Irritated David
When Jamie tried to take a photo of the star, he was met with a stony response. The Sun reported that Jamie was able to get a TikTok video of the star that has gone viral. In the video, David seemed rather mad at the ‘wannabe’ paparazzi and was glaring at him from the plush lounge.
What’s more? The two were made to sit adjacent to each other on their 7-hour-long flight. It was during the flight that Jamie tried to take another snap of the star. A source claimed:
David was hoping to keep a low profile during his trip but when you’re one of the biggest stars on TV that’s no mean feat.
He was spotted at the lounge but didn’t make a scene though he made it clear he wasn’t happy.
On the flight, the guy tried to sneak another picture and David had had enough. He told a member of staff and Emirates decided to intervene.
Banned or what?
According to Metro.co.uk, the fan claimed he ended up in an argument with the 51-year-old comedian who didn’t like getting clicked. In the video posted on TikTok, he wrote:
Just had an argument with David Walliams in the first class lounge because of this video.
He then added:
David Walliams reported me. Don’t know if I can fly Emirates again. What a bean.
