Drew Barrymore and boyfriend Justin Long were involved in a fight after a stranger tried to take pictures of them in a bar.
The couple were reportedly drinking at the Bar Lubitsch in West Hollywood when a fellow patron began photographing them without permission.
An onlooker told In Touch Weekly: "Drew complained to a member of staff and suddenly there were fists flying everywhere.
"Drew and Justin ran out of there as quickly as they could."
The pair have been dating since they met while filming romantic comedy He's Just Not That Into You in September.
Long, who also starred in horror film Jeepers Creepers, recently said he felt "very blessed and happy" to be with Barrymore.

WHILE his girlfriend Jessica Biel is away in England filming her next movie, Justin Timberlake has been hanging out with a former hook-up buddy.
JT and Kate Hudson were seen arriving at West Hollywood club Villa at the same time on Friday and then leaving just minutes apart a few hours later.
Star magazine even reported that the pair made out at the club, but JT’s team have strenuously denied those claims.
Justin and Kate first hooked up at a New Year's party more than a year ago – when Justin was on the rebound from a long-term relationship with Cameron Diaz.

Demi Moore is a typical mom who just happens to move in Hollywood circles.
"My normal day is, I get up with the kids, take them to school, a few days a week I might do Pilates, reading, meetings, and then we always do family dinner at 6:30," she tells the next issue of V Magazine, on stands Monday.
Moore, 45, has three daughters with ex-husband Bruce Willis: Rumer, 19, Scout, 16, and Tallulah Belle, 13.
The famous acting couple have remained friends and do many things together, including walking the red carpet for premieres and taking trips, along with Moore's husband of two years, Ashton Kutcher, 29.
"It wasn't a piece of cake" for everyone to get along, reveals Moore, who posed for celebrity photographer Mario Testino for the V cover story. "It wasn't automatic or easy. It took diligence and effort and even enduring awkwardness, and a lot of general giving on my part and Bruce's part. And really, tremendously, on Ashton's part. Coming into my life, Ashton just wasn't meeting somebody that had baggage. You know, I had trunks!"
Part of the motivation to make her particular family situation work: respect. "It's far more exhausting to be angry and blaming," she tells the magazine. "You can dig deep within yourself and really have a desire for someone else's happiness, which I feel I do have for Bruce and he has for me. He has a joy and appreciation for what Ashton and I share, and for how Ashton is with the girls."
As for dealing with the paparazzi since moving back to Los Angeles, the star of the crime drama Flawless (due in theaters in March) says it has been a challenge.
"When I first moved back to L.A., I had a very difficult time and found that I didn't want to leave the house so much," Moore says. "And then I started to feel, well, I don't want to be isolated and worried that if they're getting a photograph then I'm not going to go and do something. It's difficult when they hang out at the bottom of your street waiting for you to drive by."
That perspective explains her sympathy for some of today's young stars.
"No one has seen it worse than Britney Spears," she says. "How can anyone see that and think that's an OK way to expect anybody to live, no matter where they're at in their life?"

Eddie Murphy (46) and Tracey Edmonds (40) are splitting up, just two weeks after their New Year’s Day faux marriage on a private island near Bora Bora.
The ceremony was not legally-binding. The only people who are allowed to be married there are natives, or visitors who have been on the island for at least 30 days, but the pair had said they would make things legit stateside.
Eddie’s rep said:
"After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forego having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further. While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends.”

Here is Sarah Michelle Gellar at the Los Angeles premiere of her new movie, The Air I Breathe, which also stars big names such as Kevin Bacon, Brendan Fraser, Forest Whitaker, and Andy Garcia.
According to IMDB, it’s a drama based on an ancient Chinese proverb that breaks life down into four emotional cornerstones: happiness, pleasure, sorrow and love. A businessman (Whitaker) bets his life on a horse race; a gangster (Fraser) sees the future; a pop star (Gellar) falls prey to a crime boss (Garcia); a doctor (Bacon) must save the love of his life.
Jennifer Aniston has been on a blind date with 'Entourage' Kevin Connolly.
The 'Friends' star was reportedly set up with the 33-year-old actor by Tobey Maguire and his wife Jennifer Meyer.
Maguire and Meyer knew both stars were holidaying at Mexican resort Cabo San Lucas and suggested the pair met up.
A source told In Touch Weekly magazine: "Tobey and his wife knew it was a long shot, but think they could have made a love connection.
"Physically, Kevin is not Jen's type. She usually goes for taller guys. But Jen likes guys who can make her laugh, and Kevin kept her in stitches during the trip."

Janet Jackson is back ... in more ways than one. Her newest single 'Feedback' is burning up the charts, and there's no doubt that her latest album cover is burning up computer screens around the world.
British supermodel Kate Moss has been celebrating her 34th birthday in style - by hiring two floors at London’s exclusive Dorchester Hotel, so that her pals could party long and hard into the night.
Kate’s 34th birthday celebrations kicked off yesterday - and are still going strong now - nearly 18 hours after the party kicked off yesterday.
Kate - who’s dating ‘The Kills’ rocker Jamie Hince, was joined by a whole host of top-notch celebs, including comedian David Walliams, retail billionaire Philip Green, and TV presenter Kelly Osbourne.
The birthday extravaganza kicked off yesterday afternoon with a champagne reception at the London hotel.
Kate and her pals were then treated to a “girlie pampering session” involving cream teas and pink champagne.
By 8pm the party people left their private area to pop downstairs for a meal at the hotel’s China Tang restaurant.
They then made their way to the Punk nightclub in Soho to continue the partying.

