Wonky Winehouse Punches Fan At Glasto

June 30, 2008
Wonky Winehouse Punches Fan At GlastoA huge crowd of all ages gathered in front of Glastonbury’s famous pyramid stage last night to see Amy Winehouse perform, which culminated in her punching a fan in the front row.

The troubled singer, who is suffering from emphysema and suspected lung disease, looked frail and distinctly orange-tinged as she took to the stage, teetering on heels in a tiny black sequinned dress.

She is being constantly monitored by two doctors, and was only allowed out of hospital to rehearse and perform following her collapse two weeks ago.

The ensuing performance was a good indication as to her state of health. While favourites ‘Back to Black’ and ‘Rehab’ were executed adequately, Winehouse’s disappointing stage act was largely incomprehensible.

The singer stumbled and slurred, taking time between songs to ramble about the impending release of husband Blake from prison, which garnered jeering from the audience.

At one point Winehouse came down from the stage and attacked a front row onlooker, throwing several punches before the bouncers gently guided her away. Rumour has in that a waiting ambulance whisked the singer straight back to hospital after her set.

Many of the crowd expressed their disappointment after the show, with several confessing they attended the set “just in case it is the last time Amy ever plays live.”
