It may be safe to say that the "Virtual Insanity" singer may have gotten a little insane himself this week. Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay was arrested in the early morning hours after fighting with paparazzi outside a nightclub.
The 36-year-old British singer was leaving London's trendy Kabaret's Prophecy in the early hours of Tuesday morning when he lashed out at photographer Alan Chapman.
Police called to the scene handcuffed the singer and took him into custody following an allegation of assault.
Jay Kay spent ten hours in jail before being released with a caution for common assault.
Snapper Alessandro Copetti, who witnessed the incident, said, "He was steaming drunk. All the photographers were waiting for Lindsay Lohan, but Jay Kay thought they were there for him."
"He screamed, 'I'm going to kill you all' and punched Alan in the face. He knocked his glasses off and kept punching and kicking him. When the police turned up he yelled, 'I pay your wages. You live in poverty you miserable f***s,'" added Copetti.
This is not the first time the singer, real name Jason Kay, has clashed with paparazzi.
In 2002, he was involved in a brawl with a photographer at the London premiere of 'Stars Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.'
In 2001, an earlier photograph claimed the star assaulted him and smashed up his equipment outside another London club.
