Amy Winehouse has revealed the real reason behind the recent cancellation of two London live shows.

The U.K. soul star, who is famed for her debauched antics, pulled a pair of gigs at London's Shepherds Bush Empire earlier this month.

Last week, she also cancelled two shows in America, following a triumphant appearance at SXSW and the top 10breakthrough of new album Back To Black in the Billboard chart.

Winehouse has now admitted the concerts in the U.K. capital were pulled after she smashed her front tooth in a drunken fall.

"I broke my big tooth. I had a massive gap in the front of my mouth," she revealed, before explaining that dental surgery has fixed the unsightly injury.

The cancelled Shepherds Bush Empire shows will now take place on May 28 and 29.
