James Gandolfini Explodes

From the second he arrived at the Waverly Inn in NY, a smoldering James Gandolfini was lookin' to pick a fight -- and then, suddenly, he did.

James Gandolfini: Click to watch
What seems to be an unprovoked Tony Soprano exploded on several paparazzi -- slamming his car door, dropping cuss bombs and, with an angry scowl on his face, violently shoving one of the paps into the middle of the street.

When reminded how pap friendly the restaurant was and asked why he even came, Galdolfini simply said "I forgot" and took off.

16. @OMG!

Yeah, I love it when people come to a website that's dependent on paps and say how much they hate them. Don't they realize that all of the photos on this website were obtained by paps?

17. This looks so bad on Gandolfini. Who the $%&* does he think he is to be treating people like that? Very ungracious on his part... very uncool.

19. Did some of you even watch the video? The paps were trying to bait him into a fight. I'm surprised he only shoved one of them. Kudos to Mr. Gandolfini for showing some restraint and driving away.

20. TMZ are you following celebrities to the men’s room again? TMZ you have weird fetishes. Gandolfini had to use the men’s room and you retards were in the way because TMZ loves men’s rooms like George Michael likes men’s rooms.

Also photos celebrities picking their noses is nasty too, but you post them anyhow.

25. I think the point here, is that why are paps taing his picture? I don't ever see any pictures or footage of this guy UNLESS it is on here, snorting and gasping for breath, and mumbling stuff because he's so out of shape like when he fought and killed Ralph, SNORT SNORT. I mean what do these paps send a pic of him and get $15 it, and then they put in some forgotten file. Maybe I don't read enough tabloids...yeah, that's it.

29. This Gandolfeenie fellow has a demon in him. He has serious problems. He should seek professional treatment as he is always unhappy. Someone like him who lives in luxury and is in the top 1% of the wealth pyramid should be nicer and more tolerant of his fellow human beings than the average guy.

30. He was embarrassed nobody took his fat ass seriously and left. He really ought to snap out of character, his series been over for a while now.
