Mary J. Blige has revealed she wants to help Amy Winehouse through her drug problems. The Grammy-award winning singer is a huge fan of the 'Back to Black' star and has revealed she will be there for her if she is ever in need of someone to talk to.
She said: "I have things to say to Amy Winehouse - loving things and things she will be able to relate to."
However, the 37-year-old R&B diva admits Amy - who was recently filmed smoking what appeared to be crack cocaine - is not quite ready to seek professional help for her drug addictions.
She added: "I don't really think she can hear me right now, because when I was in a situation like she was in I couldn't hear people either."
The 'Family Affair' singer says she only realized she needed to get help after seeing the effect drugs had had on her body.
She said: "I did drugs, I did a lot. I did things, not just weed, but beyond that. I'm too strong to get hooked on anything now but at that point I think I was hooked.
"Then one day I saw my reflection and I said to myself, 'Gosh, I look bad.' That's when I really knew I needed help."
Mary's new single, 'Just Fine', is out on January 28.
