It hasn’t been a good week for the paparazzi.

On Thursday, Adam Lambert allegedly assaulted a photographer while in Miami Beach.

A day later, Russell Brand was involved in his own scuffle – this one at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). After getting physical with several photographers, he was placed under citizen’s arrest by one of the cameramen. The actor/comedian was officially detained later by police.

Brand’s trip to the police station was brief. After being booked on suspicion of battery, he posted $20,000 bail and was released on his own recognizance.

Fiancee Katy Perry, who was with Brand at the time, later tweeted about the incident. “If you cross the line & try an put a lens up my dress, my fiancé will do his job & protect me. #standbyyourman #don’tf**kwiththeBrands,” she wrote.
