Has anyone seen the Empire State Building with its top 33 floors lit up, peach, purple and cream before? No!

Has any female performer ever had 18 number ones on Billboard before? No!

Then put the two together and there’s the answer!

This weekend, upon questioning various people in Manhattan, I was reliably informed, the ESB was regally lit in purple to celebrate the achievement made by New York’s own diva Mariah Carey, who this week took over the number one spot with Touch My Body

Which has been taken from her latest album, Touch My Body from her latest album, E=MC².

The record for the most number one positions was previously held by Elvis Presley who found himself there 17 times and by The Beatles who had 21 number one singles and still hold the title as men and as a group.

It cant have come as any surprise to either Amy Winehouse, her parents or the organisers of the Grammy Awards when our favourite rehab inmate was refused a visa for entry to the United States ahead of Sunday’s Grammy Awards.

Although it may come as a disappointment to fans as well as Amy herself, it wouldn’t send out a good message to other drug users that all is well with the world even when you abuse the law.

 Perhaps the message will filter through Amy’s mashed potato brain now that she needs to get sorted out and behave as a descent memebr of society.

With 6 Grammy nominations ranging from, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for “Rehab,” Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for Back to Black, to Best New Artist, Amy Winehouse will  now attend the awards in  via satellite to the Grammys.

 Winehouse will leave the rehab clinic where she has been for the past 2 weeks to prepare for her performance and Winehouse herself has released a statement saying, “I’m raring to go and really excited to be performing at my first Grammy Awards. I’d like to thank everyone for their support over the last couple of weeks. I’m really sorry I can’t be there but I appreciate that I’m being given a second chance via satellite.”

Amy’s lack of attendance at the awards will see her missing tributes to established stars such as Beyoncé, the Foo Fighters, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner and a tribute to the Beatles.
