Russell Crowe’s reaction to TMZ’s description of him handling fans: “Clickbait. Everybody got their autograph and selfie, the passage to the hotel was kept free for guests, and I still got to the airport on time. One man, no security. Handled. What’s your problem ?”

I’ve gotta side with Russell on this one.
If anything, he helped the situation, and hopefully will inspire others to follow along in future swarms like this.
Fucking hate TMZ.
TMZ trying to create a problem where there is none
“Can you sign ‘Maximus’?”
“No”
No issue here with how he reacted. Every celebrity should be able to lay down firm boundaries.

“Hey, don’t crowd me, I’ll come to you and sign whatever you want”
TMZ: CROWE VIOLENTLY EXPLODES AT FANS
And are these fans or are they the people that get autographs to sale?
I thought his boundary setting was sexy, idk
TMZ loves creato g drama and scandal. It’s why people who follow the personal lives of celebrities are giving TMZ so much incentive to keep doing what they’re doing.
I remember a clip where he talked about the episode of him that southpark did. He said it cause him to essentially take a step back and examine how he interacts with the world.
I assume TMZ really wants a Fightin Round the World sequel and is tired of him no longer being combative.
He was being entirely reasonable
On top of everything I else I hate the way the TMZ tweet is using those dashes
Love seeing him fight back on the narrative. He set boundaries to fans and they listened and everybody went about their day.
I still remember my brother, who’s a F1 fan, when Fernando Alonso first got his fame, press were nasty with him, complaining about a photo and article where Fernando Alonso was “yelling” at fans, including a kid in a wheel chair… My brother found the video to show me how Fernando Alonso was yelling at the press members because they’re climbing onto the poor kids wheel chair to get a “better picture”.
Paparazzi are crazy. I don’t really feel bad if celebrities are rude to them, 95% of the time, celebrities are doing it for a very valid reason. And those “professionals” hate to be called out for their nasty behaviour, so, most of the time, they twist what actually happened.
TMZ being trash as usual…
