AMY WINEHOUSE - EAVIS HAS "TOTAL FAITH" THAT WINEHOUSE WILL PLAY GLASTONBURY

Emily Eavis has said that she has "total faith" that Amy Winehouse will perform at this year's Glastonbury festival.

Speaking to BBC Radio 1's Newsbeat, the festival organiser said: "I have total faith, I think she'll come and deliver.

"This is one of the biggest sets of the summer, supporting the most anticipated artist at Glastonbury in the past 38 years."

Winehouse was informed last week that she would not face charges over video footage allegedly showing her smoking crack cocaine.

The singer has been a constant feature in the tabloids recently and Brit-winning producer Mark Ronson claimed recently that she isn't ready to work on music after plans for the new James Bond title track fell through.

"I don't know how much is hot air from the press and how much is reality but she is pretty reliable actually," Eavis told the BBC.

"It's her personal life and no-one really knows the extent of what she's up to and I don't think it should be public knowledge.

"We all know she's a brilliant performer and I think that's what we should be focusing on."

Emily Eavis and her father Michael have come under considerable criticism for the line-up at this year's festival, with US rapper Jay-Z set to headline the Pyramid Stage.
