Celebrity Justice
Gerard Will Kiss and Make Up

We were just told Gerard Butler has yet another date -- this time with the L.A. City Attorney, in connection with that pesky incident last month in which G.B. allegedly pummeled a photog.
Gerard Butler
Gerard will appear for an informal hearing in the City Attorney's office in Hollywood and will presumably be told that it's not nice to punch people. We're told the intention is to resolve the matter at the hearing and that it's likely no criminal charges will be filed.

Butler says the photog was chasing him before the incident.

16. I personnally think that Gerry had not hit him hard just to teach him a lesson to pass a message. The actor manage to make the paparrazzo confirmed he was following him before the punsh, I think that was brilliant of Gerard. I understand the job thing for all other jobs in the world but why is photographing people and create dangerous situations a job? I am happy that the law did not tried to set an exemple by charging butler.

17. Ok, I just want to know why everyone is attacking the paparazzi in relevance to this story, but attacks Kanye West when he has an altercation with paparazzi?

18. I agree with all the statements re: stalking. This man has an overbite and it wouldn't take much force to have them pierce the inside of his lip. The thing that struck me so funny was he said that Mr. Butler had hit him 5 times in the face. Has anyone noticed the size of Mr. Butlers biceps? If that man was hit 5 times in the face by Mr. Butler his face would look considerbly different! Gerard is a man with manly arms. Personally, I think that these stars if no one will protect them need to fight back. When they have cameras that can take closeups from as far away as 950 feet, there is no reason that they need to be leaning on cars etc. Hopefully they will pass and enforce laws keeping these stalkers at a reasonable distance and then these very talented actors will have a life and privacy that any human being deserves.

19. I watch shows such as E! news and Entertainment, but not TMZ. Please note that you are not doing yourself any favors by buying photos and video from guys like the jerk who was chasing Mr. Butler. Take the high road and make sure you do not associate with stalkers like this "photojournalist."
