Amy Winehouse Skips French Festival Due To Illness

Amy Winehouse has been forced to pull out of a French festival hours before she was due to take the stage.

The singer, who had been one of the main draws ahead of this year’s Rock En Seine in Paris, fell unwell at her home in London.

Winehouse did not need hospital treatment but was unable to make the journey, her spokesman confirmed.

In June, it emerged that the singer was suffering from traces of the lung disease emphysema after collapsing at her home.

She was hospitalised again last month after suffering a reaction to medication.

The singer, who is understood to be recording her third album, is due to headline Bestival on the Isle of Wight next weekend.

The singer’s last performance came at the recent V Festival. You can see pictures below.
