drugs yourself, not standing on the sidelines chanting 'plunge it down, you Zulu warrior' or whatever it is junkies shout to egg each other on," said the magazine.
Fielder-Civil is on remand in Pentonville, awaiting trial for assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. Winehouse, meanwhile, has been invited to perform at the Grammy awards in Los Angeles on February 10, despite having pulled out of her last US tour in September following a stint in rehab. Whether she will be allowed entry to the US is debatable following her recent arrest in connection with her husband's charge of perverting the course of justice.
Arena poll put the graffiti artist Banksy second in its 'anti-icon' poll, commenting: "Banksy is mainly lauded by sixth-formers whose minds are so fogged by hormones that they believe stencils of policemen kissing passes for caustic social commentary. Less enamoured with his work are the taxpayers who spend £1bn cleaning graffiti in the UK each year, money which would arguably be better spent paying nurses, or even gay policemen."
The full top ten goes: 1 Blake Fielder-Civil; 2 Banksy; 3 Chelsea and England footballer Frank Lampard; 4 falsetto-voiced singer Mika; 5 chat show host Jeremy Kyle; 6 singer and husband-of-Jordan Peter Andre; 7 Big Brother housemate Ziggy; 8 the singer known as Prince; 9 TV hosts Ant and Dec; 10 Top Gear's Richard Hammond. ·
