Pop singer Amy Winehouse has denied that she has an alcohol addiction, despite rumours circulating in the tabloid press.

Winehouse has been the target of a number of newspapers of late and recently appeared on TV show Never Mind The Buzzcocks looking a little under the influence.

However, speaking to 6music, she denied the allegations, saying that her family and friends had no concerns: "If they were genuinely concerned, I don't like to worry people I love.

"The tabloids aren't worried about me so they can do what they want."
