Russell Brand's Heartfelt Tribute To Amy Winehouse (PHOTOS)

Russell Brand was friends with Amy Winehouse for years. He is usually known for his incredible sense of humor, in fact, we hardly ever know when he's serious or not. But sadly, in wake of Amy Winehouse's tragic death, Russell took to his personal website to pay tribute to Amy who is also from his native England. Check out his heartfelt tribute below.

When you love someone who suffers from the disease of addiction you await the phone call. There will be a phone call. The sincere hope is that the call will be from the addict themselves, telling you they’ve had enough, that they’re ready to stop, ready to try something new. Of course though, you fear the other call, the sad nocturnal chime from a friend or relative telling you it’s too late, she’s gone.

Frustratingly it’s not a call you can ever make it must be received. It is impossible to intervene.
