Keri Hilson Sparks Amy Winehouse Resurrection Controversy

Published: Tuesday 26th Jul 2011 by David

Award winning entertainer Keri Hilson has found herself at the center of controversy after posting an image of she and an Amy Winehouse impersonator online, followed by the caption “Amy Winehouse resurrected to party with me”

Find out more below…

In what grew to offend many on the social networking site Twitter, Ms. Hilson quickly explained herself to the relief of many of her supporters and fans of the late singer.

She explained:

Come on, I mean no harm. All due respect. But the resemblance really freaked me out. This was simply the best tribute ever.#RIPAMYWINEHOUSE.

Going onto explain:

I apologize to anyone who might’ve taken it the wrong way. As a fan, I thought it was cool that she had dressed up to honor Amy.

    it’s too soon for all this… She just died and to write something like that is horrible i think jokeornojoke -___-

  2. loveCRIMES July 26, 2011

    I’m a die hard Amy Winehouse stan and I didn’t find this disrespectful.

  3. WhatEver July 26, 2011

    That was so dump of her since Amy passed away due to partying to damn much. The woman is decreased, Why joke about it?

  4. Those That Cannot Do, Stan July 26, 2011

    What the hell is wrong with the website, why is everything out or order?

    Anyway: dumb, dumb, dumb.

    Twitter will be the death of some celebrities, opening your bog mouth and posting something no one would have known otherwise.

    I think it’s stupid, clearly she didn’t mean to offend, that chick does look like Amy, at least Keri offered condolences unlike SOME celeb.

  5. LS July 26, 2011

    I don’t understand why she felt the need to do that when the woman just died. Can she at LEAST be buried first? Sheesh…It’s f**ked up how people are being blatently disrespectful about her passing, like she choose to die. Addiction is a disease that not everyone can break through, and I wish people would have a bit more empathy and sensitivity to the matter.

  6. jeremydante July 26, 2011

    this is the reason i don’t follow keri hilson’s b**** ass on twitter. she be on so much b*******. there are a lot of people hurting off this & this was a bad call of judgement on her part. that s*** is not funny. “resurrected to party with me” [?] it’s that same logic that created a flop album keri. c’mon chick pull it together.

    so fuckn stupid.

  7. NikkiIsChillin July 26, 2011

    I like Keri, but this does seem to be in poor taste….

  8. Tigerlashes July 26, 2011

    Nah, keri can suck out. You realise she only used amy’s name to bring herself a little publicity. It’s not even funny, what if her parents had come across that picture hours after her death, would they find it ‘funny’ then? Nah lost respect for the b****. What goes round comes round.

  9. lisa July 26, 2011

    KERI JUST SHOWING HER TRUE COLORS, I KNEW SHE GOT BAD CHARACTER!

  10. King B July 26, 2011

    I’m glad this dumb b**** got her ass dragged on Twitter.

    Another reason to not like her.

  11. Tha Performer July 26, 2011

    Yall are so damn dumb!!! I don’t see the harm in any of it to be honest and knowing who Keri is I know damn well she was not trying to be disrespectful. Only thing I can fault her for is not carefully assessing that ppl would be so damn dumb and ignorant when they saw it!!! Grow up ppl and stop being so damn sensitive!!!!

  12. YeaBey Stans 4 4closure! July 26, 2011

    She must have lost 20,000 fans just for posting that picture with a woman that does NOT look Like Amy even with my eye squinted!

  22. Ur in a field full of bees so dont be surprise wen ur ass get stung (queenbey) July 26, 2011

  23. Traci July 26, 2011

    The chick is tragic. COMPLETELY. Amy would never party with her ass! She always comes out the side of her mouth and it bites her in the ass….Chick needs to be taught some etiquette. Tacky ass b****.

  24. YOUR Queen! July 26, 2011

    I’m sorry but even if it was a joke its just TACKY! Way too soon. Keri Hilson doesn’t make it easy for people to like her.

  25. jamir21:rih,gaga,brit,mimi,nicki,mike,and bey ! July 26, 2011

  27. therealest July 26, 2011

    this b**** will do anything for some promo. damn.

  28. TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN July 26, 2011

    Next she’ll be dancing with the 90 teenagers who died in norway.

  29. WildChild July 26, 2011

    lmao @TS#1 Fan!!!!!

