PERFECT STRANGER's Fight For Photos

Tensions flare at the Perfect Stranger premiere

Ziegfeld theater

Well... it all came down to where you were standing. The immediate right upon entry was good for most of the event until...

Halle Berry arrives. As she enters the tent, her ring flies off her finger onto the ground. As she goes to pick it up, two of the A list shooters on the carpet jump in front of the press pit to get a photo. A ruckus ensues, which draws security to the area. This in turn block off half of the press pen, which means we had to shoot over security, PR, bystanders and the A list shooters in front of us. Very ugly.
One shooter was very verbal with the A list shooters and was subsequently ejected from the press pen (which wasn't called for in my opinion)
