Jude Law assaults female pap
These are shots of Jude Law assaulting a female photographer on the way to his car while leaving the Automat Bar in London last night. Scope out the pics then get a load of the bullshit Jude's publicist passed along to The Sun:
"This is all nonsense. Last night's incident was an accident. Jude was blinded by the camera flashes when he left the restaurant, raised his hand to shield himself and inadvertently struck somebody standing very close. He apologised and left. Pictures of this sort can often be misleading."
Yeah, it's always misleading to see a man walk up to a woman and smack her in the back of the head. I mean, after closer inspection, it's obvious he meant to hand her a bouquet of flowers then compliment her hair. See how he has to touch it with his fist? That means he likes it.

Not in favor of hitting women but she took one for the team. All the paps deserve to have their asses handed to them.
7. Bob Smith - July 23, 2009 12:40 PM
I'd wipe the smirk off this pansey asses face with a backhand of my own.

nobody wants that shit right in their face. you want that lame job that's the shit you gotta deal with for being an annoying stalker

Decide to be a stupid asshole stalker ~ Get Hit. It's pretty simple. Besides no real woman would be a paparazzi anyway -so she can just take it like a man ~
13. herm - July 23, 2009 12:50 PM
Yeah that's right, get the fuck out of my way woman, and go make me a sammich!
14. Mack - July 23, 2009 12:51 PM
When a pack of dogs is trying to bite you and you slap the closest one it's a good move.
I don't see the difference here.
HITTING people is always bad. A love tap like that seems like a reasonable way to say "Whoa, back out of my personal space."

It actually does look like he could be trying to shield his eyes
17. Sunny - July 23, 2009 12:55 PM
What the hell is your problem? There's a guy with a camera standing face to face right in front of him, the photos support the story completely.

