So…Hugh Grant randomly kicked a paparazzo in the groin last night.

And you know, that intro just does not do the situation’s level of bizarreness justice.

For the full effect, you really have to watch the TMZ.com video:

Hugh Moron – Grant Attacks in New York

See how bizarre that was? How random? Everyone’s walking along, doing his or her own thing in a seemingly ninja-free zone, when – BOOM! Hugh Grant plants his foot in another man’s groin.

I mean, what was the point? The poor guy wasn’t really doing anything to him. Sure, he was following him around with a camera and incessantly asking him questions, and yeah, I imagine that invasion of privacy is ridiculously annoying. Please don’t think I’m defending that kind of privacy invasion. But was it annoying enough to physically assault the guy? And for a second time? Because Grant’s already been down this road once.

We’ve seen lots of videos in which some celebrity just finally can’t take it anymore and punches, slaps, or pushes a paparazzo – it’s not a new thing. But usually those cases involved the cameraman being significantly closer and more annoying than this guy was.

If I’m not mistaken, Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker are currently filming Did You Hear About the Morgans?, a romantic comedy about blah blah blah scheduled for release in December. I’d like to know whether Parker is going to address this little issue. I know it’s none of her business, but, really – how do you not ask your co-worker about why he randomly kicked a cameraman in the groin the night before. I’d ask. I’d be discreet about it, mind you, but you can bet some variation of “So, Hugh, you might have compromised a man’s ability to reproduce last night. Thoughts?” would come out of my mouth at some point.

Grant’s probably going to be in Manhattan a little while longer for filming. Fortunately, there are numerous anger management clinics in New York. As a matter of fact, Psych Central rated and reviewed this New York Anger Management Resource Directory. Get on it, Grant.
