An onlooker said: "Everybody started booing, heckling and stamping their feet when they heard she wasn’t returning to the stage.

"The crowd at G-A-Y is normally really up for it and friendly, but I’ve never seen them so angry before.

"To make matters worse, everybody had been waiting until 1.45am for her to eventually come on."

Promoter Jeremy Joseph said he hoped they wouldn’t have the same problems with Jason Donovan, who is appearing this weekend.

"We’re going to make sure there’s two buckets on the side of the stage, just in case," he added.

Pete to duet with Amy - Dec 6 2006

It’s a match made in rock and roll heaven - Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse are to collaborate on a new track.

Soulful Amy, 23, has confirmed they will write a song together, according to the Daily Star.

They have more in common than their musical talents - both hang out in the same North London watering holes, like their booze, and adore old jazz singers.

Amy explains: "Pete wanted to do a Billie Holiday cover and I was like, ’No, let’s write something together’.

"I like writing songs. He’s an amazing songwriter and I’d love to be able to say I wrote a song with Pete Doherty."

A source added: "Pete and Amy have formed a bit of a mutual appreciation society.

"It’s early stages and they’re still hammering out what label the new material will come out on.

"But, time permitting, they’ll be in the studio early next year."

Biography

Amy Winehouse hails from Osidge Lane, Southgate, although she currently lives in Camden. She is being feted as the new big thing with a voice likened to soul artists of the caliber of American soul queen Erykah Badu.

Amy and her brother Alex were brought up by her mum and grandmother, and fondly remembers ’Growing up in East Finchley was cool.’ She started playing guitar at 12 and listening to jazz. Her acceptance into the prestigious Sylvia Young Theatre School seemed to spell big things for Amy, although she was expelled at 15, apparently for getting her nose pierced. She carried on her studies at an all girls school in Mill Hill, which she hated as there were no fella’s there.

Amy made appearances with the Youth Jazz Orchestra, produced a demo tape of jazz covers that was picked up by Universal/Island Records, and they signed her almost immediately. She released her album Frank in October 2003 and supported Jamie Callum on his national tour. Amy then went on to be nominated for two Brit Awards, British Female Solo Artist and Best Urban Artist. Not bad for a girl of 20!
