Police have arrested a man over an alleged assault on 2006 X Factor winner Leona Lewis at a book signing.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said police were called to Waterstone's book store at Piccadilly, London, but Lewis did not need hospital treatment.
Lewis's spokesman said the singer had been signing autographs for around 90 minutes when "a guy came up and punched her to the side of the head".
The spokesman added that Lewis was "understandably badly shaken".
In a statement, Waterstone's said: "There was an incident at our Leona Lewis signing this afternoon and the event was immediately stopped.

"We are now doing everything we can to support the police in their inquiries."
Lewis had been signing copies of her new autobiography, Dreams, which is due to be released next month.
Ok, about five months ago she was headbutted by her horse, now some guy just physically abused her.
Wow.
