BRITISH singer Amy Winehouse has been retired by her manager and won’t be appearing on stage again “for years.”

Ray Cosbert finally laid down the law after she sneaked a stash of alcohol backstage before embarrassing herself in Belgrade, Serbia, on the weekend.

Cosbert has always argued it’s not his place to tell Winehouse how to live her life, but for the sake of her health he’s stepped in and retired her from performing “indefinitely”, The Sun reports.

All remaining 11 European tour dates were cancelled after the Serbian concert and Winehouse is now facing another long period in rehab.

“It has been hard for Ray to watch her get into trouble over the years,” a source said.

“There’s only so much he can do – but enough’s enough.

“She’s going away and this time it could be for years.”

Winehouse’s career has been wrecked by addiction to drugs and alcohol since 1997 – one year after her Back to Black album won her five Grammy Awards and made her a millionaire.
