Amy Winehouse hologram 'in the works'

Amy Winehouse will "finally tour the world" as a hologram, it has been claimed.

The Rehab singer died at the age of 27 in 2011, and fans are still mourning the loss of their favourite musician.

But apparently billionaire Alki David is planning to resurrect Amy in 3D, using the exact same technology employed to bring late rapper Tupac Shakur onstage at Coachella in California two years ago.

"The plan is that Amy will finally tour the world after failing to do so when she was alive," a source told British newspaper The Sun.

"With an orchestra and her hologram, she can take to the stage and fans can see her perform her legendary hits. The idea is in its early stages but it's hoped that Amy's dad Mitch will maybe join her and do the introductions."

It appears her father Mitch would love to honour his daughter's memory in this way.

He previously gave his verbal support to a project which would bring Amy back to life.

"The most important thing to Amy was the music and I'm sure a lot of people would like to hear her sing again," Mitch told the publication in the past.

"It depends on what Amy's fans want as a way to keep her memory alive.

"If it's a book, an album or a hologram, then so be it."
