Preston: Simon Amstell Is A Snotty Public Schoolboy

Preston has reacted angrily to Never Mind The Buzzcocks host Simon Amstell after walking out of the show during recording on Tuesday evening.

As we told you yesterday, the Ordinary Boys singer abandoned ship after Amstell made a joke about his wife Chantelle.

According to the tabloids, Preston blasted: “If that was in any other situation I would have hit him and knocked him out.

“Obviously I didn’t want to resort to those kind of things, so I just had to remove myself from the situation.

“If I’d had to look at his snotty little public schoolboy failed-career face, I would have hit him. He’s got no charm.”

Amstell’s joke related to an excerpt he read out of Chantelle’s biography where mocked her for saying modelling Marks & Spencer clothes made her feel posh and upmarket.

Come on Preston, he did have a point.
