Amy Winehouse Round-Up: Happy Birthday To You

You’d be forgiven, if you were a close personal friend of Amy Winehouse, for expecting her to have become somewhat tardy when it came to personal engagements and dates of late – you know, giving you Christmas presents in August and organising Easter egg hunts for early January – but surely it’s a worrying sign when Winegums is running late even for her own birthday party? Because, you know, surprise surprise, that’s what she’s been up to!

She arrived two hours late for a performance at her local pub, The Monarch, in north London on Thursday night.

The organisers were forced to announce, “Miss Winehouse is sorry she will be late.”

But this did little to appease an already angry audience. A source revealed, “The pub was packed at first, until people started to get restless.

“Many decided to leave before Amy arrived, which left the pub looking quite empty.”

It’s okay, though, because Amy started singing Happy Birthday with a bunch of chairs stacked on tables that she thought were her family and friends, before dancing a jig on the pool table and cutting the “birthday cake” (which was actually a taxi driver). A great night was had by all!
