Here's 2 youtube videos that have been posted recently (Apologies if they've been posted already). The first one shows poor Luke being annoyed by some idiot filming him at what looks like point blank range at LAX airport I'd hate to be an actor as it would drive me crazy being stalked like this. The second video is fuzzy as someone's filming a big screen when Luke's accepting the TFHF award for Rushmore. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdBoeHCGweQwww.youtube.com/watch?v=zEZTZfiFcJYSorry, copy and paste links. |

Where was he waiting? Couldn't have been some VIP section, since the people waiting w/him looked like regular people. That woman in pink was sweet to try & help him. He didn't thank her although he should have. She was really defending him saying she'd stand in the way of that guy's picture! That was great! I totally don't blame him for cursing that guy out. That idiot should have gotten the message to buzz off after Luke first started cursing at him. That would have been enough to send anyone running. Actually we shouldn't even look at this on You Tube since if it gets a lot of hits, it only encourages this type of behavior from vultures like this guy. If Meg was w/him, she might have defended her man like that feisty girl in pink did! Wonder if the girl in pink is a Wilsonette?

I think your link is broken - so here's another just in case. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdBoeHCGweQThe madder the got the more the guy wanted to film him. Many folks were trying to protect him - that was sweet. I wonder who the lady with the Nextel phone was? Tardy airport VIP staff or his assistant... Hmmmm He was at baggage claim, but never picked up baggage. I seem to remember Luke saying he likes to ship his stuff ahead so he doesn't have to carry baggage. I love that the lady outside tried to protect him too.. What a temper though!!! Can you imagine ever being on the receiving end of that simmering anger? |

I vote for Luke and not because I enjoy his movies either. He had every right to be angry...He did ask many times for the guy to leave him alone to no avail. Good for Luke in standing up for himself and his family.
Movie stars or not they still deserve respect in any area of their life, gossip is what it is...everyone has an opinion, most folks read it on the web etc. etc. but clearly the guy making the video did not show any respect and his video should be removed from You Tube, I think....Wonder if you can make such a request to have it removed. Does anyone know? #dontknow#

I agree with you, there's no excuse for that level of intrusion. He could have filmed Luke from afar but that clearly wasn't his motive. I see now I should have put these videos in 'Luke's videos' but didn't check first so I'll add them later. I found another short video of Luke speaking at the AMGEN tour in February and he looks much happier here. The video starts after the ads. www.etonline.com/news/2009/02/71099/index.html |

I'm not up to watching the (airport) video at all, especially since Luke gets really upset in it.  I was wondering though, can you all tell who shot the video? Was it a paparazzi? If so, does it say which company they are with? Or was it just an individual out to make a nuisance of himself? |

It had the guy's name in it, but I don't know if he's a paparazzi or what?

I think he is paparazzi in training... not a real pap. But he did say something about doing his 'job'.
It must be weird to be famous and treated like an attraction at the zoo.

Thanks for the info ladies!
Iluvtexas, I don't think that's enough to get him taken off YouTube, though. Unless he's done something that violates their terms of agreement...
