I'm using Magento 1.7 and I have added
{{var order.customer_email}}
under
{{var order.getBillingAddress().format('html')}}
to display email address of customers when they place order. Test order was successful and everything worked perfect. However, when the customer placed the order,
---Please Select ---
is displayed next to address -

The same thing ---Please Select --- appeared in Shipping Information (without email address as I did not add email variable there).
Can anybody tell me please why this is showing there and how to solve it as I did not delete anything from the code, just added code for email address.
Thank you in advance for help.
