Wedding Bells for Winehouse
She may be “no good,” but Amy Winehouse wants what the good girls want: a traditional Jewish wedding. According to the Sunday Mirror, the tattooed British songstress with the famed bad-girl persona wants to get hitched under a chupah, by a rabbi.
Her fiance, Blake Fielder-Civil, is allegedly planning to convert (no word yet on the bris, but one assumes that the British tabloids will let us know as soon as there is).
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
