Following an investigation into Amy Winehouse's alleged appearance in a grainy home video, which purportedly depicts the star smoking drugs from a glass pipe, the singer has been cleared by police and no charges will be pressed against her, according to her publicist.
"Police have confirmed that no action will be taken against Amy Winehouse in relation to an investigation into a video handed to them in January," the rep said in a statement. "She was questioned by police last week and released on unconditional bail. They have now concluded their enquiries and no charges will be brought. Amy's bail date to return to Limehouse police station has been cancelled, bringing this matter to an end.
"Amy is pleased to be able to move on and concentrate on music and particularly looks forward to seeing her fans again at eagerly awaited festival performances this summer," the statement continued.
In January, the barely audible, two-minute-long video clip surfaced online, elevating concerns about the state of the singer's health. The video was hosted at British tabloid The Sun's Web site, and in the background, at one point, Winehouse's wedding picture can be seen hanging on the wall.
Last week, Winehouse was released on an undisclosed bail amount after being arrested for the second time in as many weeks. Winehouse turned herself in to face questioning over the widely circulated video, and was arrested in order to be interviewed. Last month, the singer got off with a caution for slapping a man in a bar.
