Welsh soul star Duffy has branded punk rocker John Lydon “horrible” after he attacked her at this year’s Mojo Awards,
WENN reports August 18th.
Duffy was collecting a gong for Song of the Year at the London event in June when the Sex Pistols frontman -
also known as Johnny Rotten – pinned her against a wall.

She recalls,
“He’d been heckling me when I went to pick up an award,
shouting ‘Duffo’, ‘Up the Duffy’, things like that – nice!
“When I picked up the award, I had to walk past him so I went to say ‘Hi’ and suddenly he had me pinned against the wall.
I just went white and had to get away.
“I just had to leave the building through the back door, it was horrible.
I went home with a heavy heart and an award.”
But the singer admits she has forgiven Lydon for his behaviour.
She adds, “I’m not a person to hold a grudge.
The only reason you become strong is because of the things you experience in life.”
