Stone threatens to beat up snappers

British soul star Joss Stone can't wait for a paparazzo to invade her space - because she'll beat the cheeky snapper up.

She tells CNN.com: "We shouldn't be mad at Britney Spears because she didn't wear underwear. That's her choice. She wasn't hurting anybody… She decided not to wear underwear. Maybe she wanted a little breeze.

"We should be mad at the guy who posted it (photo) on the internet… That's a really mean, nasty, malicious, terrible thing to do to somebody.

"If anybody did that to me, I'd knock them on their ass in about five seconds."
