Liev Schreiber Chases Down "Scumbag" Photogs

Posted Aug 20th 2007 2:55PM by TMZ Staff

Liev Schreiber went berserk yesterday, when paparazzi got too close for his liking -- and violently shoved one and chased down the rest. Liev me alone!


The frustrated and limping star of the "Scream" flicks went off on a photog after walking up the stairs of Taverna Tony's, where he set down his baby's carrier, turned around and pushed the pap while screaming, "You f**king disgust me, it's a f**king child and I have one f**king foot!" It didn't end there though -- Schreiber then chased the rest of the photogs on scene, screaming at them and making them retreat to their cars.

When Schreiber and baby mama Naomi Watts emerged from the restaurant, they were taunted by paps, with one yelling at the actor, "You better sit down before I knock your ass out!" This time, Liev remained calm and got into the car, but Naomi gave the photog a piece of her mind -- with a finger.

91. "If all they wanted was a photo...."\

Are you serious? You wouldnt kick someones ass if they came up to you and started taking photos of your kids?

The video was coming very close to watching something of the Discovery Channel. A daddy lion chasing off the hyenas. Cause thats what most paps are, hyenas.

93. These papparazzo apologists crack me up. How's this for a deal? I'll respect a papparazzi's right to stalk a celebrity who's out with his newborn, and I'll respect a celebrity's right to defend his newborn and beat the living crap out of that papparazzi?

94. Your reporters from TMZ.com disgust me for they way they interfered with Naomi, Liev and child. I will be sure to boycott your website in future. Obviously the rules of etiquette and privacy don't mean anything to your publication.

Thankfully in Australia we are alot more laid back than Hollywood. They can relax here anytime.

96. A long time ago, Natalie Wood got it right. When exiting a famous restaurant, all with her hid their faces and ducked, and she just smiled beautifully.....and the cameras snapped looking great....why don't the stars just do that....

97. I don't blame him at all. He is probably tired of being bothered by these people. I can't imagine what it must feel like being looked at and photographed all the time. These people are ACTORS and are ACTING on film in a story that is made up by someone else. They have real lives and don't deserve to be followed or harassed all the time. Good for him! And Naomi is cool for flipping the finger at the bastards! HA!

99. The paps need to back off, especially when children are around. The taunting and "in-your-face" behavior of the paps are causing major problems. Unfortunately, it's going to end in violence before something is done. The paps have way too much freedom in disrupting other peoples lives. Taking pictures is one thing, being obnoxious is another. Back off, paps, before the inevitable happens.

102. If these a--holes weren't carrying cameras, they'd be arrested for stalking. These paps think that celebrities surrendered their rights when they became public figures. Whether or not celebrities deserve any respect makes no difference; they are still human beings.

103. I live in LA and see the way these guys constantly harass celebrities, including the kids. It's shameful. Anyone who thinks Liev should "have more class" or that celebrites think they're "too good to be photographed" is ignorant and should try walking a mile in their shoes.

To the pap - you're pigs. Get a job where you can make a positive contribution to society and earn some respect for yourselves.

104. Look these stars get paid gazillions..They have lives you can only dream about..Putting up with the Paps is part of their job..I mean come on everyone has to put up with stuff they don't like..At least they get to do it with nice big bank accounts, trips to the most fabulous places on the planet (ok not the Jolie-Pitts) the very best restaurants and clubs, shop till they drop, lavish homes and gardens ETC...You get it?
