"I saw a hat being thrown from behind me and it hit Amy's beehive," James Gostelow told the BBC. "She looked down, saw me looking up, and her elbow went for me."
The 25-year-old London resident says the encounter was a case of mistaken identity.
"She caught my forehead, then someone may have shouted something from the back, which is when she went in again," he added.
Footage of the 24-year-old singer's lunge was widely circulated over the weekend (Watch here).
Gostelow, who provided the BBC with his tape of the incident, is not planning to file a police complaint. He's brushing off the incident as "all part of the Glastonbury experience.
"Not everyone can say they have been hit by Amy Winehouse," he said. "I'm just pleased I got to see her. She did a great act."
Last month, Winehouse was released on bail after being arrested for suspicion of drug use. She was questioned by police for more than nine hours about footage from January that shows her allegedly using a crack pipe.
The singer also went to rehab in January.
