Amy Winehouse was nearly an hour late on stage at a UK music festival because she refused to get her feet wet.
The 24-year-old singer arrived 45 minutes late for her performance at Bestival on Saturday (06.09.08) - held on the Isle of Wight - because she didn’t want to walk on the soaked grass.
A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: 'Amy arrived at 9pm and refused to get out of the car. She screeched, 'I’m not standing in that f***ing mud until somebody dries the grass.’ '

I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make 'em all day
I get one down in a second if you wait

We recently chopped it up with the self-proclaimed "Grand Hustle Muscle," Alfamega, to talk about his upcoming debut, trying to be as big as his label head T.I. and his plans to record a joint album with Busta Rhymes.
Alfamega grew up in an Atlanta housing project and by age nine, he already found himself caught up in a life of crime.  Though rap was always a hobby, Alfa didn’t begin to hone his craft until he was sentenced to seven years in jail.
Within weeks of being released the rapper landed a deal with Universal Records and when that deal dissolved, his childhood friend T.I. was there to embrace him.
“I got with Tip, we did a handshake deal, never signed no contracts or nothing,” Alfamega explains.  T.I. eventually helped the rapper secure a deal with Capitol Records through his own label, Grand Hustle.

Kid Rock is obsessed with Amy Winehouse.
The 'All Summer Long’ singer can’t get enough of Amy’s vintage soul sound, and thinks it could have a place in his own music.
Rock, who has turned his back on his trademark rap-rock sound, said: 'The only thing I’ve been listening to lately is Amy Winehouse. She’s got me back into that old-school soul thing. Her album is so great it’s made me go through all my old Stax and Motown records again.
'I’d really like to add a little of that flavour to my music. Hip-hop’s turned into bad pop music. People don’t believe in half of the current rappers and especially don’t believe in what they have to say. No-one’s really a killer or a gangster – that’s why I’m singing more.'
