Hugh Grant is under arrest

Hugh Grant arrested for tossing baked beans

Hugh Grant was arrested last night after attacking a paparazzo with a flurry of baked beans and kicks on Tuesday. Photographer Ian Whittaker claims Hugh flipped out after an innocent request for a picture:

“It looked like he had been out for a morning jog. I asked him if he would give me a smile because he was standing with his head down. But he must have been having a bad day because he started chasing me down the street. He gave me a couple of kicks in the legs and I think he kneed me. When I told him I had two children, he snarled, ‘I hope they die of fucking cancer’. That really upset me and is why I went to the police to make a complaint of assault against him. He was out of order.” (Source)

You just know this story will eventually make its way to some poor starving village in Kenya: “The Westerners, they have so much food they use baked beans as weapons.”

    I’m leaning towards Hugh on this one. Those paparazzi can be bothersome at times.

    I see nothing but people experimenting a sport promised to a bright future.
    I mean, you just need beans and a camera, it’s genius.
    Well, I give it to you, from these pics it needs some improvements, but hey, gimme a break, do you think someone came up with baseball overnight?

    WHO does he think he is? One guy asking for a picture is not threatening, and it’s no reason to freak out and get violent. Hugh ought to be glad someone is interested in taking his picture. Did his new movie with Drew Barrymore do any good? No? I didn’t think so.

    Damn, the photographers in England must eat well. Pete Doherty provides the ketchup, Hugh Grant ponies up baked beans…

    Seriously, I wouldn’t believe a word one of these photographers says. They are pretty much known for trying anything to get a picture.
