Feisty Welsh singer Charlotte Church has laid into Amy Winehouse, saying the Rehab singer's concert no-shows are inexcusable.
"It's just rude if you ask me," the Voice of an Angel star told OK magazine. "I always performed well, turned up, did my duties."
Charlotte, 21, who is pregnant with rugby player Gavin Henson's baby, also criticised Amy's appearance on her chatshow which was riddled with difficulties.
"When she turned up for rehearsal she was drunkshe kept forgetting her words. Come the show, we had to do a few takes."
Troubled singer Amy, a former student at Croydon's Brit School, reportedly left rehab for a second time on Sunday after a series of rows with her hubby Blake Fielder-Civil.
The skinny star was rushed to London's University College Hospital on August 8 at 1am.
Although her record label Island Records said she was suffering from severe exhaustion, it is thought her collapse was due to a three day drink and drugs binge.
Amy pulled out of the V Festival and has put her other touring commitments on hold.
