Romanian pop star Alexandra Stan has filed a domestic violence complaint against her manager boyfriend.

The Mr. Saxobeat hitmaker alleges she was beaten by Marcel Prodan when she asked him for her earnings, and on Saturday (15Jun13) she was hospitalised with multiple bruises after police found the 24 year old arguing with her partner on the roadside.

Stan was later released, and, on Tuesday (18Jun13), she lodged a formal complaint with prosecutors after cancelling a number of her upcoming shows while she recovers from her injuries.

Police spokesperson Gelu Manolescu tells the Associated Press officials have launched an investigation into her claims.
