Sometimes, news is so crazy you just can’t make this stuff up.
Woody Harrelson released a press statement today explaining his dust-up with a photographer from TMZ in a New York airport Wednesday night. His reasoning?
He apparently thought the cameraman was a zombie. Seriously, no joke. According to CNN:
“I wrapped a movie called ‘Zombieland,’ in which I was constantly under assault by zombies, then flew to New York, still very much in character,” Harrelson said in a statement issued Friday by his publicist.
“With my daughter at the airport I was startled by a paparazzo, who I quite understandably mistook for a zombie,” he said.
Um…. right. At least we can all be thankful that he didn’t aim for the head, right?

Am I the only one who thinks these vultures have it coming?

As out there as Woody can be (actually, I like the guy) I don’t think he was serious.
And yeah, those vultures have it coming. I really never sympathize with the paparazzi. Especially when they’re hounding celebs who are with their children.

Woody Harrelson is about the only person in Hollywood who I would actually accept that as a valid explanation.

It’s all that raw food and weed. His brain meat consistency of chicken fried steak. lol

These photographers should just mind their own business and leave people alone. Then they wouldn’t have any problems at all.

Yeah, I’m not sure what’s so hard to believe about this. Everyone knows Woody only smokes the good stuff.

I think this defense is in itself so awesome that the whole matter should be dropped.

My favorite story from this past weekend. The TMZ guys are a bit like zombies, no?
