A singer was thrown out of a Birmingham nightclub last night, after jumping on the stage during a performance by music star Alesha Dixon.
Jay Jamieson, who describes himself as a “actor, musician and model“, was dragged off stage by security staff at the Nightingale Club in Birmingham last night, during a special performance by music star – and Britain’s Got Talent judge – Alesha Dixon.
Jamieson, from Newcastle, was grabbed by staff at the club and evicted after he managed to climb a secure stage and began running towards Alesha Dixon during a live performance, during which he attempted to hug her.
Dixon appeared taken aback at the time of the incident, but composed herself and continued to sing following a brief pause. She later seemed to see the funny side of the mishap, after Jamieson apologised for his actions on social media site Twitter.
Tweeting her a public message earlier today, he wrote: “amazing in nightengales [sic] last! Sorry i jumped on stage and got threw out”.
Alesha Dixon ‘liked’ the tweet and replied: “Hilarious!”
