Richard
Gere Annoyed With The Press, Attacks Cinegrafista
SANTIAGO - The American actor Richard Gere, in the south
of Chile since Wednesday, attacked a cinegrafista of a television channel
that followed him, alleging to be tired of the siege of the press.
Gere, of 53 years, just-married with the model Carey Lowell,
after some years of relationship and having a son, is passing some days
in Punta Enclosures for bullfighting, 2,244 kilometers to the south
of Santiago. Since he arrived at the city, he's been causing a sensation
between the inhabitants, mostly in the women, who accumulated in the
rotunda of the luxurious hotel "Finis Terrae" to see him.
However, yesterday, Friday, after having postponed his
plans to travel to the Antartic due to bad weather, Gere visited the
cemetary of Punta Enclosures for bullfighting, and afterwards to free
himself of a group of journalists, he beat a Chilean cinegrafista.
"Stop, please! Please, stop!," cried out the artist
before beating in the camera of Claude Monje. Still it is not known
until when the protagonist of films as "Pretty Woman," "American
Gigolô" and "The Force of the Destination" will remain in
Chile nor if he will leave with his wife. Initially, we have been informed
that yes, he will stay. Agency EFE
