St. Lucia thanks Winehouse for publicity's impact
January 15, 2009 CASTRIES, St. Lucia (AP) — St. Lucia’s tourism chief is praising Amy Winehouse for bringing publicity to the Caribbean island.
Local media have closely covered the British singer’s presence since she arrived in December, accusing her of everything from tossing a drink on a tourist to throwing up at a breakfast buffet.
But Tourism Minister Allen Chastanet says every picture shows Winehouse smiling or interacting with the locals, and the overall impact has been positive.
Chastanet told a TV station Thursday that the government sent her a gift basket of local products.
In a competitive world, he said, “any edge that you can get, you hang on to it.”
Winehouse’s rocky marriage and problems with drugs and police have been widely publicized.
Bob Marley's gone, but the Wailers boogie on, straight to the BCPA
January 15, 2009 Elan (A-lahn): “vigorous spirit or enthusiasm.” — Webster … Elan Atias (A-lahn a-TIE-us): “vigorous, spirited, enthusiastic lead singer of The Wailers, coming Jan. 22 to the Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts’ Underground Series.” — GO!
Pardon our presumption with the home-grown second definition there.
But after spending some time on the other end of a phone line with Elan (goes by his first name professionally, and will be referred to by same onward), presumption has very little to do with it.
