Amy Winehouse surprised guests at a fundraising dinner for the charity Rays Of Sunshine, when she appeared to serenade them, completely unannounced. A guest at the bash at Wrotham Park, near Amy’s London home, said: “None of us could believe it. You always read negative stories about her and her wild behavior but she couldn’t have been nicer. Her performance really made the evening.”
Rays of Sunshine Children’s Charity helps grant the wishes of children who are living with serious or life-threatening illnesses between the ages of three and 18 who live in the UK.
Amy is not the first celebrity to have made a surprise visit to help ill children. In November 2007, Johnny Depp spent four hours at London’s Great Ormond Street hospital reading bedtime stories to patients dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow after having his Pirates of the Caribbean costume flown over from Los Angeles. The actor also donated $2 million to the hospital last January after helping to save his daughter’s life following treatment after her kidneys failed.
