Amy Winehouse is the only British female singer to have won five Grammys in one night. In February 2008 Amy won Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Best New Artist, Song of the Year (Rehab) and Record of the Year (Back to Black) at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles.
Back To Black, her second album (and the biggest selling UK album of 2007), has sold over 5-million copies worldwide and turned Amy into one of the hottest stars in the world. Widely regarded as a modern day masterpiece by critics and fans alike, the phenomenal UK chart success has been mirrored in the US where Back To Black entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number seven making Amy the highest debuting British female artist in the history of the US albums chart.
Amy has picked up a series of awards including a Brit, South Bank Show Award, Ivor Novello, Mojo, Glamour, Elle Style Award, Mobo, MTV Europe’s Artists’ Choice Award and Q Award for Album of the Year. Meanwhile Amy’s 2003 debut album Frank has now gone double platinum selling an incredible 300 000 copies in 2007 alone.