I love how Paparazzi get all insulted when people get in THEIR face for once. Give me a break. I'm so glad I'm not famous because I probably would have done a lot worse..
22. Harold - July 23, 2009 12:57 PM
He was trying to save her camera from breaking. They haven't made a camera, yet, which can handle his level of handsomeness. And, I'm straight!
Jude Law: Bloody hell, miss, you almost destroyed your expensive camera.
Paparazzi: I am not worthy! Will you sleep with me?
JL: Sure, I've got 30 secs on my calendar for a quick shag, but then I've got some supermodels to get to.
Win.
23. ROUGH daddy - July 23, 2009 12:57 PM
lol "Alfie" is a toughy with the broads, no surprise there...
24. despicablewriter - July 23, 2009 1:08 PM
looks believable. even if he DID smack her in the head...paparazzi are to be guided out of the wound slowly by burning their bodies so that they won't leave their mouthparts inside the host.
TL;DR: The paparazzi are all douchebags anyway, kudos for the smack attack.
25. The Truth - July 23, 2009 1:14 PM
Pretty much agree with what everyone else here has said: paps deserve a smacking or worse.
Whoever's writing for this site has to get their head out of their ass and realize no one feels sorry for anyone who feels justified in stalking and invading the privacy of others.
He actually looks like he might be shielding his face in the photo too. Though I'm hoping he really meant to hit her.
26. Annie Loves Anal - July 23, 2009 1:22 PM
Duck hunt! Yay!
27. Wilko - July 23, 2009 1:22 PM
Try bringing a big ol' camera out and taking some average joe's picture while he's leaving a bar and see how many times you get smacked.
28. stickykeys - July 23, 2009 1:25 PM
Doesn't this seem sexist? If he smacked a male photog upside the head, would it be newsworthy?
29. Lolocaust - July 23, 2009 1:27 PM
The pity you're readily throwing out to this stalker bitch is pathetic, Fish.
Even if he DID hit her on purpose - which, from these pictures, looks very unlikely -she deserves a lot worse than that. These fucking swine want to follow people around and swarm them to try and get a picture to sell for a quick buck? They fucking deserve whatever they get. Here's to hoping that next time he sees a group of them, he swerves his car into the mess of flashes and kills every one of them.
Whether this was an accident or a 'get the fuck out of my way', I commend him.
30. The Jerk - July 23, 2009 1:27 PM
I dont see anything wrong with this and I personally dont believe that papz should be allowed to sue should they get hit for getting up close into someones face or business, whether they are a celebrity or not. It's like someone taking a stick and poking it at a lion, it only takes so long till you piss the lion off and he eats you alive while youre screaming how its not fair.
31. slap my bitch - July 23, 2009 1:34 PM
I don't give a crap about Jude Law but even less than him are scuzzy paps. I hope he punched the bitch on purpose. I frankly would have love to see him go back for the kill and kick her in the cunt.
I don't know if he did it on pupose or if it was an accident but looking through pic # 1 - 4 it sure does appear to me that he pimp slapped the ho on purpose.
He seems very angry in the photos with that hint of "that's right bitch!"
32. Sinamon - July 23, 2009 1:40 PM
it's obvious he didn't hit her on purpose. in the second pic, he still has his arm up in the same position, which is not what you do after you strike someone. i love how she's trying to look like she's all disoriented and dizzy....i am sure she'll claim he gave her a concussion. am not a huge fan of jude law but objectively, he didn't intentionally hit this woman.
33. Mama Pinkus - July 23, 2009 1:42 PM
not a huge Jude Law fan but I do believe he did not intentionally slug this gal, no matter how fucking annoying she was
34. Ryan the Canadian - July 23, 2009 1:47 PM
It is a love tap. We wants to make her his Nanny.
35. Delicious Irony - July 23, 2009 1:50 PM
Paps are scum of the earth and deserve any beatings they get. Think of how much better the world would be if you could round up every pap and drop them into an active volcano.
36. Tom K - July 23, 2009 1:51 PM
I don't know why everyone gets mad at the paparazzi. If you are getting paid millions to act or sing it comes with the profession. It's the price you pay, let them take your picture and ignore them and not answer questions like most celebrities do. You don't have to back hand a bitch across the back of the head to get your point across. lol Accident, yeah right, good cover.
37. Sinamon - July 23, 2009 1:54 PM

....is that a Karate chop in the first picture? aaaawwwwwesome! I think he totally chi-pwn'd that dirty bitch. They call it working girl for a reason lady, hit the street corner or take off your shoes and get back in the kitchen! Jesus, bitches are light on the Moo Duk Kwon skills these days....
39. Crabby Old Guy - July 23, 2009 2:01 PM
So, because it was a female pap - does that make this a "pap smear"?
Her OB/GYN is gonna be pissed - that's an office visit charge that won't be billed this month!
40. Wyatt - July 23, 2009 2:01 PM
Pathetic scum like paparazzi deserve no better. She's lucky Jude Law doesn't file a harassment suit against her. What worthless human beings.

48. Lissa - July 23, 2009 2:41 PM
You gotta love the Paps trying to make up a bs story for some cash. These people need to get a life.
Let's replay:
Pic 1-Jude tries to stop the cameraman behind the woman from taking his pic.
He may have bumped the woman.
Pic 2-disheveled and blinded by all the flashing, he has realized what has happened and obviously apologized.
Pic 5 & 6-He now ALLOWS-with no blocking of pics or his face-the same woman that he supposedly abused-who looks perfectly fine by the way-take pics of him because he obviously felt bad for accidentally hitting her.
All in All, the paps seem to forget that pictures don't lie. What a bunch of scum bags.
49. Natalie - July 23, 2009 2:48 PM
Don't bit the hand that feeds you. With the millions he makes every year, he can deal with the paparazzi.
50. nun - July 23, 2009 2:59 PM

