I just saw the clip where he talked about how he didn't want to take a pic with a fan at a bar but did it bc basically everyone at the bar was staring at him so he said yes. Right when he was going to take the pic, the fan throws up all over him. The waiter saw this and brings to the back to hoses him down then goes to tjmax across the street and brought him some clothes. After all that, another woman goes up to him asking to take a pic. 😬😬😬

Omg, that is horrific! No wonder he's traumatized.

he’s right ofc but his comparing it to sexual harassment feels icky to me for some reason. fans absolutely need to get a grip tho.

Considering how so many unhinged fans think it's okay to bite their faves (Norman Reeder) feel on their chests, or grab their dicks like it's cute it's not far off. Like another poster in here said, celebs aren't sure what kind of crazy they're going to get, so have a hands off policy in their off time. Go to a convention and pay for a meet and greet if you're such a stan and want to say hllo!

Yeah but some celebs do literally get sexually harassed.
