JAY-Z was caught up in a race row when bouncers at his BRITs after-show party banned white people from boozing with the star.
Chart legend Jay-Z threw a lavish bash but music industry executives, journalists and revellers were turned away from the roped-off area because of the colour of their skin.
Minders were spotted banning clubbers from the private event because they were not of colour.
The venue was top new members club Merah, in Oxford Circus, central London. But the party, put on by the Collective Entertainment Group, upset many of the chart favourites who turned up.
Among those left furious by the bizarre rulings were top black celebs. JLS hunk Oritsé Williams and Strictly Come Dancing judge Alesha Dixon, 31, stormed out.
One clubber said: The security guards were happy to let in all party-goers apart from the white people.
Girls were being pushed from pillar to post and shouting at each other, yet the security bulldogs paid no attention, despite scenes of violence right under their noses.
Alesha told the Daily Star on the night: My friends have been getting knocked about and no-one seems to care.
I need to get out of here. Id rather be at my local kebab shop Elsies right now than back inside with all that aggro.
What a horrible end to the night. I was having a blast at my record label party and now the mood is soured. I wish Id never come.
Many other stars partied the night away at other mixed parties across the capital.

In 1980, when I was 15 years old, I was the one white boy in a funk band in Georgia. Used to go to parties, 150 people, only white guy there, no problem. I often wonder what happened between then and now.

all those boys died in WWII for this crap?
Same thing where I grew up in Mississippi in the 60s and 70s...very little black racism towards whites
now...
Well WWII was pretty much the beginning of the fall of white, Western culture.
In the seventies, when I was coming out of my teens, I went to all black nightclubs, with my black coworkers and friends, and nobody said "boo!" I have the unpleasant feeling that would not be the case, now.
