After a video emerged of Russell Crowe interacting with autograph seekers outside his Paris hotel, the actor has since clapped back at the way it\u2019s presented, describing it as \u201cclickbait.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The footage emerged on Monday, May 25th, with TMZ<\/a> sharing it alongside the caption, \u201cIf you needed a reminder that fans are not always priority No. 1 – turn to Russell Crowe – cause the guy was absolutely not having it outside of his Paris hotel.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Multiple outlets have since said the Gladiator<\/a> star \u201closes it\u201d at the fans. The footage itself shows Crowe, 62, emerging from the entrance and making an announcement to the group, who are off camera.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAre you listening?\u201d he asks. \u201cStay where you are. Don\u2019t f**king push in on me. I\u2019ll come to you. Just give everybody space. As soon as somebody\u2019s a d*ck, I’m gone.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He then proceeds to sign their Gladiator<\/a> memorabilia, although when one person asks him to add, \u201cMaximus,\u201d Crowe shakes his head to say no and moves onto the next person.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Russell Crowe asks \u2018What\u2019s your problem?\u2019<\/h2>\n

On Tuesday, May 26th, Crowe himself shared TMZ\u2019s video and criticised the way it\u2019s being reported on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clickbait. Everybody got their autograph and selfie, the passage to the hotel was kept free for guests, and I still got to the airport on time. One man, no security. Handled. What\u2019s your problem ? https:\/\/t.co\/Yxo2BIFSe9<\/a><\/p>\n
