Lily Allen throws a punch while leaving club!

Lily Allen threw a punch at a passer-by during a drinking session in London's Soho early this morning.

Witnesses suggested Lily reacted after being heckled as she left Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club at 2am. With a short reach, the punch appeared to fail to connect.

The Smile singer's friends, including TV presenter Miquita Oliver, then managed to restrain Lily, persuading her to get into a car.

Lily's target appeared to laugh off the attack, looking more bemused than terrified.

Lily and her friends had started their night at the Groucho Club, before heading to Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club. Earlier in the evening, Lily was in a friendlier mood as she chatted to photographers outside Ronnie Scott's and playfully punched the air.

She told the paparazzi that their attention made her feel like a zoo animal and suggested she entertain them with a joke.
