Soul singer Amy Winehouse, who this week appeared in video footage allegedly showing her smoking crack cocaine, has entered a rehab clinic, her record company said on Thursday.
The troubled 24-year-old, who has been dogged by frequent suggestions of drug taking in recent months, also cancelled a scheduled performance at an awards ceremony in France this Saturday, record company Universal Music Group said.
"Amy Winehouse's planned appearance at the NRJ Awards in France on Saturday has been cancelled as the artist has entered a rehabilitation clinic," the company said in a statement.
"Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors.
"She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction and prepare for her planned appearance at the Grammy Awards."
Winehouse is one of the country's top-selling singers, winning critical and commercial success with her album "Back to Black", which garnered six Grammy nominations in December.
The 2006 album has sold nearly five million copies worldwide, including 1.3 million in the United States.
Universal called her "the most talented and important musical artist of her generation" who had already "made huge strides on her road to recovery".
One of her most famous songs is called "Rehab", which opens with the lyrics: "They tried to make me go to rehab, I said 'no, no, no'."
She attended rehab clinics at least twice in 2007, according to media, but checked out on both occasions before her treatment was completed.

Troubled singer Amy Winehouse has vowed to follow the advice of her hit song Rehab and never go back to a treatment facility, despite her recent alleged drug problems.
The 23-year-old is currently taking time out of her pop career to focus on "health issues" following her hospitalisation last month (Aug07) after three days of hard-partying.
But, during a surprise appearance at Tuesday (04Sep07) night’s Mercury Music Prize awards ceremony in London, Winehouse declared she has no intention of seeking expert medical treatment to combat addiction again.
Speaking to British newspaper the Daily Mirror, she said, "I’m of the school of thought where, if you can’t sort something out for yourself, no one can help you. Rehab is great for some people but not others." She added, "Normal people spend time thinking, ‘What am I going to do with my life?’ I spend my time drinking."

Amy Winehouse is currently on holiday in St Lucia, after shunning rehab once more.
After her in-laws' calls for the public to boycott her records until she recovers from her drug problems, and her father Mitch Winehouse responded by voicing concerns that the two families were "pulling in different directions" in regards to Winehouse's problems, the couple have chosen to relax in the Carribean rather than continue drug rehab.
Winehouse and her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, had previously been admitted to a private rehab centre on an island off the Essex coast. They have not announced how long they plan to spend on holiday yet or if they plan to continue their rehab course.
