X17 XCLUSIVE: Johnny Depp's Bodyguard Beats Up Paps!
Posted on Tue Oct 14, 2008 09:15 AM PDT


Talk about Johnny drama! We're used to seeing celebs and their bodyguards get testy with the paps, but we haven't seen something like this in a while!
Johnny Depp was walking into an office in Beverly Hills yesterday, and his bodyguard determinedly wrestled with photogs in an attempt to block the shot of the star. As the photogs left, the overzealous bodyguard followed them to their car and that's where the real drama started! Check out the video below!

HaHa....I think it's freaking hilarious! You get what you deserve!
the paps can dish it out harassing people, but they cant take it
i think its funny, because these paparazzi are freaking annoying...if you dont want to get fucked up...just leave
GOOD
you guys from x17 are sucks!
acorn + obama = stealing election.
Ha Ha how does it feel. Being on the other side repeatedly asking them to stop and getting your plea's ignored. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
All the more reason to love Johnny Depp!!
I LOVE THAT!!!! GOOD GOING!!!!
When are you gonna see that NO ONE is going to EVER be on the side of your SCUM stalkers? It will come down on you all some day. It will be the end of these "JOBS" -- laughable!
Unfortunately most celebrities don't use real bodyguards. They hire thugs that practice "Bodyguarding". Real bodyguards would never of went back after the paparazzi like that. The guy should sue Johnny, the guard and the company, which I doubt there is one.
maybe the paps will get a clue and stop harrassing celebs. Stay on the other side of the street and get your shot - stop getting in their faces. Kudos to the guard for getting in the way.
camerastalker being a douche the whole time deserved a better beat down than that
Good for Johnny's b guard - those PAPS are crazy and deserve exactly what they got!
Believe me...I would love to see a pic of Johnny as much as the next person. But to invade them, kind of like how the body gaurd was invading the paps, is just crazy. Karma man....that's all I can say. What comes around goes around & the pap dude got what was coming to him.
Paps deserve any smack-down they get. Good.
I'm just so glad it wasn't Johnny himself who had to fight them off! When will they get a clue that NO ONE wants their privacy invaded? Johnny is the one "celebrity" who has always been more than generous with his time, talent, money, etc. You would think that would be enough. He is always willing to meet his admirers/supporters/fans, even after extremely long days of work and into the wee hours of the morning. Why can't these scumwads just leave him be when he's just doing his "normal" thing? I can't imagine there's a person on earth, other than another pap, that wouldn't support Johnny's right to privacy and clap their hands at what this guard was doing. BTW ~ he is not Johnny's "usual" bodyguard, so maybe he was just there for this occasion.
I don't recognise him as a bodyguard I think he was just acting as building security. Agree it was OTT Johnny didn't look best pleased with the paps or the guard.
Johnny seemed pissed at both the paps and the bodyguard. God, doesn't he look GORGEOUS though?
There you have it, give a black man power, and they abuse it!!! Go ahead idiots, vote Obama,see what you get!!!
Anon 11:39
You are the only idiot around here. Keep your racist ignorance to yourself the man's colour has nothing to do with this it's his actions that are important.
What building was it ? Why didn't they want pics of Depp walking into it
11:44 CRY BABY!!!!
Ha! Ha! Johnny says "forget you" twice to the paps. Seems like something is missing from the footage right before the bodyguard goes after the paps in their car.
Ralala Mais John Casse Lui La Gueule A Cet Enculé de Paparazzi ! ='(
I think it's hilarious the pap kept saying "let me do m y job".....yea ok.....sure buddy you got a "real job".
"let me do my job dawg" what the hell do you think the bodyguard was doing? Any loser can be a pap now.
I think they need to give him some room to breath. After seeing that. It's no wonder he lives in a different country. Just look at his face. He wasn't pleased with the whole deal.
It might be more convincing if whoever gave you the video gave you the whole non edited version. Something tells me we are not seeing the full story here.

WTF?
where's Jerry? (Johnny's oficial bodyguard)anyway...
this video makes me laugh, "Let me do my job" hahaha, do you think that his job is a really "JOB"? Ha!
come one man!
that pap should open his eyes and look his reality!
be a paparazzi is to be a loser
I think that he needs spend his time in another stuff ¬¬'
Shery you are supposed to comment on the pictures not give an opinion of yourself. Keep up will you
Johnny has been a celebrity for a really long time he gets million of dollors an being papped is part of the celeb life! He should have known better.There was no need whatsoever for this bodyguard to get violent! He wasnt even trying to get close to Johnny he was filming him at a distance! God you see other celebs with the lense being practiclly shoved down there throat an being screamed at an they dont get violent! This pap wasnt even doing anythin wrong in fact he was being the IDEAL pap he wasnt screaming abuse he wasnt getting to close! Paps are need other wise you boring people would have a website to look at constantly or buy your magazines these celebs wouldnt even be that famous without it.They complain paps are to aggressive so when one is actually do the pap job properly you attack him? All celebs just wine constatly!
Isnt it suppose to be Deps body guards job to protect him.Is it not really strange that J Dep had to go grab his body guard like the guy was a child acting out?He soooo needs to be fired!
ahahahahahahahahahahahah fucking loser paps.....get out of their face when they ask you!!!!!!
They got what they deserved. The paps are nothing but parasites.
the pap hit him first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paps deserved it. They had it coming. Fucking annoying people.
We should all buy a new Johnny Depp DVD so he can give his bodyguard a BIG fat raise!!!
Ashley Tisdale Calls Police to her Home
Oct 13, 2008
High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale has blasted the lengths the paparazzi go to get a lucrative snap - accusing one photographer of breaking into her house. The actress was forced to call police to her Los Angeles home after a snapper forced his way into her house in a bid to get exclusive video footage.
And the star has called for all paparazzi to be assigned identity badges, because she fears it's too easy for stalkers to become part of the media scrum. She tells Access Hollywood, "They broke in, they came into my home before. They don't want middle America to know this is what they do to try and get pictures. The police were there and they (told me), you could say it's a robbery. I've never seen the guy again, but they go to an extreme for pictures." She adds, "I wish they had badges. It could be a random stalker. They're like 40-year-old men following us girls around."
I’d prefer a magazine using in-house photography and a blog using publicity stills over anything form of media using low quality, point and shoot paparazzi street crap!

