Pop star Lily Allen has been arrested for allegedly attacking a photographer outside a nightclub.

The 22-year-old singer attended a police station in central London by appointment.

She was released on police bail after being questioned over an alleged assault on a male in his 40s near the Wardour club in London's Soho on March 13.

Scotland Yard said: "At 9.30am yesterday, a 21-year-old woman attended a central London police station by appointment.

"She was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault. She has been bailed to return on a date in late July."

Allen built up a huge following via her MySpace page before releasing her debut single, Smile, which topped the chart last July.

The star, daughter of actor Keith Allen, recently postponed her US tour, saying she wanted to get back into the recording studio.
