Amy Winehouse Probed Over Panto 'Attack'

Claims that singer Amy Winehouse lashed out at a theatre manager after delivering a stream of abuse at a panto are being investigated, police have confirmed.

The star is said to have disrupted a performance of Cinderella on Saturday night, heckling a cast which included TV personalities Anthea Turner and Bobby Davro.

Winehouse reportedly shocked children and parents by shouting "He's f****** behind you" during the performance and yelling out "F****** Cinders, Prince Charming, marry me".

Refusing to sit down, she also branded the Ugly Sisters "bitches", according to the Sun. She is later alleged to have physically attacked a member of staff at the theatre in Milton Keynes, Bucks.

The Sun says she launched herself at front-of-house manager, Richard Pound, allegedly pulling his hair, punching him and kicking him between the legs.

A spokesman for Thames Valley Police confirmed police attended to the theatre on Saturday night.

"Officers were called to Milton Keynes Theatre in Marlborough Gate following reports that a 27-year-old man had been assaulted," he said. "No arrests have been made and the incident is being investigated."

Winehouse is understood to have attended the show to see her friend Anthony Kavanagh, a reality TV star standing in as Prince Charming for regular Ben Adams, of boyband A1.
