London rapper, Speech Debelle was booed off stage at the launch event for the new Take That edition of karaoke videogame, 'SingStar'.

The 500-strong crowd apparently took exception to the Mercury winner after she chose to rap her way through the TT classic, 'Pray', instead of singing it. Which, given that the game scores you on how closely you can mimic the original song, is probably fair.

The Mirror claims that Debelle retorted:

"I'm a rapper. I don't do Take shit".

Although that seems quite unlikely. However, it seems that the event's host, James Corden, did return to the stage and announce: "That was shit, anyone can rap", before launching into a rap of his own.

Held in aid of HIV charity Body & Soul, Lily Allen, Paloma Faith, Rachel Stevens, Kate Moss, Pixie Geldof, Amy Winehouse's goddaughter Dionne Bromfield and Take That themselves were all in attendance.
