Amy Winehouse will return to the V Festival later, a year after cancelling her appearance at the event because of a suspected drugs overdose.

The singer joins a host of acts, including The Verve and Kings of Leon, who will perform at the festival, which takes place in Chelmsford and Staffordshire.

Other bands due to perform include Muse, Duffy and Kaiser Chiefs.

As previously reported on Gigwise, Winehouse emerged from two weeks in hiding on Thursday night (August 14th) and was mobbed by paparazzi in London.
