BORIS Johnson wants to form an unlikely double act… with troubled singer Amy Winehouse.
The London mayoral candidate wants to sign Winehouse up for his campaign after he was snubbed by Sir Elton John, who has opted to support the Tory MP's Lib Dem rival, Brian Paddick.
Johnson told London radio station LBC 97.3 FM: “I'm very disappointed by this, by the way, because Elton and David Furnish send us a Christmas card every year.
“I couldn't believe it when he suddenly announced that he was backing ex-commander Paddick. I couldn't believe it. Anyway, there you go. Elton and I are going to have to see what's going on.
"I'd love to get Amy Winehouse. I think she'd be fantastic.'
He said that Winehouse could record a new version of her hit single Rehab: “Ken Livingstone - no, no, no.”
