X17 XCLUSIVE - Jodie Foster's Rep Denies Assault Claim
Posted on Fri Jun 11, 2010 11:50 AM PDT
Jodie Foster had a run-in at The Grove in Los Angeles with a minor who was taking her picture. However, her rep is denying that she assaulted the "young" photographer.
An LAPD police report, taken on May 29 at 1:50pm, gave the following description of the incident:
- "Vict while at The Grove saw susp and began to take pics of susp with his camera then walked to the valet area of The Grove. Susp followed vict, poked him on his chest, grabbed vict by his left arm causing visible injury."
Online reports are claiming that the "17-year old", who was allegedly with his girlfriend at the time, saw Foster in the parking lot and took her picture. That's when she allegedly pushed and shoved him leaving scratches and bruises on his arm.
Foster's rep tells X17online exclusively:
- "The young man was most definitely a professional paparazzi. He had a large camera bag and a 1000 mm telephoto lens. He tailed Jodie and her young sons from the movie theater to valet parking. He crowded her and her children and took photos of them the whole time. She touched him on the elbow in an attempt to take him aside to talk to him and tell him to stop. He scared the kids."
The LAPD media relations department confirms to X17online that a misdemeanor battery report was taken against Jodie Foster, but they refused to elaborate on the incident. However they did tell us that there will be "no further investigation" into the matter.
This isn't the first time Jodie has gotten testy with photographers -- several years ago the actress completely lost it when one photog snapped pictures of her out and about in Los Angeles, and though there weren't assault or battery charges filed, the lensman certainly got one heck of a verbal smackdown!
Who do you believe .... Jodie or the photographer?

Its mind blowing how these paparazzi can file for assualt and shit against celebrity that they stalk like animals 24/7. I understand they have a job to do and it comes with territory but you have to admit these paparazzi are just disgusting, immoral, pathetic creatures. Wonder how they would feel if they are the one being stalk with cameras constantly.
por kid got bitch slapped by a dyke
People want to be celebs, they need to put up with the paps. If they don't like it they should stop media whoring.
12:37, this site is a paparazzi blog. You do know by coming here you are part of the problem. Stop the obsession with celebs and the paparazzi would not have a job.
Dina is always bitching about the paps and this site.
Yet her worthless whore daughter would be nowhere without the tabloids.
Its not like Lindsay has had a successful film in years.
Jody give me a ring Will take the case!
Our kids can have play dates together
Um, that guy does NOT look 17 years old !!
Jodie is not one to mess with. she's one tough chick.

Jodie is an ICON, she can bitch slap whomeveer she wants!! You go girl!!
SOMEBODY SHOULD CRACK HER HEAD OPEN, THIS BIATCH IS NARCISISTIC, EGOCENTRIC, RACIST AND A SNOB. SHE SHOUL UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN YOU ARE A CELEBRITY PEOPLE WANT TO TAKE YOUR PICTURE. IT'S A GIVEN, ITS THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR THE MILLIONS YOU MAKE PER MOVIE. EVERY TIME YOU SIGN A MOVIE CONTRACT YOUR PRIVACY GOES OUT THE WINDOW. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THE PAPS YOU SHOULD GO AS FAR AWAY FROM L.A. AS POSSIBLE, MIDGET, PLAIN, ALBINO BITCH. B-ITCH
She is getting uglier each year.Its about time she comes out out the closet.

Sniff, smells like mental goat gurl.
Paps are just making a living. It's tough out there and the celebs don't give a sh*t about anyone but themselves.
OK, wouldn't YOU be creeped out by some guy like that following you around with a camera? After seeing photos of how scummy the paps look, I can't blame celebrities for hating it.
I think I may be done browsing celeb blogs. I don't want to be part of the problem anymore.
