The troubled singer, 24, arrived at a London police station this afternoon for questioning.
She is expected to be arrested after a 38-year-old man alleged she assaulted him.

Winehouse arrives at Holborn Police Station to be questioned by police over an assault allegation
She was clearly distressed as she was driven away from her home in Camden, North London.
Before she was due at Holborn police station she caused chaos when she unexpectedly arrived outside her god-daughter's school in Bromley.
Scores of pupils from Beaverwood School for Girls swarmed around Winehouse's car when she pulled up shortly after 2pm.

The singer has been photographed shopping with her god-daughter in the past and has introduced her to celebrities including Kelly Osbourne.
Police were expected to question Winehouse about an incident in Chalk Farm Road in the early hours of Wednesday. She was trying to get the taxi when a 38-year-old man approached.
She is said to have believed he was trying to molest her and butted him in the face.
If convicted of assault she could face up to six months in jail and a £2,000 fine.
Meanwhile, Winehouse's husband Blake Fielder-Civil appeared at Snaresbrook Crown Court, in East London, charged with assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
Courting attention: Sophie Schandorff and Blake Fielder-Civil mouthed 'I love you' to each other at his hearing today
The 25-year-old denies causing grievous bodily harm with intent to pub landlord James King of Risley, Derbyshire.
He also denies an allegation that he conspired with his alleged victim to pervert the course of justice. Fielder-Civil was remanded in custody and a provisional trial date was set for June 2.
Amy failed to turn up for the hearing - not that Fielder-Civil appeared to notice. He was warned for repeatedly smiling and trying to communicate with a beautiful blonde siting in the public gallery.

He mouthed, "You all right, babe?" and "I love you" to Sophie Schandorff. Fielder-Civil even made a beckoning gesture suggesting she visit him in prison.
Schandorff, 21, also gestured and mouthed back, "I love you, I love you", but was warned to stop by the court clerk.
She later told reporters that Fielder-Civil was a close friend and that the pair had known one another for sometime.
Chaos: Amy made a pit stop at her god daughter's school on her way to the station
Last night Winehouse showed no sign of curbing her increasingly erratic behaviour.
As soon as her legal team left, she slipped out of her red dress and into her normal scruffy attire to head out with friends at 10pm.
After a quick session in a local pub, The Good Mixer, she headed round the corner to the Made In Brasil restaurant.

House call: Sadie Frost paid Amy a visit at her Camden den in the early hours
Winehouse was apparently asked to leave after she was allegedly caught taking drugs in the toilet. These claims have been entirely denied by her representatives.
She then rounded up her friends and headed to her flat to continue the party. On her way there, she stopped off at a shop to stock up on disposable lighters.
Amy spent most of the night on the arm of rocker Kristian Marr - the pair were holding hands and grabbing each other's bums as they made their way through Camden.
Towers Of London bassist Kristian, 24, had been linked with Sadie Frost, 42, until a couple of months ago, when it was revealed she flew to Mauritius to get over their split.

However, Sadie and her sister Jade Davidson arrived at Amy's flat at 2am, and stayed for more than an hour before both sisters left in a car with Kristian.
There were clearly no bitter feelings, as Sadie sent her driver back to Amy's with two carrier bags, one from Agent Provocateur.

Today it was announced she has entered the Sunday Times list of Britain's wealthiest young millionaires with an estimated fortune of £10m.
