Dance music star Basshunter has appeared in court to deny two alleged sex assault charges.

The DJ, who's real name is Jonas Erik Altbert, was in court over allegations that he attacked two fans at a gig at Kitty's nightclub in Fife.

Twenty-six-year-old Altberg turned up at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court with his manager to deny the charges and was released on bail.

Jonas, who came fourth in last year's Celebrity Big Brother, is alleged to have grabbed one girl by the hair and pushed her head towards his groin.

He has also been accused of pulling the girl's dress up inside the nightclub.

Professionally known as Basshunter, the star had a number one single in 2007 with his hit Now You're Gone.

He is due to stand trial in May.
