FIGHTSTAR - SIMPSON: 'I WAS DRUNKER THAN I'VE EVER BEEN'

LATEST: FIGHTSTAR rocker CHARLIE SIMPSON is still cringing over his passionate drunken embrace of former bandmate MATT WILLIS' girlfriend, because the gaffe plunged him into a heap of trouble. The former BUSTED star was photographed cuddling MTV UK presenter EMMA GRIFFITHS at the Kerrang! Awards last month (24AUG06). But although he insists it was nothing more than a hug, he was subjected to the fury of his girlfriend CAMILLA SMITH, who he intends to marry. He says, "I don't remember thinking it was weird on the night. In my mind nothing was happening at all. "But I was shocked the next morning. I've never had a hangover so bad in my life. "I was so excited. Fightstar had been nominated for Best British Band and loads of my heroes were there. "So I got absolutely s**tfaced. But nothing happened with Emma. If you saw the picture you can draw the wrong conclusion. "I love my girlfriend to bits. I'd never do anything to hurt her. I texted Matt the next morning and said, 'Mate, you know how these things work. It is bull.' "But I did get a massive rollicking from my girlfriend."
