Ronan Keating slams Kate Beckinsale for rude red carpet behaviour

Ronan Keating has blasted a well-known British actor for her rude behaviour on the red carpet.

The Boyzone singer didn't name the star but he did give a few clues about her identity and we're calling it — he was definitely talking about Kate Beckinsale.

On his Magic FM breakfast radio show, Keating revealed what the actor did on the red carpet at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London earlier this week.

"The red carpet gets backed up a little bit," he said on air.

While waiting for their turn to walk up the red carpet, Keating and his Aussie wife Storm Keating were chatting to a couple of other celebrities.

"And I see this figure coming, I've kind of got my back to the red carpet, and I see this person moving and they're moving at speed," he said.

"There's no one with them, they're on their own. And there's this flowing kind of Bollywood style dress.

"They walk past us… past the whole queue, straight to the top of the red carpet in front of the photographers. You can just see everybody in the queue … everyone's just looking going, 'Who the f**k doe she think she is?'

"You wouldn't mind if there was one of those American publicist people going, 'Out of the way, excuse me, gotta move,' … But no, on her own, walked straight in, top of the queue, passes everyone else."

Keating's radio co-host, Harriett Scott, clearly knew who the singer was talking about and said, "She's a British actress, (and was in a movie) about a big blockbuster event in WWII, a pivotal moment."

Beckinsale was born in London and starred in the 2001 movie, Pearl Harbor.

"I'm not going to name anyone," Keating said. "We were disappointed because we wanted to really like her but we don't anymore."
