Amy Winehouse cancels US gig following assault charge

Singer will make comeback in London in May

Amy Winehouse returned from St Lucia after a 71 day holiday

Amy Winehouse has pulled out of a US concert – days after she was charged with assault.

The singer was due to play a set at the Coachella Music Festival in California in April.

But her rep Chris Goodman confirms she's had to cancel the gig.

‘She is not appearing at Coachella this year in the light of current legal issues,’ he tells People.

Amy, 25, is accused of lashing out at a fan at The End Of The Summer ball in September 2008.

She is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 17 March.

Amy will make her live comeback in the UK at the Island 50 Festival at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire on 31 May.
