London, Aug 20 (ANI): Lily Allen attempted to punch a woman who hurled abuse at her outside a nightclub.

An unnamed passerby, reported to be French, started calling the singer a 'f****** a*******' as she left London's Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club.

Surrounded by photographers, Allen chased the woman and tried to hit her three times.

Where is that b****, man? I'll f****** batter her, The Sun quoted Allen, as saying.

Thankfully, Lily's TV host pal Miquita Oliver calmed her down, with the singer agreeing upon the fact that: Violence is bad. (ANI)
