George Clooney Schools Paps on Driving

TMZ obtained video of George Clooney seriously scolding the paparazzi trying to photograph him while he drove his motorcycle through L.A. -- Georgie don't play that!


Clooney was accompanied by girlfriend Sarah Larson, and was so P.O.'d by the aggressive paps -- he pulled over to lash out at some who he said were cutting off other vehicles to get a good shot of him. George is a little touchy -- and who can blame him? He and Larson were involved in a New Jersey crash in September when they were hit while riding a motorcycle -- leaving George banged up and Sarah with a busted ankle.

Even when he's upset -- he's hot.

46. my croft was set afire by george clooney's idiotic attempts of normality.

the cameraman needs every opportunity to succeed and mr. clooney's pretentions betray his condescension and his buffoonery and tomfoolery and so forth and the like.

47. He caused the motorcycle accident in September that injured his girlfriend. She has to be crazy to ever get on a bike with him again.

49. Clooney was completely in the right -- and handled himself more calmly than I would have. These Paps are going to cause a serious accident here in the U.S. soon. We can only hope it's one of them that is seriously injured or killed...

50. I think George Clooney is a classy guy, and he should have been mad. Leave the man alone, the Paps are out of control and scary. How many pics can you have of the same person. I think the police should start arresting paps that get really close. Now days they are hoovering over your car, 50+ cameras clicking in your face, very sad. You could not pay me enough to want to be a celebrity.

51. Who can blame George for getting annoyed? I thought he handled the situation rather well, considering he went down a couple months ago! It's tough enough riding a bike around town without those A-Holes trying to keep up with him!

52. jersey boy, I live in Az and I Do Not split lanes, btw. My bike is an '95 X'R', not an XL, but it handles quite well on the street. I have street tires on it when I street ride and dirt tires for the dirt. I also have a Honda Valkyrie and I'm glad I wasn't riding it, because it just doesn't handle like my XR does. ...Danielle, think what you want, but I am still who I claim to be. If either of you rode a motorcycle on the street, you would understand how dangerous it can be out there, let alone being cut off by irresponsible people. I've never had another instance like that one on the road, but I was an EMT/Firefighter for years and have seen a lot of people killed on bikes from both their fault and by the hand of others. Now my main vehicle is an 80 CJ-7 rock crawler with a full exo-cage because it is so hairy out there. I just hope George doesn't get really hurt or killed because someone wants a photo of them. You can bet that if they caused a wreak, they would be more than happy to take pictures of it all.

53. Since the paparazzi killed Princess Diana in Paris 10 years ago there have been no measures taken to protect people from their harassment.
Britney's kids were looking like the next victims.
Remember, after they helped killed a princess they stood around taking pictures - not helping save the life that fed them.

54. I love George Clooney! He handled himself very well while expressing his anger.......concern for himself and others' safety on our roadways. Thank you, George.

55. Dunno which is the most dangerous..a pap or a cyclist evidently been hitting the bottle. I'd say the motorcyclist.Clooney has been acting awfully looney lately. He needs some kind of rehab..anger mgmt or drug..or alcohol..or something. He ain't actin' right!

56. I'm so glad he told them off!!! It's gotten ridiculous.....just because these people are celebrities it does not mean they are allowed to be stalked and followed dangerously !!!!!! It shouldn't come with the territory I hate when people say it does because they are celebrities!!!!!! There needs to be Laws passed to stop this..........when they are at an event or on the red carpet it's fine but when they are followed it's not ok especially when kids are involved.......Good for you hot George

57. Get a job at Walgreens if you can't stand the invasive press...I'm so sick of these A List actors griping about their lack of privacy..Here's an idea, stay in your gazillion dollar mansion and ride your bike on your lush green 40 acres of rolling hills, walled in and gated property! Or go back to Lake Como and enjoy a pap free lifestyle there..try this, everythime you see a pap, throw him a kiss and say thank you..the more pics you guys take the more I stay current and rich..

58. Anyone who flips off Fabio is s**t by me. George can get stuffed. He's gross anyway.

59. Love the crotch shot. George is H-O-T !

60. Way to go, George! As a fellow motorcyclist (and fellow scooterist too, if George is still riding that '65 Lammy I saw him on) I applaud him schooling those ambulance-chasers. As if the roads weren't dangerous enough for us, you have to deal with guys who - ooooh! Wanna take your peeekshur!! - and drive like their cars can do no harm so they can maybe get a blurry photo of George wiping his nose. The man is redeemed in my eyes. Next time he does something all Hollywood-pretentious I'm going to remember this video and give him the benefit of the doubt.
