Hugh Grant Handcuffed by Fan at Premiere

Now seeing a picture of this would make my eye. It happened on the red carpet and there are no pictures to go along with the article? Darn my luck!
 
Hugh Grant, eh, really?
I'd love to see a video of his reaction though.
 
There were no pictures of the incident when I initially posted, but I just found these:

This video surfaced as well:

Hmmm...the girl who did this actually looks pretty cute. If it weren't for the 'creep' factor this could have been a great way to get a date :lol:
 
Look at her face!

'I've just handcuffed myself to Hugh Grant HAHAHA mum would be proud.'

Definitely Sal. My first thought was "who does that?"

(My second thought was "and he didn't even have to pay for it") :ninja:

:rofl: :rofl:
 
Poor Hugh. Beware of cute girls with crazy gleams in their eyes, I guess--even though that's a perfect description for myself! (Oh, Paul McCartney, why do you continue to scorn me?:wink:)

All I could think of was that poor pizza delivery guy in Erie, PA, back in 2003. Would someone handcuff themselves to me, I'd be terrified. I also likely would get over that feeling real fast and beat them senseless. Perhaps that says something about me as an American, I dunno. With a Brit and a Dutch--it's so remarkably kooky and bloodless. Think of someone doing this to, say, Russell Crowe or Sean Penn: I'd predict a righteous beatdown, cute chick or not.

Maybe it's time for photographers to stop photographing this stuff, folks on the internet to cease rebroadcasting the images, and for people like me to stop commenting on it. Granted, it'll be difficult--I'll have to find a new hobby--but folks like this woman don't need any more encouragement to act like idiots.

And I don't need any more encouragement to wonder where to break a paragraph in a posting that maybe 50 people actually read before going back to work or to bed or to some essential part of living. Thank you if you made it this far. I barely did.:flower:
 
Handcuffing Hugh Grant?

Bad reviews, bad press and bad box office—these are the usual movie-star woes. But shackles and chains?
According to reports out of the United Kingdom, a Dutch TV reporter handcuffed herself to Hugh Grant at last Friday's Amsterdam premiere of Music & Lyrics, the actor's new romantic comedy costarring Drew Barrymore.
Grant was attached to the woman, identified as Cielke Sijben, for about 10 minutes, reports said. During his enslavement, the leading man kept his on-screen cool, and, per the Daily Express, continued down the red carpet, hanger-on and all.
Grant's publicist and Warner Bros., the studio behind Music & Lyrics, could not be reached for comment Monday.
Firefighters freed Grant from the woman after about 10 minutes, reports said. Although, according to the Express, Grant's half of the handcuffs remained firmly around his wrist throughout the premiere.
As for the handcuff-slapping reporter? She was said to have been taken into police custody.
According to a Dutch Website, Radiobitches, and an online translation thereof, a 22-year-old named Cielke Sijben joined the Danish TV network 101 last year.
There was no mention of any prior work with shackles and chains, but you know how online translators can be.
For Grant, the reported premiere-from-hell episode came about a week after the actor announced his split from Jemima Khan, his girlfriend of about three years.
Business-wise, Grant remains on firm footing.
Music & Lyrics, which opened stateside on Valentine's Day, has grossed an unspectacular $31 million in the United States, according to Box Office Mojo stats, but appears to be on its way to matching or surpassing that total overseas, where the 46-year-old Brit is an even bigger draw.
And where they like him so much, apparently, they just want to lock him up.
