Amy Winehouse was hospitalized today after fainting at her London home, the BBC reports. Winehouse's assistant caught her before she fell, and, though she "quickly recovered," the singer's father took her to hospital "as a precaution," says her spokesman. Doctors aren't sure what caused the fainting, and may keep her overnight for further observation. (More Amy Winehouse stories.)
