DUFFY: 'LYDON WAS ROTTEN'

Welsh soul star DUFFY has branded punk rocker JOHN LYDON 'horrible' after he attacked her at this year's (08) Mojo Awards.

Aimee Anne Duffy at the Mojo Honours List held at the Brewery - Press Room. London, England - 16.06.08

Duffy was collecting a gong for Song of the Year at the London event in June (08) when the Sex Pistols frontman - also known as Johnny Rotten - pinned her against a wall.

She recalls, "He'd been heckling me when I went to pick up an award, shouting 'Duffo', 'Up the Duffy', things like that - nice!

"When I picked up the award, I had to walk past him so I went to say 'Hi' and suddenly he had me pinned against the wall. I just went white and had to get away.

"I just had to leave the building through the back door, it was horrible. I went home with a heavy heart and an award."

But the singer admits she has forgiven Lydon for his behaviour.

She adds, "I'm not a person to hold a grudge. The only reason you become strong is because of the things you experience in life."
