Queen's Brian May Goes Off On Disrespectful Cameraman

Be advised, you may not want to push Brian May's buttons. The Queen guitarist had enough of an Australian news cameraman that wouldn't let him be outside of the Brisbane Airport. As May tells it, he let the man film long enough to 'get his story' then asked for a private moment with some fans. He says the Channel 7 cameraman instead moved close enough that it felt like a violation of personal space. He warned the man that it was 'going to get ugly' if he didn't stop. Channel 7 reports May went off when he noticed their cameraman had pulled out his phone and was still recording - that's when May "attacked" the reporter and slapped the phone. May plays the victim in his own statement but is this really just another example of a celebrity thinking they call the shots? The guy was filming in a public location, should he file a police report against May? Do you know a member of the media? Are they a leach like they're portrayed?
