Former N-Dubz member Dappy slapped a man outside a nightclub, a court has heard.

George Chittock alleged he was attacked by the singer after a "meet and greet" at Chicago's in Chelmsford, Essex, at about 02:00 GMT on 27 February.

Dappy, 26, of St Albans, Hertfordshire, is appearing at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court under his real name Dino Costas Contostavlos.

If that wee scrote slapped me I'd be done for murder.

I think anyone older than about twelve could put him under, but this victim has probably gone for the "I was assaulted and traumatised, give me tens of thousands of quids" approach.
