Flight Of The Hot Chocolate
When you're on a TV show that some people watch, sometimes those some people who watch your TV show on a regular basis and members of the paparazzi see you out in the wild and want to get a little time with you. This is a side-effect that some famous hos embrace and others don't. Jemaine Clement of Flight of the Conchords falls into the latter category. We'd all be mad if we were slowly turning into an exact replica of Peter Jackson, but DAMN, don't take it out on your fans.
Jemaine did not like his fans and the paps crowding around his space in NYC, so he tried to shoo them away by Wicked Witch of the East-ing their asses. But one fan did not appreciate getting doused with a flying cunt bath and retaliated by throwing their tall cup of hot chocolate at Jemaine. That really is the most delicious retaliation ever.
Now that I think about it, Jemaine might have the magic touch. Jesus turned water into wine, but Jemaine turned water into delicious hot chocolate! Now, he just needs to practice more so the hot chocolate goes into his mouth next time.

Don't listen to her, she's lying. When my grandma approached Irish Fury for an autograph, she yelled that she's "not on the clock now, you old fart, so beat it." She finally signed a tissue, that she'd just blown her nose in, with the inscription "Don't try and sell this."
"And lastly, what kind of "fan" would like this guy enough to wait outside his house and yet end up throwing chocolate at him?!"
What kind of grown man throws water at someone, oh yeah, a hipster asshole.
I thought this was an unkempt Jeff Goldblum.

Where is he in those pics? Looks like somewhere near NYU?
-------------------------------
I think he's on Varick St right near that Trump Hotel over there.
Aw, yeah, it's Business Time!
No, but really...we have no idea what the context of this interaction and and furthermore, it's slightly more dickish to throw HOT liquid at someone than room temperature.
For the record, I'm gracious to all my fans.

I love all the "he should be grateful people know who he is" comments, it's reminds me of guys who hassle girls on the street and say "they should be grateful someone's trying to pick them up, it means they're hot, blah blah blah".
First of all, we have no clue what it's like to be a celeb. Second, you can't be nice to ALL your fans, EVERY time. For one story that shows a celebrity freaking out over paps or fans, there's hundreds of other times when they actually accept to have their picture taken, sign autographs, or pose with random people.
These people were actually outside his house, not at an event or red carpet thing.
Also, this is NY where celebs have more privacy and are left alone most of the time, and it should stay that way.
And lastly, what kind of "fan" would like this guy enough to wait outside his house and yet end up throwing chocolate at him?!
Celebrity today sucks. I don't know it's because of the internet, twitter, but at this point it's gotten absurd.
He's lucky anyone even recognized him. That show was a big stinker.
LOL at all of the "personal space" comments. All I can say is none of you bitches would make it here in Paris. These fools have not a fucking clue about getting all up on you in the street or subway. I'm from NYC, so, not used to that shit, and after 5 years here, it still pisses me off. I started pushing.
As for Jemaine, he's low profile and seems down to earth, whether you like his show or not, it seems he was heavily provoked.
Paris is for stoners.

I love Flight of the Conchords!
The first season of the TV show rocked, the second sucked...I think they did it out of loyality to their crew or something. They did not have the songs ready. The one good song in season two is "Too Many Dicks on the Dance Floor".
They shot it in the Bronx or somewhere NYC'ish.
Leave Jemaine alone!!!
Oh and btw, they are from New Zealand so i'm sure he's not in a good a mood over the horrid earthquake, so double leave him alone.

That's why I never understood why people were so in love with him when he died. He was a major prick. Nothing can gloss over that.

me neither. I love my privacy, and am twitchy about my personal space, preferably a 10 foot radius :D ...so I don't get up in others'. uninvited.

Serves him right. Why is he the only one who can throw liquids around, eh? He has maybe 100 fans of his whitebread humor and he gets all uppity with the water bottle?

It seems to me that the funnier and more affable a person appears to be on TV/in movies/etc., the nastier they are in real life
----------------------
This may be true - it was said that Groucho Marx was a, well, a fucking grouch who would nastily inform people that he was "not working" at that moment (when they expected him to be gracious and funny*). Which only makes me love him more.
The "Sugar Lumps" video was hilarious - one of my faves!
WTH? I would have chased her down and beat her ass right there in the street. Jemaine is not from NYC though! lol
heart u jemaine
P.T.: right? I'm betting the hot chocolate thrower wasn't even involved in the original offense. They were probably walking by, minding their own beeswax and got splashed with Jemaine's water. Then they were like, fuck you right back!
It reminds me of the borat movie. All over the country people are trying to be polite to him in the face of his bizarre behavior. Then he gets to NY.
Borat tries talking to a guy on the subway. He says "My name is Borat, what is yours?" Dude responds "My name is Mind your own F*cking business!" I loved it.
What's this guy's problem? He's only got about 80 fans with that obscure and tepid comedy show--I watched two episodes. A few smiles and laughs, but not enough to seek it out and watch the rest of the episodes.
Hell, he could have lunch with two fans a week and cover them all in a year.
Well, bitch started the food fight. Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind...
Its funny how he got pwnd and is trying to come up with a look that implies he doesn't mind while at the same time shaming his chocolate tosser--like he's above it all. Wish they got a picture of the tosser, though. That person is more interesting to me than he is.
1. I would not have recognized him with all the pubes on his face and I've even watched that show a few times. He looks like any other hipsterdouche you'd see on the street.
2. Supposedly he was annoyed at the crowd of people bugging him, but he looks rather alone in these photos.
3. I would never stop any celeb on the street. They got their life to live, I got mines. I'd be embarassed.
I have NO idea who this sad sack is but this series of pics is hilarious.

