'Rude' Vanessa Paradis delivers snub to Jonathan Ross as he asks for a photograph

The presenter, 50, waited for more than an hour at the after-show party of her gig at Koko in Camden last night to meet the singer. But when he moved in to say hello and ask for a picture with her, she refused.
An onlooker said: "No one could quite believe it. Jonathan is one of the most high-profile faces on British TV and she was just so incredibly rude to him. She was being fawned over by swathes of lackeys and well-wishers, and couldn't even give him a minute."
Ross was said to have laughed off the encounter and left shortly afterwards. He went to the performance on his way home from filming an episode of Top Gear. He was there to meet the club's owner Oliver Bengough, having just signed up to present several shows for his French cinema channel Cinemoi.
In an interview today, Paradis, 38, revealed she did not know why her hit Joe Le Taxi was so popular.
She said: "If you listen to it, it is a very simple rumba; it wasn't meant to be a big pop song at all. I have no idea why it was so successful. It was just one of those moments."
Despite rumours that Paradis's husband Johnny Depp would turn up, the star was nowhere to be seen. He was earlier spotted in Los Angeles.
