Singer Begs Fans to Send Jailed Husband Flowers

British singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse, 24, best-known for her 2006 hit single, "Rehab," is adding a new title to her repertoire: floral advocate.

The eccentric singer married Blake Civil-Fielder, 25, in May, and since their union, the duo has made headlines worldwide about their arrests, stints in rehabilitation facilities, and now their gifting of flowers.

Civil-Fielder is now in jail (since early November) because of his alleged fight with a bartender and the subsequent charges of conspiring "with the alleged victim of the assault, persuading him to withdraw as a witness at the trial," according to The Associated Press.

Earlier this week while on tour, Winehouse addressed fans at her concert and said: "I'm going to send him a bouquet of flowers. And I want everyone here to send Blake a red rose," according to celebrity reports. She then gave the audience his address at prison; Civil-Fielder is slated to be released on Friday, Nov. 23.
