- By Helena Horton

CBEEBIES has banned Josh Homme, the rock singer, from reading bedtime stories after he kicked a female photograph­er in the head.

A BBC spokesman told The Daily Telegraph that episodes of Bedtime Stories featuring the Queens of the Stone Age singer would not be shown “until the matter is resolved”.

Homme has recorded three episodes, but only one has so far been broadcast.

Homme, 44, has apologised twice on social media to Chelsea Lauren, who was treated at hospital after he kicked her camera on Saturday.

The photograph­er has said she intends to file a police report.
