Callum Best smuggled out of Blu Bambu

Playboy Callum Best was smuggled out of a Newcastle nightclub today as the crowd turned nasty during a promotional event.

Callum, son of soccer legend George Best, had to sneak past troublemakers at Blu Bambu in the city's Bigg Market before being driven away in a police car.

But today Callum downplayed police reports and said he climbed into the panda car for a laugh.

Police said clubbers began shouting abuse at the model which made him concerned for his safety.

Callum, who was earlier this year crowned winner of the TV reality show Love Island along with Bianca Gascoigne, 19, step daughter of Tyneside football hero Gazza, made his way outside and got into a police car.


Insp Bill Morris, with Northumbria Police, said: "Callum Best, the son of George Best, was at the Blue Bambu club in the Bigg Market this morning and had to be rescued.


"Verbal abuse was being thrown by local youths in the club.


"A patrolling police officer was at the scene and got Callum out of the club and into a police car. The officer drove him away from the club, around the corner into Dean Street, where he got out."


The heart-throb was visiting the city to celebrate the club's refurbished VIP room. He was launching a new night being staged at the club each Thursday, called 1 Night Stand.


Callum was chosen to kick off the weekly event, but it was reported jealous yobs turned the night into a slanging match.


He had gone on stage at 9pm and had stayed at the club until the early hours. But as the night wore on, and alcohol took its toll, a crowd of yobs turned abusive towards him.


Patrolling police intervened at 3am as the situation looked as though it could get out of hand.


A police car pulled up outside the club and Callum was put in the back and driven to safety.


He was dropped off around the corner in Dean Street, away from the crowd. He then returned to his hotel on the Quayside.


But Callum today denied that he needed help and said it was a prank. He said: "I got into the police car for a laugh and was driven around the corner. That's all that happened - that's it."


No one was arrested during the incident.
