It comes to something when the pin-up girl tattooed on your arm looks better turned out than you do.
Even by her own standards, Amy Winehouse appeared underdressed and dishevelled as she cut a tragic figure stumbling through a Camden pub crawl.
Although she celebrates her 25th birthday tomorrow, the singer's hollow cheeks and tangled mass of hair extensions made her look much older.
She arrived two hours late for a performance at the Snakehips session alongside DJ Bioux at her local pub, The Monarch, in North London on Thursday night.
The organisers were forced to announce: 'Miss Winehouse is sorry she will be late.'
But this did little to appease an already angry audience.
Mess: Amy Winehouse looked dishevelled as she walked through London's Camden last night
A source revealed: 'The pub was packed at first, until people started to get restless. Many decided to leave before Amy arrived, which left the pub looking quite empty.
After singing just two songs, she left the stage, muttering to the disgruntled crowd: 'Thanks for coming down. Much obliged.'
She appeared distracted throughout the brief set as she chatted to her close pal, musician Alex Wood.
Wreck: Amy headed home from the Monarch pub at 3.30am
The troubled star, who has fought an addiction to heroin and crack cocaine for more than a year, is acquiring something of a reputation for disappointing her fans.
Last week she was booed at a festival after she struggled to finish her set.
Winehouse is also facing a legal challenge after not turning up to the Rock En Seine festival in Paris last month.
Ravaged: Amy arrived two hours late for her DJ set
Last week the Rehab singer emerged from her North London bolthole to appear at Bestival on the Isle of Wight - but her shambolic performance was booed by fans.
Her disappointing show came as little surprise considering she'd pre-ordered an incredible 48 bottles of Jack Daniel's whisky.
It has been a disastrous year for the once hugely successful star.
In June she was given the stark warning by doctors to 'quit drugs or die' and at the end of that month she was diagnosed with the early stages of the lung disease emphysema.
Unsteady: The singer struggled to stay upright
However as soon as she left the clinic, the 24-year-old star was seen smoking a cigarette.
In April 2008 she was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man on a night out.
She was investigated by police, although not charged, after a tabloid newspaper published a video that appeared to show her smoking crack cocaine in January.
Her husband Blake Fielder-Civil was also sentenced to 27 months in jail for assault and obstructing justice in July.
Fielder-Civil admitted beating up pub manager James King in a fight in 2006 and then offered him a bribe of £200,000 to keep quiet about it.
