‘I want to address last nights altercation. I was having an amazing night celebrating the award my girlfriend deservedly won,’ he told his two million followers.
‘After coming out of our hotel a particular paparazzi decided to repeatedly call me a name I wouldn’t call my worst enemy, and physically try and start an altercation.
‘As everyone can see I retaliated back badly to this which I totally regret. I’m human. No different to anyone else.
