Amy Winehouse Struggles With Stormy Weather, Audience

The concert was billed as a comeback for Amy Winehouse, but Mother Nature and Amy's leaky pipes stopped the show in St. Lucia. After months spent vacationing on the Caribbean island, Ms. Winehouse was to showcase new material at the St. Lucia Jazz Festival on Friday, but torrential rains flooded the stage. The songstress cut the show short when she was booed for her lackluster performance. She forgot the words, struggled with balance, cursed the jeering crowd and ultimately abandoned the concert mid-way through. Magical it wasn't.

Last week the problem was too little water, when she was hospitalized for dehydration. In a statement released after the concert, a spokesperson continued to stress that weather was the primary culprit:

"Amy is very disappointed t Lucia has been wonderful to her and its people have welcomed her with open arms, but circumstances beyond anyone's control meant that this special show did not go as planned."
