Denzel Washington’s Rep Speaks Out After Heated Exchange at Cannes | E! News
Denzel Washington’s reps have addressed the heated exchange between the actor and a photographer at the Can Film Festival. On May 19th, the 70-year-old walked alongside director Spike Lee and co-star ASAP Rocky on the red carpet for the premiere of their new film, Highest to Lowest. Denzel began a conversation with ASAP before he was seen walking in the direction of a photographer who is trying to get his attention. The photographer appears to grab Denzel’s arm, prompting him to yank his arm away and point directly in his face while repeatedly saying, “Stop it.” before walking back toward his cast members. And in a May 20th statement to E! News, the rep says, “It was a great evening.” Inside the theater, Denzel was celebrated for his role in the film, which reunited him with Spike for the first time in 20 years. Denzel was overcome with emotion as Spike who previously worked with him on the film’s Mo Better Blues, Malcolm X, He Got Game, and Inside Man presented him with an honorary palm door. The award, which means golden palm in English, is the highest honor presented at the Can Film Festival. It is given to the best film in the official competition. The trophy itself is a handcrafted jewelry piece made of 24 karat gold. [Music]

Probably has something on him.
Expect another Pdiddy story
We love Denzel❤. Don't try that mess !!!!
He's lucky he wasn't wearing a stop watch we'd talking a different story right now 😢🙆🏾
"Don't play with me! You never seen my movies!" ( In Samuel Jackson voice from Chappelle show)
Italians are not African in the French Riveria?
That's not a good representation of the body of Christ..wwjd? Especially since he just got baptized.
Denzel Washington say you put them hands, and you gonna be drawing back a nub .
Mr, Denzel you are wonderful and fantastic in all you do. I put a stamp on it.❤
what's the big deal he put his hands on him and he told the person to stop
Denzel was about to set up that stop watch ⌚️
This was misleading.
THIS THE BEST GUY IN THE BUSINESS, BUTVWHEN TOUR A ISRAELITE BROTHER WILL NOT GIVE YOUBTHEXREGARDSCTFAT DUEXTO OUR OEOPLE. TGE MOST HIGHBYAH AKREADY BED HIS PEOPLE IN DUETERONOMY 28:15-68. SAY WHAT YOU WILL TRUST THE MOST HIGH YAH.
He should sue his crazy buttt
Typical Jewish behavior
Those reporters over there are too touchy feely.
Anybody who follows Denzel's career knows he doesn't like to be touched. Jamie Foxx has said it many times during interviews. I don't like to be touched and I show it. If I hug someone, it's instinctive, I'm very surprised to see them, which is very rare. Me and that person have hugged before.
Don't mess with my boo 😊lol
Alright, now. Denzel Washington! ❤
I agree with Denzel Washington. The media, the paparazzi often get too aggressive. Boundaries need to be established and respected. Do not touch anyone.
Denzel was in his right. 🙏🏻
Like children he gotta say stop it more than once. Can y'all start suing paparazzi???
You'd have thought Denzil would buy a suit that fitted him though.
[RAPHA] is the Hebrew word meaning [TO HEAL] Strongs # 7495. RAPHA is defined; v. "To mend, restore, refresh, renew. To invigorate, to regenerate, 'to bring back from the dead', wellness, to cure, to thoroughly make whole." To the contrary, the antonym, "peril" (from the root words 'per' meaning 'near' and 'il' from the same root as ''illness') means; "to expose to injury, sickness, loss, to afflict." Peril is Satan's plan for humanity, but God's plan is RAPHA/HEALING!! Compare the following verses:
"In the last days there will come perilous times…but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit."
2 Tim 3:1, Titus 3:5
"YAHWEH, my healing God, I cried out for a miracle and You healed me!"
Psalm 30:2
"He who loves peril will perish in it…But the fear of YHWH/The Lord will delight the heart, and will give joy and gladness and length of days."Sirach 3:27, 1:12
"A large crowd was following Him, for they'd seen His miracles of healing."John 6:2
“Your wound is past healing, your injury most severe…You have no medicines that can heal you…Therefore I will restore your health, and I will heal you of all your wounds. says YHWH/the Lord.”
Jeremiah 30:12, 17
"YHWH/the Lord responded to Hezekiah’s prayer and healed the people." 2 Chronicles 30:20
"Believe God, and He will restore you to health. And straighten your way, and hope in Him. Observe His fear, and grow old in it."
Sirach 2:6
"And great multitudes followed YESHUA/JESUS, and He healed them there."Matthew 19:2
Paparazzi should be banned across the Globe 🌎
The audacity of it all, think he sit so high he can just put his hands on people. Denzel I love you class act
these white boys think they still own Black ppl, SMH… try that with a real 1 & watch what happens to u
Some of them still think they own us.
The French have a long history of racist treatment of black stars on that particular red carpet, not surprising
Yts are disgusting 🤢🤢
And don.t for get the movie out of time and devil in a blue dress and glory.😊
inside man is a slept on movie! One of spikes best.
Looks to me like Denzel could use a much-needed vacation. He's been going hard lately, what with Othello and all. That photographer should be ashamed of himself. What I really want to see now, is that interview with Colbert.
😂❤
