Dining in a restaurant were some fans of matinee idol (MI). By coincidence, MI was seated with his non-showbiz friends in the next table. One of his female fans took a couple of photos of MI. MI just smiled, so the female fan took it that it was okay to take his photo. Then MI covered his face to signal indirectly for the female fan to stop taking photos. After a while, one of the people in MI’s group approached the table of the female fan, and politely asked them to stop taking photos of MI. To their surprise, MI followed as well.

MI approached the female fan and asked if she wanted a picture with him Of course, the female fan became excited.The female fan agreed and MI was even fixing his collar to prepare for their picture. Then, when it was time to press the shutter button, MI moved away and yelled at the female fan, “You want a picture with me? GO F**** YOURSELF!”

The female fan was so shocked. When the men from her table wanted to approach MI, one of them had the better sense to stop any possible melee from happening. He told them to just let it pass and that they were not physically assaulted anyway. MI had obviously one drink too many again.

The female fan, then thought of a nice way to get back at MI. After they got their bill and was on their way out of the restaurant, she approached MI at his table, and told him, in front of his friends, to f*** himself, too.

After that disappointing incident, the fans became so dejected. MI showed yet his Jekyll side again, a far cry from his screen image. Of course, at this point in his career, such incidents, and even other stories about his alleged other problem, will be swept under the rug.
