Amy Winehouse to return to rehab

Troubled Amy Winehouse is set to return to rehab in order to battle her drugs demons, it has been revealed.

The singer -- who spent two weeks in rehab in January -- is likely to escape the UK and check into a rehab facility abroad.

A source told British newspaper The Sun: "Amy has admitted she needs to check into rehab again. There are too many temptations for her in the UK -- people around her in London are making it impossible for her to stay clean for any length of time.

"Her management had considered flying her to a clinic in Israel but are now looking further afield. They are assessing a clinic in Cape Town in South Africa."

The singer -- whose looks have been ravaged by drug abuse -- claims her skin condition is impetigo, a highly contagious bacterial infection.

One medical expert said of Amy's scabby face: "The damage is quite severe, but not unusual with crack cocaine abuse.

"She’s got a number of sores, some of which look infected, and others that have formed ulcers."
