British born entertainer Lily Allen is being investigated by police for an alleged violent attack on a photographer.

The 22-year-old singer faces arrest after being accused of punching a male member of the paps in the face in an unprovoked attack.

Photographer Kevin Rush claims he walked away from the March assault outside a popular London nightclub with a bleeding and bruised nose after Lil’s gold sovereign ring cut into his face and left a bruise.

“She hit me even though I had put my camera down. I turned to the right and she hit me in the face,” Keith explains.

“She was saying to us beforehand: ‘You all want me to do something, don’t you?’ and she attacked me after that.”

“My nose was bleeding but I didn’t realize until someone pointed it out. I was just so stunned, I could not believe it.

“I could not understand why she thought she should be allowed to do that. If I had punched someone I would be in trouble so why shouldn’t a celebrity?”

It’s been a tough week for Lily. The London debut of her new eclectic line of fashions, Lily Loves, was popularly panned by the public just two weeks after the UK premiere of Kate Moss’ Topshop drew record crowds.
