Amy Winehouse allegedly punched a fan during her Glastonbury performance on Saturday (28.06.08).The troubled star lashed out when a male member of the audience apparently groped her breasts as she stepped down from the stage to get closer to the crowd for her final two songs.Amy was caught on camera hitting out at the fan several times before security separated the pair. Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis has defended the 'Rehab' singer's actions, insisting she was only defending herself.He said: "The fan deserved it. He grabbed Amy's breasts as she went past him."A spokesman for the Grammy award winner claims the attack was provoked when a fan tried to pull at Amy's famous beehive hairstyle.He said: "The 'lashing out' was when someone tried to grab her hair and she reacted."
