Rapper Stormzy called Theresa May a liar last night by describing as being a 'paigon' after he was presented with the best solo artist prize at the GQ Men of the year awards. 

The 24-year-old was given the award by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and he was quick to mention the Prime Minister in his acceptance speech.  

At first, some fans believed the grime artist called her a 'pig' and a 'pagan' but others were quick to point out he said 'paigon' - slang for someone who lies and pretends to be a friend.

Mr Corbyn, 57, could be seen giggling on the stage behind him as the grime artist continued his speech at the Tate Modern in London. Stormzy said: 'It's so incredible to be here for everyone. Big up Jeremy Corbyn. 

'I do want to use this to say that Theresa May is a paigon and you know what we're doing right now. 

'Yeah, trust me. Yeah, it's awkward when I say that isn't it, yeah?'

He added: 'GQ man of the year award, solo artist of the year award. I'm so blessed to be here. I just want to thank god, thank my mum, thank my whole team.

'I can't even believe it. Your boy is on the cover of GC, south London boy, this is incredible. Thank you so much, man. Love.'
