EASTENDERS’ Jessie Wallace launched a vile rant at two men using legal street urinals.
The star, 47, had “seemed off her face” at a gay club when she started shouting at the pair.
She yelled: “Just because you are a man, does not give you the right to whip your c**k out in public.”
Onlookers were left horrified by the outburst — with some fearing for the actress’s health.
One witness told The Sun: “Jessie had a complete meltdown and seemed off her face because she was slurring.”
The star — Kat Slater on the BBC1 soap — was attending an event for LGBT charity Diversity Role Models.
Drag queen Bianca Del Rio and Steps singer Faye Tozer hosted at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern, South London.
An onlooker revealed: “Jessie seemed out of sorts before it even started. She was walking around with some sort of drink saying, ‘I can’t cope’.
“She seemed to be referring to how packed the club was.
“After the show, we saw her in the smoking area, but she wasn’t smoking.
“There are public, pop-up urinals. It’s a small venue with few toilets and used mainly by gay men so it makes sense to have loos outside.
“One poor guy was having a pee and Jessie just launches at him. You couldn’t see anything as they’re curved for privacy.
“He tried to stand up for himself. It was astonishing because there were multiple witnesses. The behaviour was very embarrassing.”
Sources close to Jessie last night said the altercation was a “result of a man splashing urine on her shoes and dress”.
A video at the event posted by street artist Pegasus showed Jessie wiping her face while miming to a Rihanna song, before pulling funny faces.
Last June we told how she was sent home from the British Soap Awards after an all-day bender because bosses feared was too drunk to walk the red carpet. A taxi driver asked: “Drunk again? Shall I get you a sick bag?”

Earlier that year she collapsed drunk on the street, with co-star Lacey Turner overheard claiming she was affected by sunstroke.
Jessie’s partying almost ended her career. In the 2000s she was exposed for using ketamine.
She had counselling after a 2003 drink-drive conviction.
EastEnders declined to comment last night.
