The 25-year-old singer is accused of assaulting a woman in Berkeley Square, Westminster, on September 26.
She will appear at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court on March 17.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: "Amy Winehouse, a 25-year-old singer of Hadley Wood, appears on bail at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court on Tuesday March 17 charged with common assault in connection with an incident at Berkeley Square on September 26 2008."

A spokesman for Winehouse said: "Amy voluntarily attended a police station in London yesterday morning.

"She was questioned by appointment in relation to an accusation made after the Berkeley Ball last year.

"She was charged with common assault and will attend a court hearing in the coming weeks."
Winehouse has recently moved to Hadley Wood, in Enfield, north London, from Camden following a two-month break in the Caribbean.

The 25-year-old singer is accused of assaulting a woman

That figures! She's only charged (finally!) when she's assaulted another woman. What about the half dozen men (at least) that she's attacked before and after this particular assault, as well as her own husband (which she publically attacked, let alone what goes on behind closed doors)?

Compare this with how Chris Brown has been vilified, demonized and presumed guilty over the Rihanna case because of unsubstantiated rumours.

Yes, it had to be a woman before she was eventually charged. What's the bet she won't get time?
