Paul Mescal was left horrified after shooting to fame in 2020 when a crazed fan ran up to him during a night out to tell him that she had naked screenshots of him on her phone.
The Irish actor, 26, became a household name during the pandemic when he starred as Connell Waldron in BBC 3's Normal People alongside co-star, Daisy Edgar-Jones who played Marianne Sheridan in the heartbreaking coming-of-age drama series.
Opening up about the bad parts of being famous, Paul admitted that some of his fans have been exceptionally rude when bumping into him out in public. In a new interview with British GQ, Paul discussed the awkward interaction with the fan which left him feeling 'terrible'. "I remember that was the first time that I was really angry. I was like, 'That's f***ing rude!' It's embarrassing for you, it's embarrassing for me, it's embarrassing for my friends and now I have to say no to you. But luckily they are the anomaly," he told the publication.
