Amy Winehouse's Father Beats Pete Doherty

Note to self: Do not mess with Amy Winehouse! Winehouse's father Mitch doesn't like that fact that fellow junkie Pete Doherty has been hanging out with his daughter--so he gave him a good beating.

Mitch clocked Pete over the head with a guitar backstage during her gig in Brixton, South London last week.

An onlooker said: “He told him to leave Amy alone, saying that he was the last person she needs at moment.

“Pete was smirking until Mitch turned and whacked him.”

I don't know about you guys but this story certainly brightened up my day! Any father in his right mind would go to extremes to keep their daughter away from Pete Doherty.
