JUDD FORCED TO FLEE FANS IN RED-LIGHT DISTRICT

Campaigning actress ASHLEY JUDD was forced to disrupt her charity trip in India after being mobbed by fans in Mumbai's red-light district.

Ashley Judd at the Annual YouthAIDS Gala held at the Ritz Carlton. Tysons Corner, Virginia - 13.10.06

The KISS THE GIRLS star is in the country promoting AIDS awareness as an ambassador for YouthAIDS.

However, a meet-and-greet with sex workers in the Kamathipura district of India's financial capital ended in chaos when hundreds of fans descended on the narrow streets yesterday (10MAR07).

K BALAJI, a spokesperson for the YouthAIDS project, says, "We had to postpone plans as there were too many people."

Judd's security staff bundled her into a waiting car, delaying her programme by several hours. However, she returned to the area later to continue her visit.

The actress' week-long Indian itinerary will now be kept secret to prevent a similar situation.
