Jodie Foster Says Assault Story Is Untrue – Teen Was A Paparazzi
Jodie Foster’s camp is firing back at the allegations stating that she assaulted a 17-year-old “fan” for trying to take her picture. Jodie’s publicist says he was a member of the paparazzi.
“The young man was most definitely a professional paparazzo,” Foster publicist Jennifer Allen tells E! News. “He had a large camera bag and a 1000mm telephoto lens. He tailed Jodie and her young sons from the movie theater to valet parking. He crowded her and her children and took photos of them the whole time.”
His behavior was scaring her children and so Jodie tried to tell him to back off.
“She touched him on the elbow in an attempt to take him aside to talk to him and tell him to stop,” Allen says.
The boy’s dad says that his son is not a paparazzi.
What do you think? I know there are plenty of photographers nowadays who are minors – remember that one kid who was really young and pursuing celebs? Ugh. Do you think they were hoping she’d snap since he’s a minor and she could potentially get into trouble?
