The Rehab singer sang to the 80,000 strong crowd at Scotland’s T in the Park festival on Sunday while swigging alcohol and smoking.
It came just hours after her dad Mitch made an emotional plea on British TV, urging those close to his daughter to stop providing her with drugs and cigarettes. went on to ask the singer to quit tobacco because of “a small amount of emphysema in her lungs”. He also warned her death would not come from drugs, but from smoking, and told her it would be “a long, slow, painful death” in a bid to shock her into quitting all her addictions. He says, “I want people to understand – even if they give her one cigarette they’re causing her harm. “She has a small amount of emphysema in the top of her lungs. It’s negligible, but it could lead to something a lot more serious.”
Mitch, has reportedly fallen ill himself trying to cope with his wayward daughter’s problems. The stress of his daughter’s wayward lifestyle has caused him to suffer panic attacks, leading him to collapse at his London home last week.
