Scarlett Johansson Followed By 'Cars Full Of Men With Blacked Out Windows'
Scarlett Johansson had recently a scary experience with the paparazzi. The actress shared the details about the incident in a statement and reminded people about how the laws have not changed even after the tragic death of Princess Diana.
Johansson had to seek the help of the police after being followed by the paparazzi recently, E! News reported. In a statement released to the media, the actress said that the incident happened while she was returning from a “Jimmy Kimmel Live” show, where she was guest recently. She was apparently followed by “five cars full of men with blacked out windows.”
The cars that followed Johansson ran red lights and put other drivers and pedestrians at risk, according to the actress. The “Avengers” star believes that the paparazzi followed her in such a dangerous way because they wanted to find out where she and her daughter were going to stay, so that they could “stalk” her during her stay there.
Johansson pointed out that the actions of the paparazzi put other people’s lives at risk, but their actions are all legal. The actress pointed out that women across the U.S. are stalked and harassed, so there is a need for a “universal law” to address this issue.
The Black Widow actress wants paparazzi to be included in the list while considering a law against criminal stalkers. “ Many paparazzi have criminal pasts and will perform criminal acts to get their shot,” Johansson said.
Johansson was not driving the car when she was being followed by the paparazzi, the police told The Hollywood Reporter. All the occupants of the car reportedly felt “unsafe” after being followed.
After being chased by the paparazzi, Johansson had to spend some time at the Los Angeles Police Department, ET Online reported. The police said that the actress was “spooked” by the incident. She later left the station, but a crime report of the incident was not taken.
