Dizzee Rascal cancels festival after airline drama

Dizzee Rascal has scrapped his slot at a Portuguese festival this weekend after a confrontation with a member of staff on a plane at Heathrow Airport in London.

The rapper was allegedly involved in an argument with an air stewardess after which he was asked to leave the British Airways aircraft.

Rascal's spokesperson claims a member of staff's "unprofessional behaviour... led to a confrontation whereby mutual parties agreed Dizzee (should) leave the plane... He is very disappointed not to be able to perform and apologises to his fans."

A police spokesperson adds, "Officers attended the scene but there were no arrests."
