AMY Winehouse may have escaped being booed but failed to steal the show.

The Back to Black star gave an underpowered performance from the V festival’s main stage on Sunday despite attracting one of the biggest audiences of the weekend.

The troubled singer got off to shaky start with Addicted and Just Friends.

Fans found it difficult to join in as the 24-year-old Grammy winner mumbled her way through hit singles Love is A Losing Game, Back to Black, Rehab and Tears Dry on Their Own.

It was left to her backing singers to get the crowd clapping to You’re Wondering Now.

But she still showed glimmers of greatness with her fifth number, new song Wake Up Alone.

She sang the track with passion and tenderness after dedicating it to her husband Blake Fielder-Civil who is currently serving a 27-month jail sentence.

Meanwhile her cover of Zutons hit,Valerie, was a well-received finale.
