Nick vs. Photog: Stop Talking Sh*t!

Note to photogs: Don't mess with Nick Lachey's girl!

Nick and GF Vanessa Minnillo arrived at La Guardia Airport in NYC on Friday to the usual group of paparazzi. According to Nick's rep, one aggressive paparazzo made a "nasty" remark that was directed at Vanessa. The remark, the rep says, was made specifically to cause a confrontation that would generate a good photo op and profit for the agency. The photo agency says hold the phone- it was Nick who was the aggressor! They say the video shows the singer approaching the pap, grabbing him by the neck and pushing him back in the terminal, while saying in his ear, "I'm going to f**king kill you if I ever see you again!"

Not true, says Lachey's rep. He says the video clearly shows Nick walking Vanessa to their waiting car, approaching the pap, shaking his hand, and placing his hands not on the guy's neck, but his shoulder. Nick merely wanted to "make sure the photog knew that his comments directed at Vanessa were not appropriate." The rep says there was no threat made and he was simply defending his fair lady's honor.

What really happened? Watch the video and decide for yourself!

33. It's pretty clear by her behavior with the photogs lately Vanessa is ashamed of those pics.
Maybe she should just laugh about them and get over it
Nick is cuffing that photog, but we don't know what the guy said.
Most likey he didnt have to say much.

36. I'd like to see Nick try that with me. I'd grab his man boobs and make him cry like the little girl he is. It's easy to push around a 140 pound nerd with a camera, but lets see Nicky come the Van Nuys and meet me. I'll rain down elbows on his frost tips!

37. This smells of a publicity stunt to me. Lachey's career is in the toilet and he'll do anything to generate some interest to add more minutes to his 15 that HAVE ALREADY EXPIRED! Hope he can afford to live in the depressed Cincinnati, where he supposedly is from. Cincy is in a time warp. Their attitude is in the 1800's.

38. kelly, i agree with u that nick should be happy, he deserve it, but his girlfriend is not helping, she's the one making stupid things and going to the media and talk about their relation, she needs to shut up or he'll break up with her

40. The Photog guy is small and young ! How embarrassing for a man what almost 50 years old?
Couldn't Nick find a small lady photographer to make his macho moves on? The knife pics are not worth looking stupid over!

42. It appears that Nick discussed manners with the intrusive photographer............ no harm, no foul and he acted like a gentleman per the video.

If the photographers don't want trouble, perhaps they could just "ask" for a few photo's and then give the couple some privacy.

43. from the video, and the photographer's body language (who clearly thought nick was being friendly) i'd have to say that nick's rep is being honest...

clearly a non-threatening incident. kudos to nick!! never really been a fan, but it's nice to see some gentlemanly ways....

44. Nick needs to find a girl that does not like knives so much. Remember she had practice with LiLo so he might be the next to have it taken to him.

45. Nick, was not the agressor, but he better get use to it. If you are a star, this is what is coming your way. He clearly directed the man back inside the door, and said something to him.

Point being, Nick is going to have to face this every time he is out in public. The best thing to do, is just get in your car, and avoid confrontation. These guys have nothing to lose, but you do. If you lose your temper, and get in a fight, guess who will get sued, or go to jail.

Now your girl, was once wild, so many dont see her in the light you do. Thats no excuse to harm her, but these were just words. You made a deliberate point to go and talk to the guy. Kind of pointless. Just drive away.
