He confronted said fan and asked if he was secretly filming him, to which the fan denied and rebutted, “I’m filming you openly." In his drunken stupor, Ethan got into a scuffle with his fan and the pair even hurled expletives at each other, before they were pulled away from each other by bystanders.
The 34 year-old actor was escorted out by his younger brother shortly after, who apologised to the fan and said, “My brother is usually not like that, please don’t film [him] without permission. We’re just having a simple night out to celebrate Chinese New Year.”
Ethan’s hot-headed behaviour came as no surprise as he previously flared at naysayers’ online and told them to “go and die” for speculating about his break up with ex-girlfriend Tiffany Hsu.
