Amy Winehouse's father has denied reports that a hologram version of Amy Winehouse is to be created for a world tour.
It was reported yesterday by The Sun and other publications that billionaire digital media entrepeneur Alki David planned to create a hologram version of the singer, which would embark on a world tour.
David recently purchased a patent for the 3D computer technology used to create the famous Tupac hologram which appeared at Coachella in 2012, and has since launched a company called Hologram USA.

Winehouse's father has since taken to Twitter to deny the rumours though, saying: "No truth in the Hologram story. Utter rubbish as usual. Mitch."
After public battles with alcohol and drugs, Winehouse died in 2011 at the age of 27 as a result of accidental alcohol poisoning. She released two albums before her death, and a third, which contained unreleased songs and demos, was released posthumously in December 2011.
Winehouse's father owns the copyright to his daughter's likeness, so without his permission, a hologram tour will certainly not be happening.
