Back to court
Wed, 20/01/2010 - 12:50 by Harry Bow

Following a trip to the panto where she called Cinderella's stepsister a bitch and punched the theatre manager, Amy Winehouse pleaded guilty to assault in court this morning.

This Amy Winehouse assault business happened in the midst of our pre-Christmas haze, so we're only really just getting to grips with the story now (Mickey Rourke and Bobby Davro were in panto together and we missed it?!). We think someone mentioned the incident before, but we assumed they were talking about a Viz sketch...

The singer was arrested on 23 December after getting into the swing of the season, heckling 'he's fucking behind you' and calling the ugly sister 'bitches' before pounding the manager who asked her to swap seats at the Milton Keynes theatre.

Having made the most of the surplus supply of fake tan left over whilst Alex Reid is in the CBB house, the 26-year-old singer pleaded guilty to common assault and disorder at Milton Keynes Magistrates' Court before she was given a two year conditional discharge and ordered to pay £85 in costs and £100 in compensation to the rather aptly named Mr Pound, the theatre's front-of-house manager.

District judge Peter Crabtree told her:

"Mr Pound is a person whose job involves interaction with the public.

"If he's assaulted he deserves the court's protection.

"In this case it's obvious that alcohol played its part."

"It may be harder than a fine because you have now got to stay on the straight and narrow for the next two years."

We give her until the end of the week.

  • That's who I was trying to think off, it nearly got as far as bothering me for a minute.

  • Bet she still would have fucking got away with it.

    What have cunts like her & Doherty got to do to get banged up ? I honestly think they could dig up the Queen Mother, attach strings to her corpse & use it as the third member of some unholy musical trio and still get off with a community service order & a "don't be so silly again".

    Pair of shitty, disease infested rat-cunts.

  • Agreed, this is surely the perfect story for Officer Dibble to comment on. His years of experience on the force dealing with criminal such as Miss Shitehouse will be invaluable in providing an insight into this case.

  • I've always wondered, if being good is being "on the straight and narrow", then is being bad being "on the wide and wobbly"? I asked my dad that when I was about 10 and have never received an answer.
