Louis Tomlinson paparazzo is a bragger

Karl Larsen, the photographer who was involved in an altercation with singer Louis Tomlinson a few days ago, leading to his arrest, has a history of an aggressive style of confronting celebrities, TMZ.com reports.

In 2010, Karl had spoken to radio show host Howard Stern on air, in which he spoke about how he confronted Mel Gibson that same year. At the beginning of the video, TMZ.com writes, Karl can be heard saying, “We’re gonna be rich.” He also told Howard, that he doesn’t always get too aggressive, sometimes letting the celebrities “dig their own hole (sic)”.

Karl is now being represented by Gloria Allred, with a civil suit said to be in the works against Louis — who himself has lawyered up with top Hollywood attorney Marty Singer, according to The Mirror.