the bitch deserved it.
51. miau - July 23, 2009 3:02 PM

miau
52. David - July 23, 2009 3:02 PM
What is this "deal with the paps" bullshit... these aren't the friendly photogs at that mall that take a pic of you with Sanata. They CHASE people, block their paths, crowd their vehicles, and spew insane comments just trying to get a rise out of people. It's harassment.
Oh and I buy the accident story.. I've had something similar were I backhanded someone on accident.
53. Natalie - July 23, 2009 3:02 PM
Irony = hating on the paparazzi, when you read The Superficial.
54. Jordan - July 23, 2009 3:04 PM
49. They make money off of the work they do not stupid gossip magazines and creepy pictures. Not exactly biting the hand that feeds, it's just hitting a Bitch. You sound bitter...

Looks like he turned and asked her if she was ok to me.
57. STFU Defenders - July 23, 2009 3:40 PM
These motherfuckers have hunted, chased and even caused people to be killed. And still there's no stopping them! And to come on this site to look at some girl in a bikini who isn't being surrounded or attacked is not the same as what these paps do. They are sick parasites and need to be dealt with a la the film 'Paparazzi'.
58. Senior Pepe - July 23, 2009 3:46 PM
@53... Right on the spot!
I love how EVERYONE here hates the paps, but yet if it weren't for them, this site wouldn't exist.
// Get over it
// They don't want YOUR pic, losers
59. Guy - July 23, 2009 4:16 PM
Funny how this site defends the paparazzi, calling Jude's publisist's statement "bullshit", when it actually looks to be the truth.
60. uh - July 23, 2009 4:22 PM
Their story seems plausible, and I love Jude Law. So...yeah.
61. Lain - July 23, 2009 5:17 PM
Well, I have no saw about Jude. But the pap's lights ARE blinding. And seeing how his hands are awkwardly places, I can see it happening.
62. Lain - July 23, 2009 5:18 PM
say*, *placed
Also, wasn't Jude Law's hair thinning? It looks fuller now.
63. willis - July 23, 2009 5:40 PM

It was an accident. He had been very patience with photographers every nigth outside the theater, they are out of control. The ligths of the flashes are annoying and you can't see anything. I think They are using her genre (female) to make him look bad, and that is disgusting. All my life I have been fighting with the fact that female aren't diferentt to male at work, and people like her make us take a step back.

68. Bitch - July 23, 2009 6:53 PM
Who cares, serves the bitch right, its interesting because in reality her head assaulted Jude's hand.... he should sue the crackwhore or wear a cast on his hand.
69. Joe - July 23, 2009 7:25 PM
Photo caption: "Looks like Jude Law had to pop a bitch".
I'm sorry, invasion of personal space is an assault, and done with deliberate intent. Hitting is absolutely okay in this case.
I am no celeb, but was caught up in a crowd once around a celeb, and a pap thought I was with him. The pap not only went as far as to hold me/push me back in order to get my picture. That's a big no-no. I grabbed his leg, put him to the ground, and warned him never to touch me. (and of course, all the other paps starting taking pics.)
When the guy got up, he was all I'm calling the cops and going to sue", until his buddies said "He's not with (the celeb). He muttered "aw shit", and ran after the celeb.
I'm not a big physical violence kind of guy, but you invade the space (my rule is arms length), you get treated accordingly.
70. rook - July 23, 2009 7:36 PM
Its not the pap that deserve it its the goddamn stars. They are all a bunch of arrogant pricks. I would love to be a paparazzi just long enough to get one of them annoyed at me then hit em with some mace and a night stick. Then take rolls of film.
71. I get stabby - July 23, 2009 7:37 PM
its not ok for men to hit women (and men hitting men isn't much better). Didn't your mothers teach you that? I understand that Jude felt under a lot of pressure, but hitting someone is not acceptable. Just flip'em the bird and move on.
72. Captain Untouchable - July 23, 2009 8:14 PM

