The person pictured on the right — who looks like they're the victim of a terrifying kidnap plot — is Gossip singer Beth Ditto. Her pal insisted on covering her head as they arrived at Proud Galleries in Camden, where Mark Ronson was DJing.

Earlier, she had been at the launch party of the Hogan boutique in Sloane Street, where she grabbed a bottle of wine and jumped on the counter. Our spy said: “The organisers were really worried as the counter was made of glass. Thick glass albeit, but nobody would describe Beth as petite.” She was joined at Proud by former EastEnder Natalie Cassidy, left.
