Russell Crowe is speaking out about that viral video of him asking autograph seekers not to be dicks.
On Monday (May 25), the 62-year-old actor was recorded in Paris, France, when he had a message for autograph seekers.
What did Russell Crowe tell the autograph seekers?
“Are you listening? Stay where you are, don’t f-king push in on me and I’ll come to you,” Russell instructed in the video.
“Give everybody space,” he continued. “As soon as somebody’s a dick, I’m going. Clear?”
He then started signing items for fans, including Gladiator images. One fan did ask if he could “add Maximus” to his autograph. Russell responded, “No.”
TMZ posted the video on X (aka Twitter) with the caption, “If you needed a reminder that fans are not always priority No. 1 — turn to Russell Crowe — cause the guy was absolutely not having it outside of his Paris hotel.”
Russell Crowe saw the clip going viral and responded.
He quote tweeted the post from TMZ and wrote, “Clickbait. Everybody got their autograph and selfie, the passage to the hotel was kept free for guests, and I still got to the airport on time. One man, no security. Handled. What’s your problem ?”
