No charges against Winehouse for attack
British police said they have not received any complaints of assault after Amy Winehouse punched a fan during her show at the Glastonbury Festival on Saturday.
Winehouse threw a punch at a fan Saturday night after someone tried to grab her beehive hair.
Winehouse swung and elbowed at a fan in front of the stage then continued singing.
Winehouse sang for an hour in her first full British show in seven months.
"The 'lashing out' was when someone tried to grab her hair and she reacted," her spokesman said.
But footage of the incident did not clearly show what provoked her lung.
She jumped down into the security pit for the last two songs, separated from the fans by a crush barrier.
"Thanks for your support," she told them earlier, as she performed tracks such as Cupid, Rehab and Tears Dry on Their Own.
"I really enjoyed it - I've never seen her live before and I thought it was really good," said one fan, 18-year-old Lucinda Whitehead.
