A pop star lobbed cake at an amorous fan after he jumped on stage and began kissing and hugging her.

Ukrainian star Ani Lorak was being presented with an award when the male fan suddenly grabbed her - and wouldn't let go.

The stunning Eurovision runner-up remained polite at first, but when the fan wouldn't let and began kissing her hand she panicked.

Her security team rushed forward to restrain the intruder, but the beautiful 38-year-old had already decided to take matters into her own hands.

She grabbed a cake beside her and threw it at the attacker - but it just missed him.

The cake landed on the floor of the Muz TV channel studio where a crew were filming a 20-hour television marathon as part of a record-breaking attempt.

Meanwhile, two security guards grabbed hold of the young fan, who was dressed all in black and wearing a woollen hat, and took him away.

The incident did not affect the success of the record bid and the marathon has taken its place in the Russian national book of records.

Lorak is a pop singer, songwriter, actress, entrepreneur, and former UN Goodwill Ambassador who has been cited as one of the most powerful and influential women in Ukraine.

She represented her country at the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest with the song Shady Lady and came in second behind Dima Bilan from Russia.