Oh i totally agree. I was quoting SugarFree who was saying pretty much what you are, i just didnt want to copy his/her whole comment and take up alot of space.
Seriously i'd probably ninja, pile drive someone's face too! i cant with people in my face on a normal regular basis let alone peoples flipping like psychopaths.

Along the same lines, celebrities really should be more graceful to these people who gave them fame. It doesn't take much time to smile and say, "hi, nice to meet you, but I have to run."
================================================
It all depends on how the fans act. I've seen and heard fans do INSANE thing to celebs. I'm not saying this is the case sometimes people are quick to condemn a Celb for not being gracious enough meanwhile some fans grab a hold of a guy, pull his hair corner them so they can’t move, Some of them fans lose their fucking minds. Could you imagine someone in your face freaking out, face all contorted and screaming with spittle flying out of their mouths like rabid dogs because they’ve lost their minds with excitement? I mean it would actually have to be downright scary at times, and let’s face you can’t be in the mood for that shit all the time, we all have bad days.
I’d be going all ninja on people, you know drop kicking them, straight arm to the face, roundhouse to the throat, pile drivers...and then I’d sign their foreheads with my car keys. Bawahaaaaa!
Bet he thinks twice the next time he gives someone shit.
After posters here raved about this show, I gave it a try. Bleh. Kinda quirky but no real laughs--just inanity. I think it's partly cultural. In a similar vein, I always think that TV or sketch comedy from the UK needs a "British Humour" warning, because dumb Americans like me aren't likely to find it all that funny.
I do think Dylan Moran (Irish, but still), Ed Byrne (ditto), Harry Enfield, Alan Partridge, etc. are wildly funny.

Excuse me, who is this guy? Some second rate comedian who is New Zealand's answer to David Cross (and just as attractive)? Please. He should be happy anyone even recognized his ass under that dead thing on his face.
Someday he'll be exactly like Phoebe Price, lifting up his dress in the hope that someone will look his way. Enjoy the attention while you can, you tool - soon you'll be begging for ANYONE to lob hot chocolate at you.
he threw water on them first

I wouldn't say shit to any celebrity, save Meryl Streep to say how much I enjoy her work. Fans who do bother to say something nice should be acknowledge back nicely. He's lucky anyone recognized him. Is it so difficult to be polite and not a douchetard? However, throwing a drink on someone is completely overboard.
I love Jemaine. So much so that I usually sigh when I say his name. But damn! He is fighting teh hotness here! Don't fight it, Jemaine! Don't stoop to lice-breeding facial hair and asshattery! DON'T DO IT JEMAINE!

Hm haven't seen him since Conchords ended and he's a dick to his fans... correlation? I haven't heard that he's all Heath Ledger, spitting on fans, so I'll give him a pass for now. Maybe he was having a bad day.

Holy shit, was Heath like that?
That said, this dude looks like Joaquin Phoenix in his BYE! GOOD phase.

Bump on the Heath part...I never heard of Heath acting like an ass to his fans but I could be wrong.
I thought this actually was a Joaquin post but MK decided to use a pic of him when he looked like a hobo :P

Man, he looks like a troll there. Peter Jackson indeed!
Still love FOTC, tho...
I would NEVER have recognized him. At BEST I would have thought to myself, "Wow, that homeless guy looks like the dude, from Flight of the Conchords!"

Douchechill!
Love his voice!! Thank God that hot coco didn't hit him in the vocal cords, he would have lost his "gift". bwaaaa
Found it odd that someone in NYC would do that. No one really bothers celebrities here. Kim Kardashuptheass called the paps when she goes take a dump, but I don't see folks stalked her.
I used to see Kevin Spacey ride his vespa in Lower Manhattan when he lived down here.

I miss FOTC.
Business hours are ov-ah bay-beh.
It seems to me that the funnier and more affable a person appears to be on TV/in movies/etc., the nastier they are in real life, and vice versa. I met Tabatha Coffey at a book signing last Friday night, and she was very sweet and gracious, warmly thanking each of us at the end of the line for "being so patient." She comes off like an ice cold bitch on her show, so I was not expecting that.
