The guy, one James Gostelow, has denied that he tried to grab Winehouse's hair before she lashed out at him. He told the Beeb: "I saw a hat being thrown from behind me and it hit Amy's beehive. She looked down, saw me looking up, and her elbow went for me. She caught my forehead, then someone may have shouted something from the back, which is when she went in again".

As previously reported, there have been mixed opinions about Winehouse's Glasto performance, which had some highlights but also some tedious ramblings and Blake Fielder-Civil references that garnered a few boos from the crowd. Gostelow has confirmed he doesn't plan to make any official complaint about Winehouse elbowing him in the face.
