Nick Lachey is the latest celebrity to take some heat over a scuffle with the paparazzi. After taking a little time to reflect on his actions, Lachey has a very important message for his 200,000-plus Twitter followers. “Last night, after enjoying a great dinner with my wife and our dear friend, the paparazzi harassed us as we walked back to our hotel,” Lachey shared in the first tweet. “I clearly overreacted. I’ve been in this game long enough to know that their antics are sadly part of the deal. Stupid of me. Done.”
After his initial tweet, Lachey followed it up with another that specifically called out major media outlet TMZ. “However, for TMZ or anyone else to say that I was violent or that I ‘got physical’ with someone is reckless and absolutely false,” he added. “Once again, TMZ likes to crate their own clickbait narrative. Life’s too short; we move on.” Some fans compared Lachey standing up for his wife, Vanessa Lachey, to the Will Smith drama at the Oscars. “Nope. Never apologize for defending your wife. People need to learn their behavior has consequences,” one fan commented.
Lachey isn’t the first celebrity to have a less-than-ideal run-in with the paps. In 1995, Alec Baldwin allegedly punched photographer Alan Zanger. The incident resulted in an arrest for Baldwin, and Zanger also sued the actor, though Baldwin later counter-sued. Luckily, Lachey’s incident did not involve the police or any legal actions … at least not yet.
