    Amy Winehouse Faces No Action Following Glastonbury 'Punch'

    Amy Winehouse will not face action after she lashed out at a fan during her performance at last weekend's Glastonbury Festival.

    Police say they have received no complaint over the incident, which happened when the singer went to greet members of the audience during a rendition of 'Rehab'.

    Organisers of the festival have defended the star, saying that she retaliated after somebody touched her body.


    Winehouse's performance on the Pyramid Stage was watched by over 75,000 fans and was the first time in over half a year that the singer had played a full set in the UK.

    On Friday (June 27th) she warmed up for the event by playing a two song set on behalf of Nelson Mandela in London's Hyde Park.

    After both performances the singer returned to the London Clinic in Marylebone where she is currently being treated for traces of the lung disease emphysema.

    • I was more concerned with the entertainment-free, dreary, slurring excuse for a performance. I am not even ahuge Jay-z fan but he showed her what a show is all about. The fact that celeb-obsessed front row fans go mental for a singer with so much talent but so little application or regard for the art is similarly disheartening. The fact that her performance has had so little criticism amazes me-maybe everyone just wants to be nice??

    • Could not agree more. Amy is an awesome talent but it’s such a shame to see her constantly put in a negative light. Maybe that’’s the media, but her behavour (and appearance!!!) of late is nothing short of disturbing. As for Jay-Z, he was amazing. Saw him at Wembley a couple of years ago and he was dreadful... looks like a little fire in the belly is what’’s needed with this fella. Awesome. Celeb-obsessed fans - Don’’t you
