A CCTV monitor showed that the 47-year-old singer lost control of his Ranger Rover and then smashed into the front of a camera store in Hampstead, north London.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed: "Police were called at approximately 3.30 a.m. on Sunday to reports of a vehicle in collision with a building."

The British singer was unhurt in the accident. He made the test for alcohol and drugs in a nearby police station and was released until August pending further inquiries.

Last year, he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence when his Land Rover hit a lorry on the A34 in Berkshire.
