Amy Winehouse makes the rich kids list
by Maja Gojkovic
Amy Winehouse has made it onto the rich kids list that features Britain’s richest young stars. The volatile celebrity is said to have raked in a £10million fortune.
Amy,24, who has been in re-hab and whose husband is in prison is believed to have continued to rake in cash despite her continuous and lengthy booze and drugs battle.
Winehouse is the 10th wealthiest singer on the list all under the age of 30. The list of young richies feature in the Sunday Times Young Music Millionaires list.
Other artists who have suprisingly made it onto the list include Leona Lewis who is at No14 on the rich list with a fortune of £6million, definitely boosted by her recent US chart success.
List editor Ian Coxon said: “Although Amy’s had her troubles off stage, she’s a great performer. However, if things continue, it might well be that Leona overtakes her.” Both trail far behind No1 Dhani Harrison, with £160million inherited from late Beatle dad George.
The rich list also includes:
