Winehouse pulls Stones gig

Amy Winehouse is scheduled to play at V Festival
Amy Winehouse has reportedly pulled out of a gig supporting the Rolling Stones in Germany.
According to the Daily Mirror, which interviewed the singer in the Sunday edition of the paper, Winehouse has pulled out of the Dusseldorf gig due to her health scare.
The star had a spell in hospital last week and her doctors are believed to have been concerned at the prospect of her flying to Germany for the show.
She told the Sunday Mirror: "Things have got to change, I have to sort myself out. I never want to feel that way again. But I'm OK. Really."
In comments made to another Sunday paper, the News of the World, Winehouse insisted that she would be "back at work on Monday".
However the latest reports of tonight's cancellation have cast doubt over her appearance at this weekend's V Festival.
The singer has been hitting the headlines for a number of months and has struggled with alcohol-related problems in recent weeks.
Commentators have suggested her weight loss is striking and a number of no-shows and cancellations have led to her family and that of her husband Blake Fielder having talks about her condition.