    The woman on the picture clearly looks out of it. She could have taken a better picture or something. smfh

  30. lol July 26, 2011

    i lost so much respect for her, even Keri Hilson tweets about Amy Winehouse death i found were disrecpectful calling Amy’s ways “self- distructive”. Honestly you can read inbetween the lines and tell that Keri is/was not a Fan of Amy . I can tell. And for the people who dont understand how her tweet is disrepectful- think of it this way if Keri Hilson Mom or your mom died THREE days ago and someone tweeted this, would keri or YOU find it appropriate ?

  31. WildChild July 26, 2011

    Keri has always been shady. I am not surprised by this.

  32. Chance5557 July 26, 2011

    *waves to kerri* BEAT IT GIRL! Take your dusty ass wig and find a seat and never get out of it!
    Just Tacky, does Amy even know who you are? I’m not dealing with these girls today… smh…

  33. Davy July 26, 2011

    Distasteful! The picture is one thing but the “resurrection” is out of order.

  34. nikki July 26, 2011

    Only thing that made it bad was the caption…the picture itself is harmless….

  35. Mira July 26, 2011

    Oh no, she didn’t!

    Stupid b****.

  36. Yall Are Too Fake July 26, 2011

    @Tyler

    How is Amy Winehouse’s death her Fault?? She didn’t choose to die and your f** ass don’t even know if it’s drug related. You know dependency can also cause internal damage?
    How dare you blame Amy for her untimely passing. You are just demonic. I will definitely pray for you.

  37. tyler July 26, 2011

    @LOL

    shut up if yo mother died today and i knew she was on crack i would say the same f****** thing. Her ass shouldnt did crack i would say the same bout my mother as well

    I love keri cause she don’t sugar coat s*** she aint fake like these other celebs. Most of the celebs who tweeted dont know a damn amy song but they sayin all the nice things. Most of yall dont even her songs excepts rehab.

    if you don’t like what keri had to say shut ya ass up and go to another post. Can’t you idiots
    see she don’t care what yall say she gonna still speak her mind. Let me would have been her i would put you b****** in ya place. LOrd knows i dont need to get famous.

    For the record amy shouldnt have done drugs she is the one to blame. its sad but its her own fault., ppl get on my nerves with this s***.

    Let whitney houston die everybody who talked about her yesterday gonna be praising her with they fake asses.

  38. lol July 26, 2011

    @tyler
    NO ! YOU SIT YOUR CRUSTY A** DOWN and show the DEAD some respect!!!

    I dont give a damn if Amy was an addict she still OPENED doors for a lot of artist,she did charity for Global Fund, Save The Music Foundation, BREAST CANCER. your average every day “crack head ” is not that influential.

    Secondly … her autopsy results have not been revealed yet , we DO KNOW their were NO, NONE , ZILCH amount of drugs found in her home , so know one knows YET if the death is amy’s fault .

    Yes the media is fake for kissing her ass now that shes dead when they thrashed when she was alive but their is no denying that girls TALENT/LEGACY.

    AND FINALY Amy accomplished more in her short 27 years of life then Keri Hilson did/has in her TWENTY -EIGHT!! years of life. Her tweet was in bad taste the END. Hell Keri is just one more off key performance/flop single/bad picture of her crooked nose from workin at your neighborhood Mc Donalds . “Would you like fries with that ?”

  39. Sherry July 26, 2011

    Instead of tweeting disrespectful comments and pics, Keri needs to work on making a cd that is worth something besides one or two good songs. This is tacky and disgusting. People lost someone they love from fans, friends and family alike. It’s nothing to joke about. She always run her damn hypocritical. The same bish that bragged “i don’t get sexed up in videos” yet she popped her cooch all over the place. Keri is just another songwriter/producer in the likes of Dream, Sean Garrett, etc. that got arrogant and felt because she made hits for Brit, Pussycat Dolls she can be on some upper echelon of artists. She believed Timbaland’s hype of her being so great. At least Amy had material that’s classic. This chick was promo’d all over the place and still went nowhere. No wonder people don’t like her.

  40. lol July 26, 2011

    Sherry
    PREACH!

  41. Curious C July 26, 2011

    Keri is a D-lister who is always running her mouth about A-listers or artists that are wayyyy out of her league, lane, universe. She will NEVER be great!

    I know she didn’t mean to, because Keri is a nice person, but she shouldn’t have posted this. It’s direspectful.

  44. tye July 30, 2011
