Country singer Jessica Simpson and her best friend, and hair stylist to the stars, Ken Paves were out last night at Madeo enjoying their evening until they were bombarded by the paparazzi.

The scene turned ugly when Ken was bashed in the head by a frenzied photographer’s camera and he ended up with a bad cut and blood running down his face.  Check out the photo here.

Jessica and Ken quickly got to their waiting car and sped off to the hospital where Simpson escorted her friend inside for treatment.  So far no police reports have been filed.  This is likely not the end of this story and we will keep you updated as new developments arise.
