Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Amy Winehouse has cancelled her British comeback gig, following reports of ill health.
A statement from the 25-year-old singer's management said it "regretfully" announced Winehouse and her band would no longer be performing at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire on Sunday, 31 May.
The statement said: "Amy would like to apologise to her fans who bought tickets."
It said refunds will be issued at point of purchase.
The announcement follows reports the star was taken to hospital in St Lucia last week, complaining of chest pains.
The Rehab singer - who has been staying on the Caribbean island while working on her third album - was said to have been admitted to a ward last Friday after fainting, and later released.