"I'm your biggest fan!...I'm trying to help you quit smoking," a tattooed man shouted as he shoved a pack of Nicoderm patches into the confessed addict's hands. "I quit smoking 20 years ago," he said.
"You did? Just like that?" the 29-year-old newlywed said as she signed autographs.
Her attention only perked up when he handed her another smoking cessation option: nicotine gum.
"This I could use, thank you!" she said holding up the pack.

Mark Ronson won't work with Lindsay Lohan.
The BRIT award-nominated producer - who has previously collaborated with Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen and Robbie Williams - isn't interested in getting involved with Lindsay's next LP, despite the fact she is good friends with his sister Samantha.
Mark told BANG Showbiz: "Samantha and Lindsay are good friends, but no, I wouldn't produce her album. I don't know, I am more interested in working with musicians and groups of singers. Not to take anything away from her. I am sure she will make a good record."
However, Mark - whose new tour starts on 14 February - insists he would consider working with troubled singer Britney Spears.
When asked which artist he wants to collaborate with next, the 32-year-old star replied: "Britney Spears! No, I'm just kidding. I have never met her. I don't know, I have already worked with so many talented people. It's not like I have a lack of inspiring people to surround myself with."
Lindsay is said to be under pressure to release a third album - tentatively titled 'Nobody's Angel' - because she is contracted to produce another record for the Universal Music Group.

Kevin Federline could scoop $10m by penning a tell-all book about his turbulent marriage to troubled pop princess Britney Spears.
K-Fed, 29, is putting down the details of his rollercoaster relationship with Spears on paper, it has been claimed.
“He’s been writing things down for a long time about his tempestuous time with Britney. He’ll earn a fortune with this,” an insider told Star magazine.
“Kevin feels that Britney suffers from a form of schizoid or multiple personality disorder.”
And the insider says the sizzling book would also cover the couple’s sex life, starting when Britney picked him up at a Hollywood nightclub four years ago. “Britney invited Kevin back to her bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel. He says they had unprotected sex their first night together,” the source added.”
The book would also contain details of Spears dressing up in a French maid or nurse’s costume, and Spears’ interest in a threesome. “It always made Kevin insecure. He wondered if Britney preferred women over men.
“He says that Britney wanted him to participate with her in threesomes and he never would.”
The book would also include details of Spears’ wild personality and substance abuse. “Kevin says that she always wanted to get high and drunk,” the source added. “She sometimes stayed up all night drinking and smoking.”
Industry experts say the book would be a guaranteed bestseller and the failed rapper could bank more than $10m for it.
“A book like that would be really hot. There would definitely be a bidding war,” U.S publisher Ron Turner told the magazine.
“When all is said and done, with advance serialization and international rights and movie rights he could get $10m, if not more.”
Federline may also be ready to describe video footage shot by 15 security cameras the ex-couple has installed in their luxurious Malibu mansion. “Britney knows Kevin kept some tapes, and she’s begged him many times to destroy them.
“Some show her in violent fits of rage. She got so out of control, she would hit him. There are so many dark moments.”
Representatives for Federline deny that he is writing the book.

Here’s a photo montage of the evolution of Amy’s hair.
Whatever else you could say about troubled songstress Amy Winehouse, you couldn't say she learns from her mistakes.
Last week, the British singer's trademark skinny-jeans-and-dirty-ballet-pumps look helped her to win second place in the worst dressed celebrity awards - one place behind Victoria Beckham.
But ever the independent woman, 24-year-old Amy decided to take sole charge of revamping her image. Her trademark beehive was the first thing to go.
Here, Femail dissects Amy's new look, but first what would the singer look like if she adopted other celebrity barnets?

Pamela Anderson's marriage to Rick Salomon is apparently over, but she was recently spotted kissing him in Los Angeles.

The MC -- real name Earl Simmons -- was sued by Monique Wayne for defamation of character in 2006 after the star claimed he was raped by the woman during a hotel stay in Baltimore in 2003.
He told the magazine Sister 2 Sister, "She raped me. DNA says it is (my child). I don't know. If I did (have sex with her), I would remember. It ain't like she's a pretty girl."
Wayne responded to the comments by filing a $6 million lawsuit against Simmons in Prince George's County Circuit Court in Upper Marlboro, Md., in October 2006.
Judge Thomas Smith ruled in Wayne's favor on Friday when Simmons skipped the scheduled court hearing, ordering the rapper to pay her $518,400 in compensation, plus a further $1 million in punitive penalties, reports the New York Post.
Following the ruling, Wayne told the newspaper, "It's not so much the price, it's the point I wanted to get across. Let him think about what he's going to say before he says it."
A spokesman for DMX has yet to comment.

In March last year, Johnny Depp’s 8-year old daughter Lily-Rose contracted kidney failure as a result of E. coli poisoning. She contracted the bug while the family was staying at a rented mansion during filming of Sweeney Todd. Her condition worsened so much that it was feared she wouldn’t live.
“It was the most frightening thing we have ever been through. It was hell,” recalls Depp. “But the magic is that she pulled through beautifully. Great Ormond Street was terrific, a great hospital.”
And so out of gratefulness, Golden Globes 2008 winner Johnny Depp donated $2 million out of his money to Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.
But the giving didn’t stop there. Last week, Depp treated the staff to the party for the London premiere of his film Sweeney Todd. And last November, he spent four hours at the hospital telling bedtime stories to patients dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow (in full costume!).
