Club boss tells of Girls Aloud star's 'aggression'

Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Tweedy demanded that a lavatory attendant whose eye she had punched be brought back to her so she could "give her another one", a court heard today.

The singer was shouting racial insults after the fracas at The Drink nightclub in Guildford in January, Kingston Crown Court was told.

Paul Endersby, a director of the company which runs the club, said he was in the VIP suite when the singer was brought in having allegedly punched Sophie Amogbokpa.

The row broke out after Tweedy grabbed lollipops from a bowl in the lavatories and refused when Ms Amogbokpa, 39, asked her to pay for them, the court has heard.

Mr Endersby said of Tweedy: "She was very aggressive... saying things like, 'Get her up here, that black bitch'."

Mr Endersby told the court that Tweedy then said to the room at large: "Go and get that Caribbean jigaboo back up here and I will give her another one."

Tweedy, 20, denies racially aggravated assault causing actual bodily harm, and assault causing actual bodily harm. The trial continues.