Almost as good as when the Malibu surfer dudes mangled a pap leech. lmao
I feel the paps need to stay their distance. I love seeing photos of Johnny don't get me wrong. I just feel that the paps are going to extremes. If their camera get broken or they get into a fight it is their fought, because they are warn to move back.
good for thr bodyguard. We dont need paps. Paps go home !
The Paparazzi dude must have had a McCain Palin t-shirt on. That causes enough anger in celebs, but pure rage in a black celeb employee.
oh johnny is so gorgeous!! i love him!!! i hate the paparazzi!!
Yeah, let the paps get harassed for ONCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hehe, love seeing the paps get beat like that. Yeah more like that.
I cant believe Jonny would have someone like that guarding him...i pray his body gaurd doesnt treat the fans like that bc if he does Johnny will lose his fans....soo sad...
You say that it comes with the "territory" and obviously you invade other people's territory to provoke a reaction.
Has toting a camera around become a license to harass anybody and behave like a thug ?
the people talking about "give a black man and this is what he does"? well the guys on the beach who beat up paps for mathew were white guys. people forget easily and makes them really look stupid!!!
I find it hilarious that so many of you call the paps and these sites scum, but yet you are obsessed with reading the sites and posting comments...I'm entertained by ignorance and stupidity...
Johnny Depp is an "everyman's actor." He's not an "attention whore" or into the whole "look at me, I'm a celebrity" working the Hollywood scene. You gotta have respect for a man who keeps business, business and keeps his private life and family out of the headlines. The entire globe knows he is the most generous celebrity when it comes to signing autographs,taking pictures, and talking with folks when he's on the job or even after long hours after his job is done, not to mention a great humanitarian contributing to hospitals and spending time with kids who are terminally ill. Let the man have his space.

It never ceases to amaze me that the thought of getting a "real job" never crosses the minds of the purportedly "offended" paps. Instead, they "blame" their prey if they dare express their "normal" desire/need, for a little privacy. It boggles my mind that there are some who revel in their lowly status of stalker rather than choose a more "legitimate" profession which does not involve raping someone else of their rights. And yet, as one of the paps (most cleverly disguised, I must say,) has written, when we purchase the work of these folks [dung beetles], we give them our stamp of approval and more fuel to continue their grotesque, sub-human behavior. Gentlemen, where IS your human dignity?
it looks like a lot was cut out of this video. You can see the bodyguard was doing his job then it shows, what looks like the end of a fight.
you can hear the pops saying he was going to f... the bodyguard up. You know the pops edited the real deal out.
I from turkey... bence johnny iyi korumuş ama güvenliğin yaptığı yani biraz sert tepki vermiş...gazetecilerin işi bu yani...

That wasn't Johnny's usual bodyguard. I think he was just a security guy at the building Johnny was trying to enter. Seems to me Johnny came around the front of the building (which he didn't have to do, by the way, he could've kept going through the door and up the stairs once he got out of the car), so I think he was trying to distract the annoying paps from snapping someone whose privacy he was trying to protect. You can clearly hear him saying, "Go, Go, Go" and see him pointing through the window and up the stairs. One more reason to admire this deeply thoughtful and generous man ~ using himself as a distraction to protect someone else from harassment. I wish all celebs were as considerate as he is.
Johnny IS HOTTTTTTTTTTTT.
HOT. So hot. Do it again, Johnny.
oh c'mon...get a life loser (pap)...why don't you get a real job?
loser ¬¬'
Hellooo... i'm brazilian, no speak english very much...
i'm fanatic for johnny!

please, leave Johnny alone!
I love him very much and pics of him, but please let him have his privacy. HE's such a kind and generous man, so he deserves a bit more respect. All my love to Johnny!!! HE'S the ONE !!!
woow x)) johnny is pretty sexy in this clip :D
*hrr*
johnny depp is hot no matter wat he doez
I appluad that bodyguard because any celebrity not just Johnny Depp deserves privacy. This Pap jerk was on Johnny's property and even filming the inside of his house. I don't care if someone is so desperate to get a shot of Johnny Depp. Me being a fan of Johnny Depp I would know where to draw the line and that Pap crossed it. I would give anything to meet him but come on you got to know when it's to far and you've crossed the line.
