Chris Rock Newt Gingrich

Chris Rock Newt Gingrich

Chris Rock Newt Gingrich Chris Rock reportedly flips out, While partying in Park City, Utah, for the Sundance Film Festival, comedian Chris Rock reportedly was ambushed by a “citizen journalist” who shoved a camera in his face and asked him a question about a GOP presidential candidate  Rock supposedly responded by smashing the videographer’s camera “so hard, it broke into pieces”

Don’t ask Chris Rock about Newt Gingrich. The comic destroyed a videographer’s camera at Tao at Sundance, the scene of a Google bash and Jonny Lennon’s 4am Funday soiree, in the early hours of Monday when he was ambushed with a string of political questions after being asked to pose for a picture. A spy tells us, “A guy walked up to Chris and his entourage and said, ‘Hey, could I get a photo of you with my girlfriend?’ When he turned around, he found a video camera in his face, asking him about Gingrich.” Another spy said: “Chris pushed the interviewer and grabbed the camera. He smashed it so hard, it broke into pieces. He cursed the guy for filming when he had asked them to stop.” Another witness said that after smashing the camera, Rock asked him, “Did you get your shot?” Security escorted the video guy out, and Rock left peacefully, we’re told. Rock’s rep declined to comment last night.

If you ask Chris Rock about Newt Gingrich, he will destroy your expensive equipment.

At an event at the Sundance Film Festival on Monday, Rock was posing for photos when a videographer asked him a question about the GOP candidate, the New York Post reports.

The comedian was none too pleased about the line of political questioning.

“Chris pushed the interviewer and grabbed the camera. He smashed it so hard, it broke into pieces. He cursed the guy for filming when he had asked them to stop,” a witness told the paper.

Maybe he prefers to answer questions about Mitt Romney?

The reporter was escorted out of the area, while Rock went on his way.

It appears that, bushy haired Chris Rock doesn’t like Newt Gingrich; or at least being asked questions about him.

Maybe it was the fact that it was 4AM? As part of the Sundance festivities Rock was at a late night event at Tao when he was unexpectedly hit with a bunch of political questions. The New York Post reports,

“A guy walked up to Chris and his entourage and said, ‘Hey, could I get a photo of you with my girlfriend?

When rock turned around there was a video camera in his face, and someone asking him about Newt Gingrich. The Post reports then that,

“Chris pushed the interviewer and grabbed the camera. He smashed it so hard, it broke into pieces. He cursed the guy for filming when he had asked them to stop. ”Hmmm…… 4AM, you trick me into turning around, I’m probably a little drunk – I think I’m camera smashing too. If not, I at least understand. I’m sure it didn’t help that you were asking him about Newt “F’ing” Gingrich. At 4 AM after a party, there is only one question a guy wants to answer….Your place or mine?
