Amy Winehouse’s father Mitch refuses to allow a biopic to be made of the late singer’s life, by not allowing any moviemakers to use her music.

Her boyfriend, Reg Traviss, already revealed that he was approached to assist with the making of such a movie, but turned it down. Too soon, I’m sure…

Now, Mitch Winehouse says that he would never allow movie execs to use the rights to Amy’s music in any movie about her life.

In a new interview, he said, “It would hardly be a biopic without the music and we’d never allow the songs to be released.”

Do you want to see a movie based on Amy Winehouse’s life? Do you think her father should allow her music to be used for such a movie? What do you think? Sound off in the comments and let us know.

Amy Winehouse tragically passed away on July 23, 2011 and her father, Mitch, is opening up about that fateful day.

He has just arrived in New York City on July 24th when he got a call from Amy’s security guard informing him of her passing. He said that he will never forget that sad day.

He said, “I was in New York when I found out. I was at my cousin’s cuddling his newborn babies. He had just been asking me how Amy was. I said she was fine — then my phone rang. It was Andrew, her security guard, in tears. He said something terrible had happened. Amy had died. I couldn’t understand him at first. I was like ice. I was cool as a cucumber. I told him to tell me again. I was in a terrible state of shock. I was just sitting there.”

After learning of his daughter’s untimely death, Mitch flew back to the U.K. and spent the whole flight in a state of shock. He said, “I was just sitting there. The flight home was horrendous. In my mind, I was saying, ‘Stop messing about Amy.’ She was a practical joker and I just hoped everyone had it wrong – even though I knew it was right. It was horrible. I couldn’t cry. I wasn’t able to do anything. I was just numb.”

Mitch revealed that his daughter passed away from a seizure related to her alcohol detoxification. He said, “I can’t watch any footage of her. I broke down when I saw some clips of us together on TV. But I want to remember everything about her. The good times and the bad times. I don’t want to forget anything.”

Mitch and Janis Winehouse have been invited to the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards for a special tribute to their late daughter, Amy.

Tony Bennett will take the stage on Sunday for the first time since the early 90′s to honor Amy’s memory. Producers of the show are hoping that her parents will make an appearance as their special guests.

Executive Producer Dave Sirulnick said, “We’re still working on it. Some pieces are still coming together.”

According to reports, the tribute portion of the show will feature never before seen footage of Tony and Amy recording Body And Soul for his album, Duets II.

Upon examination, the coroner found no illegal drugs in Amy’s system at the time of her unfortunate passing. The coroner did say that she had been drinking, however. There was no mention of any legal substances in the report, according to her parents.

RIP.

Of course Amy Winehouse’s parents approve of her new boyfriend, Reg Traviss. He doesn’t dress like he’s homeless and so far he hasn’t gotten Amy addicted to anything other than a better wardrobe. So, he can’t be that bad, can he?

Mitch Winehouse said, “He’s a really nice chap. They’re very fond of each other, so we will have to see how it goes.”

Amy’s mother Janice feels the same. She said, “You just want to see your child happy and healthy and if Reg can help Amy stay in a place like that, then it’s a good thing. Amy, bless her, is a little girl in love. I think it’s what’s called early days, but it’s great for me to see Reg making her so happy. She seems to like everything about him.”

What’s not to like? He’s well dressed and he doesn’t have an expensive drug habit. I’m sold. Now where’s our new album, Amy?

Amy Winehouse has really cleaned herself up. She has seemingly kicked the drug habit and has gone on a self-improvement kick. She recently got breast enhancement surgery, she’s gotten her lips plumped for that special trout pout, and now she wants a little junk in her trunk.

A source said, “Amy loves her boobs. She can’t stop touching them and showing them off to friends. She says she feels womanly again and wants to be more curvy like she used to be. She thinks by having another op and bum implants that she will achieve her dream pin-up look.”

I guess her father would be able to corroborate that story. When asked how his daughter was doing, Mitch Winehouse commented, “Fantastic, fantastic. Her boobs are great as well.” That crap is so gross, I can’t even think about it. What a Joe Simpson slob.

I’m starting to think that she’s either addicted to having the surgeries, or maybe it’s just the drugs that they give you during recovery?

It’s eau de funk. Apparently Amy Winehouse wants in on the cash cow that belongs to celebrity fragrance makers. Britney Spears has launched a highly successful campaign, as well as Christina Aguilera and other singers. So what makes Amy any different?

I mean, besides the fact that she doesn’t look like she’s even had a bath in the last century, let alone wear perfume?

A source claims that Mitch Winehouse is pushing for it and that she’s already had a deal on the table for a half million dollars. Amy has refused thus far, but a new fragrance sporting her 1950′s smoky scent could be out in stores before you know it. Stay tuned.

I know, it seems as if Amy Winehouse has been taking over my blog here, but I can assure you that this is not the case.

She just needs to stop doing stupid crap already…agreed?

Daddy Mitch is speaking out—to the media, of course.

He says that Amy needs to kick the habit or die:

He says, “She will die. But it won’t be from a drugs overdose. She will die from emphysema. That will be the most likely scenario if she doesn’t check her behaviour. We are talking about a long, slow, painful death – gasping for air. I would like all the people who would give her illegal substances to think about that.”

Thank you, Captain Obvious.
