What a difference some R&R in St. Lucia makes! Amy Winehouse showed up for court today in London looking fan-tiddily-astic and was rewarded with an acquittal!

Winehouse had plead not guilty to assault charges, stemming from an incident where Amy punched a fan in the eye at a charity ball after they asked for a photo in September of 2008.

Miraculously, the judge found Amy not guilty on assault charges. Winehouse's defense? While prosecutors claimed the hit was deliberate, Winehouse claimed she felt intimidated as the fan was drunk and that she was too short to actually smack the girl in the face, so she went for the eye.

Winehouse was intimidated because the fan was drunk? How did the fan feel? Winehouse was probably drunk, on crack, had taken a hit of acid and injected a quart of bleach in her neck.
