Big Brother 8 UK – Chanelle incident in Night Club.
I actually think this is a bit of a non story, while it’s not at all cool to have someone throw a bottle on a stage while you are on it, it’s not as life threatening and dramatic as the tabloids would have you believe. But am posting for the simple fact this actually happened in my local night club (I wasn’t there that night) and this article is from my own local paper.
BIG Brother star Chanelle Hayes was attacked during an appearance at a Halifax nightclub.
The 19-year-old beauty was on stage at Jumpin’ Jaks, Commercial Street, when a beer bottle was thrown at her.Bodyguards rushed the star off the stage and bouncers threw out the attacker.
The venue was packed with 1,100 clubbers at the time of the incident. Chanelle was making a personal appearance on stage, talking to the crowd and signing autographs.
After the attack Chanelle carried on with her appearance, saying she did not want to disappoint fans.
She said: “I wasn’t going to let one jealous idiot
spoil the night for everyone. I’m just pleased the bottle didn’t hit me or, worse, take my eye out.”A police spokesman said they had not received any complaint about the incident.
In a statement today a spokesman for Jumpin’ Jaks said: “Our security responded immediately when a bottle was thrown on to the stage during Chanelle’s interview.
“Luckily the bottle did not land near our guest but we decided to invite her off the stage as a precaution while security removed the person in question.
“Chanelle was happy to continue to talk with our crowd and the rest of the evening passed without any problems.”
Chanelle, from Wakefield, appeared on Big Brother 8 this summer. She found fame for her obsession with Posh Spice, her desire to marry a footballer and her on-off romance with fellow housemate Ziggy Lichman, 26.
The couple were reported to have got engaged last week.
