Ms Winehouse had a mixed response from the Glasto crowd, who enjoyed her songs but were less impressed by her ramblings between them, and who predictably booed a bit when that Blake Fielder Civil chap's name was brought up. Responding to the booing, Winehouse reportedly said: "Don't boo. I'll find your phone and ring your mum and tell them about your bad manners. Manners cost you nothing".

Another notable moment of Winehouse's Glasto set was her reported remark relating to Mr Kanye West. Noting that her set preceded Jay-Z's headline appearance, she reportedly changed tHE lyrics of one song to say "At least I'm not opening for a cunt like Kanye". Quite what Winehouse has against Mr West isn't clear, though she may have been referring to his previously reported badly received set at the US's Bonnaroo festival. Whatever, her remark has not gone unnoticed in the West camp, with Kanye writing on his blog this weekend: "This Just In...Amy Winehouse Hates Me!!! Now I've Really Made It!!! LOL!!!!"

Elsewhere in Amy news, and before all of that, Winehouse revealed in an interview with Rolling Stone that her much-publicised destructive lifestyle is down to boredom while hubby Fielder-Civil is in prison. She told the magazine: "To be honest, my husband's away, I'm bored, I'm young. I felt like there was nothing to live for. It's just been a low ebb".

She also said that she doesn't feel that she has been to rehab, even though she has, actually. What I think she was trying to say is that her heart wasn't in it, so it wasn't much use. She said: "I've never been to rehab, I mean, done it properly. I'm young, and I'm in love, and I get my nuts off sometimes. But it's never been like, 'Amy, get your life together'".

Finally from the Winehouse file, the singer has reportedly turned down a very lucrative offer to write her autobiography because she doesn't feel she's old enough to begin writing her life story. I wish more celebrities would realise that. A source told the Daily Star, "Amy's been battling off book deals for over a year, but the latest offer would have earned her millions but she thought the idea was ludicrous and turned it down outright. Firstly, she feels she's far too young at 24 and secondly, when she does get round to publishing her life story, she wants to write it herself. She doesn't need a ghost writer".
