Singer Amy Winehouse has been charged with assault after allegedly attacking a theatre manager at a pantomime.
Ms Winehouse was in the audience for Cinderella at Milton Keynes Theatre on Saturday, watching an all-star cast including Mickey Rooney, Anthea Turner and Bobby Davro.
But she was reported to have entered the pantomime spirit a little too enthusiastically, repeatedly shouting out "He's f***ing behind you!" during the performance. The Sun newspaper said that she also branded the Ugly Sisters "bitches".
Thames Valley police launched an investigation after the front-of-house manager, Richard Pound, complained that the Back to Black star had pulled his hair, punched him and kicked him when he asked her to move seats.
They confirmed today that Ms Winehouse was arrested after she attended Milton Keynes police station in Buckinghamshire voluntarily with her legal adviser at 1.15pm.
The 26-year-old, from Hertfordshire, was charged under the name Amy Civil with a public order offence and common assault following the incident on Saturday night.
