And speaking of altercations, US rapper Young Jeezy was arrested following one at a strip club in Georgia last week. The hip hopper, real name Jay Jenkins, was apprehended by DeKalb County Police following a 3am incident at a club in the city of Clarkston, near Atlanta.

Police spokesman Michael Payne confirmed that the fracas took place, telling reporters: "Evidently there was some type of altercation in the club, someone didn't want to leave. It turns out one of the people in the group was Jay Jenkins or Young Jeezy. Evidently he was there with his sister and some friends".

Payne went on to explain that Jenkins and two male friends were both booked on disorderly conduct charges before being released, whilst the rapper's sister was given a citation for disorderly conduct, but not booked. He added that there was no physical fighting involved, and that the incident consisted purely of a verbal confrontation.
