Amy Winehouse Pleads Not Guilty to Assault, Has Not Entirely Quit Her Day Job
While the rest of the world gathered to down green beers in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, oft-hard-partying singer Amy Winehouse, 25, attended a different sort of soiree — a hearing in a London court. On March 17, the singer pleaded not guilty to assault charges stemming from a September 2008 incident in which she allegedly punched a fan. In keeping with the formality of this day, she reportedly stated her situation-appropriate married name: Amy Jade Civil. (Her estranged husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, began divorce proceedings in January.) Winehouse, who’s out on bail, is scheduled to return for a hearing in July. That may be the only public appearance on her docket for now.

Earlier this month, the singer canceled a highly anticipated performance at April’s Coachella festival in California, but as she went to court she was listed as a performer, alongside the likes of Chicago and Chaka Khan, on the official website for May’s Saint Lucia Jazz festival. Unfortunately, according to her rep, the Caribbean concert series will not have Amy in the house: ”No performance dates are scheduled at this time.” No one at the festival offices could be reached for comment. Still, fans feeling neglected by the troubled troubadour may find reason to have faith in the luck o’ the Irish: Adds the rep, ”She continues to write new music.”— Lindsay Soll

West Wing Actor Ron Silver Dies
Actor Ron Silver passed away March 15 in his Manhattan home from esophageal cancer; he was 62. Silver won a Tony for his 1988 performance in David Mamet’s Speed-the-Plow, but was probably best known for his turn in the 1990 film Reversal of Fortune and his memorable run on The West Wing. ”Ron lit up the set every time he came to work,” says series creator Aaron Sorkin. ”Everyone on our show loved him, and he can’t be replaced.” Silver was a president of Actors’ Equity and a cofounder of the Creative Coalition. After 9/11, his politics veered right, surprising some. But it was that same sense of unpredictability that made every Ron Silver performance one worth watching. — Chris Nashawaty
