Lee Ryan quit 'Hells Kitchen' after a furious row with head chef Marco Pierre White.The former Blue singer finally walked out of the hit reality cooking show when he refused to kill a langoustine - a type of shellfish - by twisting of its head.He told fiery Marco, who is teaching ten celebrities how to become chefs, it was against his beliefs.Lee said: "I am down with vegetables but I ain't killing things."The pair had previously had a row after Lee wouldn't wear his chef's hat, with the pop star saying: "I won't wear one chef's hat - I am not following regulations."The 24-year-old was also worried he may damage his fingers by carrying on, meaning he could no longer play musical instruments.He told one of the Sous Chefs: "If I cut my finger any more I'll be screwing. I play piano and guitar - I'm not having my fingers f***ed."

After leaving the show, Lee explained: "This isn't my job - it's a TV programme. It's OK but I am not 100% enjoying it. The best bit of my day is when people leave me the f**k alone.

"My job is to get on with it and hopefully not lose my temper."
