But Amy Winehouse finally returned to the limelight yesterday with two impromptu appearances at V Festival
Not that anyone was expecting an onstage appearance from the notoriously unpredictable chanteuse.
This even seemed to include the security guards who attempted to lure Amy out of the limelight after she gatecrashed Pete Doherty's performance.

The singer had appeared in the wings mid-set before running on stage and kissing Doherty, then running and hiding behind a drum.
Security appeared to ask her to move but she remained put until Doherty dedicated a song to her.
She grabbed the grabbed the microphone and called to the crowd repeatedly: 'Ladies and gentlemen, Mr Peter Doherty.'
Towards the end of the set she kissed the singer on the mouth and shortly afterwards they ran off stage together arm-in-arm.
