The Mirror reports that former Hear’Say star Myleene Klass was attacked near her home in South East London the other evening by a vicious gang of “happy slappers” which included three girls and two boys. Myleene, who launched the website Stop Text Bully on behalf of children’s charity NCH, was apparently specifically targeted by the group after one asked her if she was the host of the ITV1 show ‘cd:uk’. “This must have been a terrifying experience for Myleene,” NCH said. “Her ordeal highlights yet again how mobile phones are used to intimidate victims. It’s ironic that this cowardly assault mirrors some of the experiences she has been helping raise awareness of.”
