Monroe helps Winehouse through rehab

Amy Winehouse has been watching Marilyn Monroe films to help her through rehab, claims her father.

Winehouse is reportedly a huge fan of the legendary '50s actress and has been viewing the films on repeat since being admitted to rehab last week.

Taxi driver Mitch Winehouse told The Sun: "Amy is very ill and is suffering horrific withdrawal symptoms - shivering and constantly throwing up. Her body is expelling all the rubbish.

"One thing helping Amy is her Marilyn Monroe films. Amy loves Some Like It Hot. She’s a huge fan of Monroe and thinks she’s wonderful."

Winehouse has been undergoing treatment at London's Capio Nightingale Hospital following the publication last Tuesday of a video, showing her smoking crack cocaine.
