Amy Winehouse: Covered in Nothing but Tape, Scabs

In honor of naked celebrity week (well, that is, if Audrina, Kristin, and Ashley the call girl count as celebrities), Amy Winehouse is also taking her clothes off. Nope, it’s not her usual cracked-out ramble through the streets in a dingy bra. This time Winehouse got her kit off for charity, stripping down for photographer Carolyn Djanogly to raise awareness about breast cancer among young women.
The songstress appears nekkid in the April issue of British women’s magazine Easy Living, where she’s pictured strumming her guitar in the buff while covered only in two pieces of duct tape. Because looking scarily out of it (with a mild S&M twist) is just fine, as long as you’re doing it for a good cause. Also stripping off for sick ladies? Actress Helena Bonham Carter and ’90s crooner Sade.
Update: Sadly, it appears that someone hates charity: we’ve been cease-and-desisted to remove the photo. If only there were, I dunno, eight million other places on the web you might find it.
