London, May 25 (IANS) Pop singer Amy Winehouse was rescued by a fan when British comedian Russell Brand’s estranged father Ronald Henry tried to cuddle her without her consent.

‘Ronnie was being really loud and reminding everyone that he was Russell’s dad. He seemed drunk and everyone there was getting fed up with him,’ dailystar.co.uk quoted a source as saying.

”Russell’s gone global now and I have $29 million to invest in the music business’, he said. Then he started bothering Amy and kept putting his arm around her shoulder.’

‘A blonde who was standing nearby took offence. She pushed Ronnie’s head against a wall and was slapping him while shouting: ‘Who are you?”

‘She looked really angry and Ronnie just sort of cowered away,’ source added.
