Amy Winehouse

     *When she wasn't punching fans in the crowd, British soul singer Amy Winehouse was hurling insults at Kanye West during her set at England's Glastonbury Festival on Saturday.

      The "Rehab" singer was in the midst of praising the presence of Glastonbury's headlining act, Jay-Z, when she told the crowd: “Imagine if it was a c**t like Kanye West- 'C**ts like Kanye' should be his next album title!”

      MTV News went straight to Jay-Z, the head of Kanye's label, for a reaction.

       “She said something about Kanye late on (in her set) but I didn’t hear it and I don’t agree with it. He’s my brother and the biggest artist on Roc-a-fella (records) right now," said Jay.  “I guess I should hook them up because he’s a great guy too. I don’t know what the problem is- I don’t know where that (comment) came from.”

       Winehouse, recently hospitalized for possible emphysema, had already made headlines over the weekend for swinging on an audience member who either grabbed her breast, per some reports; or said something ill about her jailed husband Blake Fielder Civil, according to other accounts.
