Slap-happy UK songstress Lilly Allen recently punched on with a member of the paparazzi after he reportedly ran into her car in London.

Allen, who has been famous for her wild outbursts and frenzied attacks on the press, lunged at the photographer after he "accidentally" rammed into the back of her vehicle.

It has been said she "punched and kicked him repeatedly" and threw a bottle of water at him.

It is believed British authorities will be investigating the attack, and the 23-year-old could face charges over the incident.

Allen, if charged, could have difficulties traveling to the US, where she is about to embark on a nationwide tour.

Allen has faced assault charges previously. Her situation, if she is prosecuted, could mirror that of troubled songstress Amy Winehouse, who had her US Visa jeopardized after allegedly assaulting a fan last September.

As a result of the assault charges, she had to forgo her performance at the United States premiere music festival, Coachella.
