Amy Winehouse Arrested -- Allegedly "Perverts Justice"

Posted Dec 18th 2007 1:31PM by TMZ Staff

UPDATE: Amy's been released, we're told, pending "further investigation." She's due back at the police station for more questioning in early March.

Yes yes yes! Singer Amy Winehouse has been arrested on suspicion of "perverting the course of justice" -- the UK's version of interfering with a police investigation.

TMZ has confirmed that the arrest was made "by appointment" in London today.

Last month, Winehouse's husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, was arrested for the same thing -- related to the case of an alleged assault on a bartender last June.

Winehouse recently canceled her UK tour, supposedly because she was too upset over the arrest of Mr. Winehouse.

Someone, anyone ... please help!

Her rep confirmed that the singer has been arrested, but explained that this is common practice in the UK. There a person is technically arrested when they are brought in for questioning, but Winehouse has not been charged with anything. This was pre-arranged.

46. Well as I suspected Amy has aparently now been relised, The Police did not have enough evidence to arrest her with out her turning up voluntarily for questioning. So they odviously don't have enough evidence to charge her at this stage. BBC news reported the reliese at 10pm UK time

47.

He's not worth it, Amy.

He never was.

Engage what's left of your brain and get on with getting your act cleaned up.

48. She should celebrate her release with a big bag of blow and a bottle of vodka.

49. She is on Bail until March 8th that does not look like the issue with her Hubby will be resolved before then! I could be wrong but there does not seem to be any bail conditions so really it's just a case of sitting and waiting. 3 months on Bail is a pretty long time . Does not look like the Police have much evidence at all not that im in any way clued up on crminal law.

Rik why does it seem to be so difficult for you to grasp that people from all over the world have access to the internet and TMZ! America is not the world it is mearly a country and outside of that country you have other countries and we all have the internet. Stop being so narrow minded. It is you who is now showing ignorance not me mearly because i have difficulty spelling. Out of all the places in the world why would i "claim" to be from the UK when i could be any one from any were. I mean it's getting silly now sherlock holms had nothing on you!

50. It's a shame that such a talent will be wasted (no pun intended) if this young woman does not get some help. Although she is in the public eye, no one seems to really give a damn about her. I feel for her poor mother, who is watching her daughter destroy herself. Miss Winehouse could be a major contributor to the music industry, given proper intervention.
