London, June 28 (ANI): Amy Winehouse showed the world that she is still in love with her jailed hubby Blake Fielder-Civil, by making a sensational plea and paying tribute to him at Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday concert.

The troubled singer could not stop her self from saying: "Free Blakey my fella."

The Back To Black chart-topper substituted these words into the finale Free Nelson Mandela song.

She also wore a red heart-shaped hair-clip spelling 'Blake' in her trademark beehive barnet.

Fielder-Civil, 26, is behind bars awaiting sentence after admitting perverting the course of justice and GBH.

Winehouse sang "Rehab" and "Valerie" for a crowd that welcomed her with loud cheers.

Mandela watched from the wings as Winehouse performed on stage. She also joined other stars in singing "Happy Birthday" to the 90-year-old Mandela. (ANI)
