Jack Tweed is finding that his grieving widower act is wearing rather thin. The 21-year-old has been a regular on the party circuit since being released from jail last month - and it is barely three months since his wife Jade Goody died from cancer.

Access denied: Jack Tweed couldn't go to R. Kelly's party

Public sympathy can only stretch so far, and last night he found himself red-faced when he was blocked from the VIP area of Movida nightclub in Soho. R&B star R. Kelly was holding court at the launch party of Belvedere IX, but there was no room for Jack and his chums.

Our spy said: "They said that Jack had been invited into the VIP area to see R. Kelly. But the bouncer did not recognise him and told him that he couldn't get in. When Jack's mate told the bouncer who he was, the guy on the door said, 'It doesn't matter who he is, he still can't come in'."

We'd like to imagine the I Believe I Can Fly singer was warbling "I believe you're a chav" to Jack as he chortled into his vodka cocktail. Our mole added: "Jack was so embarrassed that he took all his mates to the other end of the club and stood by the DJ booth."

Despite his embarrassing ordeal, Jack said: "The bouncer is acting really off - key, I can't be arsed to say who I am because I don't think it will make any difference."

At least you got that right...
