Amy Winehouse will perform at Nelson Mandela gig and Glastonbury

Rehab singer is in rehearsals to prepare for weekend shows

Amy Winehouse is straight to work after leaving hospital

Amy Winehouse is already back at work – just 24 hours after being released from hospital.

The singer hopes to be able to perform at Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday concert on Friday and Glastonbury at the weekend.

And her dad Mitch is confident she'll be well enough.

‘The doctors have said that, medically, there isn’t any reason why she can’t do Glastonbury,’ he says.

Amy, 24, was rushed to The London Clinic last week after collapsing at her home in Camden, north London.

She was diagnosed with the early signs of emphysema.

Her rep told BBC Entertainment that although it's likely she will perform this weekend, Amy is still waiting for the final 'sign-off' from doctors.
