Wow, what a shame...

Amy Winehouse before and after....

If only you could get inside her mind and try to figure out why she's living a self-destructive lifestyle.

To be fair, that's also before and after posed vs. candid, professional photographer, professional lighting, professional makeup artist, professional wardrobe specialist, professional hair stylist, professional digital photo editor, etc. etc.

True, but even so. I'm betting it would take a fair bit longer on photoshop to get her looking close to the old photo.

It reminds me of that anti-heroin advert they ran a few years back that charted in pictures a person's look as they descended into addiction.

She's stick thin now as well and that new pic is scary. I saw an interview with her just before she got really famous (on Jonathan Ross, i think) and she looked great, and that was on TV, not a still photo.

 

[OLD ELPASO]

I dunno if she can drop the drugs and the lifestyle, but she's gotta do something about that cold sore!

I think the most effective of these type of drug-user-changing photos is the series of before and after crystal meth series.

Here's one

and many more

Yeah those are similar to the heroin one I was thinking of from years ago. Very effective, and horrible too.

 

[David G.]

Those crystal meth pictures are freaky.😱

So are you in the 'All drugs are bad' camp, or the 'Some drugs are bad and our harsh anti-all-drug laws and youth messages only make the the situation much worse' camp?

(I don't know what the drug laws and youth messages are like in Sydney, but I assume they're not too different than the US's)

How many other famous people could be asked the same question?

 

[themadchemist]

I don't even know who this is.

But for clarification, the left photo is after, right? Why is the before to the right of the after? That's just confusing.

Yeah you are correct sir, you don't really need to know who she is just look at what happened.

 

[mcarnes]

Soooooooo HOT

 

[puckhead193]

well when your song is "they tried to make me go to rehab but i won't go" may cause some problems for you in the long run.

 

[themadchemist]

Soooooooo HOT

I'm trying to decide whether that photo is scary or sad.

mind/pants.. which one? hrmm

 

[yg17]

mind/pants.. which one? hrmm

If that's her, I think I'd rather get in my car and drive far, far away

 

[Steel Wheels]

Definitely not one of her more flattering pictures. But she definitely has a set of pipes.

I don't know who she is either, but she looks gross in both pictures.

 

[Abstract]

You don't know who she is because she's English. You can tell by the teeth.

 

[Rhosfelt]

Even with all of the drugs she has bought, this girl STILL has a ton of money.. She is doing something right I guess, and I think i could straighten her out 😉.

Teeth?

😛

 

[motulist]

As soon as I start being able to hear with my eyes, then I'll start caring about how she looks. But until then, I only care about how she sounds. And she sounds awesome.

I was just waiting for someone to bring that up. 😛

 

[MikeTheC]

Scary.

However, to the OP: Based on your before/after photos, it looks like she is actually doing much better!
