The family of late jazz soul stirrer Amy Winehouse will be the first guests to appear on Anderson Cooper’s new self-titled daytime talk show, Anderson.

Sunday night’s MTV Video Music Awards will likely be the usual mix of fun, froth and controversy, but there will be at least one poignant moment when the show pays tribute to the late Amy Winehouse.

Amy Winehouse is making a musical impact beyond the grave.
The late singer’s award-winning 2006 blockbuster — Back to Black — has overtaken James Blunt’s 2005 debut as the best-selling album of the century in the UK, the British Charts Company said Wednesday. Winehouse’s Back To Black, which featured the hits “Rehab,” “Me & Mr. Jones,” and “Tears Dry on Their Own,” has now sold 3,259,100 copies, according to figures released this week. By comparison, Blunt’s Back To Bedlam has sold 3,241,118 copies.
