Amy Winehouse' record label has confirmed that the troubled soul singer has in fact been admitted to a rehabilitation facility.

According to CNN, the British singer was admitted into a treatment facility yesterday (January 24) as a result of her battle with substance abuse. The singer's record label, Universal Music Group, released a written statement verifying Winehouse' status as a rehab patient and says that they fully support her during this tumultuous time.

"Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors," the label said in the statement. "She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction and prepare for her planned appearance at the Grammy Awards. ... Amy entered the facility by mutual agreement and continues to receive the full support of all concerned."

The statement also revealed that Winehouse was forced to cancel a scheduled appearance at an awards show in France on account of her checking into the facility.

The singer, who is nominated for six Grammys, may have entered the treatment program as a result of U.S. authorities being alarmed at her reported drug addiction. The singer was questionable to appear at this year's ceremony due to required drug testing in order to obtain a passport.

"Amy's been told she needs to pass a drug test before she can get a visa," a source told Britain paper The Sun. "She is doing much better and has cut down her drug use but is still isn't clean."

Many of the people around Winehouse hope that her admittance into rehab will offer the stability that she needs. The singer has had various high profile public incidents including being arrested last December and most recently having a video released by The Sun that allegedly shows the singer smoking what appears to be crack cocaine in a glass pipe.

But despite the singer's recent mishaps, Universal seems to be encouraged that the singer can make a full recovery and that she will continue to create quality music for her fans.

"Amy is the most talented and important musical artist of her generation and has made huge strides on her road to recovery," the record label's statement said. "Universal Music Group wants nothing more than to see her take the time she needs to come back to full health and fulfill her incredible potential with the label."

The length of Winehouse' scheduled stint in rehabilitation is unknown.