74. Val - July 23, 2009 8:25 PM
I don't think he meant to do that, he looks kinda confused on the second picture...
Besides, it's not like he made her bleed or something... It was just an accident... And he keeps looking back on the other shots, so maybe he was just trying to figure out what just happened
75. Crappola - July 23, 2009 8:35 PM
Apparently, The Superficial Writer got this one wrong.
Eat it Superficial Writer!
76. Prof - July 23, 2009 8:40 PM
I laughed out loud when I saw these pics. Jude Law is like a comic book super villain that does fuck up evil things to people just because it's an evil fucked up thing to do. Cheats, sleeps with nannies, or tries to kill Bat-man in an elaborate easily escapable death trap it's all good with this guy! Slaps the pap in the back of the head for being weak and annoying in pic 1, complete look of disgust in pic 2 for the weak ignorant masses, makes his getaway in pics 5 & 6! He even gives us classic evil signature posing & maniacal laughter for masses just before he 4, 7, & 8... this guy needs a arch nemesis pronto!
77. debisis - July 23, 2009 9:03 PM
i can't stand dorky lookin Brit actors doing obnoxious stuff, even if was the pap's fault for flashing too close. he acted like a coward. hate to say it, typical euro trash at it's finest.

The paps need to be maced, tasered and kicked down the stairs at every opportunity.
I fully support Jude Law.

85. Paps are bad now? - July 24, 2009 3:38 AM
The commenters saying paps deserve it must be completely deluded.
What kind of photos do you think are on this website? It's all pap work!
If you don't like it, don't friggen support it numbnuts!
Hitting anyone is not on in civilised society, and that commenter 'joe' must be a fun fellow passenger on the tube!
86. new - July 24, 2009 3:48 AM

too bad he couldn't hit her harder. he's too gentle.
87. Huh? - July 24, 2009 4:57 AM

Yeah, same thing for the paps as well. They make a living by stalking people, obviously they can handle a backhand or two.
To #85
And invading privacy is civilised?
SMACK ME, JUDE LAW!

Smack my bitch up! Smack my bitch up!...
The paps are way out of control. He should have smacked them with a 4x4 truck. Bunch of rabid vermin.
I agree with #87... I got a nice bottom you can smack, Jude. We should all be so lucky to get a little smack from the Law. Hhhhhhmmmmm... Sassy!
90. hotterthanu - July 24, 2009 7:11 AM
To #53, #58, #85 - Just because we love this site does not mean we agree we the aggressive nature that the paparazzi sometimes use to get their picture.
There is still such a thing as personal space and pictures taken such as these (in public space) can be taken without someone shoving a camera right in your face. That is what camera lens is for - to zoom in to the action without disturbing the subject.

98. Eloisa - July 24, 2009 8:17 PM
Please stop saying she is a woman, because is the most sexist thing i never read…a paparazzo is a paparazzo no matter what genre is. It was an accident, as you can notice if you see all the pictures about the incident, not only 2 or 3 the sites are showing now…..but, of course, if a paparazzo said it was on purpose it’s must be true! yeah, sure.

108. Fluffy Squirrel - July 27, 2009 12:47 PM
Bang out of order hitting a pap female/male, if you live in the public eye this is the price you have to pay-and whacking a pap is not good cos you end up looking like an a hole!
109. Johnny Lava - July 27, 2009 3:51 PM
@ 8 and @ 53 perfect words. You put that fucking camera in my face and catch me in the wrong mood and your going to get slapped that's that. It's just something they have to live with. The actor has to adjust to the attention, and the pap's have to adjust to the rejection every now and then

Why is she holding her temple when she got hit in the back of the head?
111. Lillie - July 31, 2009 9:46 AM
Accidents happen. All the blood suckers are taken pictures and he can't see. She was in his way and when he raised his hand to shield his face. The picture clearly shows that. Also it shows him hitting (by accident) the back of the head, why would be be holding the front of her head? Just another blood sucker wanting to make money off someone else.
