Lada GaGa: 'Amy Winehouse Is A Beautiful Girl'

New Yorker Lady GaGa has praised Amy Winehouse, describing the singer as a “beautiful girl”.

Lady GaGa, who is currently number one in the UK singles chart, also said the singer's honesty reminded her of performers in the 1970s.

“Amy is a real artist. I get frustrated when I tour so much that my voice is messed up,” she told the Sun newspaper.

“But I always say to myself that I watch performances from Amy where I swear she didn’t hit a note, and she was shot and shot deep on something, but I can’t take my eyes off that beautiful girl.

She added: “There’s something about her that’s so honest. That was what the Seventies and Eighties were about, and what women were about then, and that’s why legends were created. It wasn’t about manicures."

Lady GaGa is currently supporting the Pussycat Dolls and is due to play her debut UK solo show at London's G-A-Y on Saturday (January 17th).

As previously reported on Gigwise, Winehouse's husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, yesterday (January 12th) filed for divorce on the grounds of her alleged infidelity.

Winehouse is currently on holiday in the Caribbean.
