It's 2am and a bloodied Amy Winehouse is doing another spot of twilight cleaning

Cleaning in the early hours of the morning appears to becoming rather a habit for Amy Winehouse recently.

The troubled singer was spotted emptying her bins and doing a spot of spring cleaning this morning in a Hilda Ogden-style headscarf.

Only days ago, the 24-year-old donned marigolds and another fetching scarf for a twilight dusting session.

The Rehab singer had obviously collected a lot of rubbish since her last cleaning jaunt on Saturday night and brought several more binbags outside her Camden, north London home.

The erratic star baffled photographers when she carried her Hoover outside, but was quick to explain she was dumping it because it was broken, scoffing at assumptions she was preparing to vacuum the paving outside her home.


It wasn't just Amy's home that needed cleaning - her bloodied arm looked in need of some medical care.

Amy was sporting various cuts and bruises on her body, including a rather painful-looking, bloody cut on her left arm.

After the singer was photographed looking worse for wear on Monday night, it appeared she had taken recent press attention of her distressed skin to heart and had made up for her cleaning photo session.

Amy and former schoolmate, ex-Busted singer Matt Willis, met up to attend a friend's party in Camden.

This morning, however, Amy's face was caked in foundation and her eyes sported her trademark heavy black eyeliner as she attempted to cover up her spotty complexion.

And it wasn't just her vacuum cleaner that was broken... Amy's bra straps appeared to have snapped.

While most women would be quick to throw out a broken bra, the singer decided to 'fix' her underwear with safety pins.
