Kelly Osbourne has been released on bail after she was arrested for allegedly slapping a woman who insulted her fiancé Luke Worrall.

The daughter of rocker Ozzy Osbourne is accused of confronting Sunday Mirror journalist Zoe Griffin at London nightclub Punk in August over an article in which the gossip columnist teased model Worrall over not knowing how an earthquake is caused.

Griffin wrote in her column shortly after the incident, "She (Kelly) shouted loudly in my ear: 'I have an issue with you. My boyfriend knows what an earthquake is and everyone has been laughing at him and he's upset.' (Then) I felt a hard slap to my right cheekbone. I put my hand to my face while my friends looked on aghast. Soon Kelly came rampaging back over with a female friend jabbing a finger in the air, telling me that I'd have to watch my back if I shared my story with readers of this column. Well sorry Kelly, I won't be silenced by bullies."

Griffin called in cops over the incident and the matter is now under investigation. Osbourne went with her lawyers to a central London police station and handed herself over voluntarily earlier this month.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman says, "We can confirm a 24-year-old woman attended a central London police (station) by appointment on 2 January. She was arrested for common assault relating to an alleged incident in Soho in the early hours of 29 August 2008."

Osbourne has been released on bail until March.
