By Tribute on August 20, 2015 | 10 Comments


PFW Fall/Winter 2015 - Balmain - ArrivalsSuicide Squad star Jared Leto was questioned by police Tuesday after his brother Shannon, whom he was travelling with, was involved in a confrontation with a member of the paparazzi at LAX this week.

Jared and Shannon, who is a drummer in Jared’s band, 30 Seconds to Mars, had just arrived in town and were about to get in a car to drive away from the airport when his brother punched the photographer, giving him a bloody lip.

Police were called and everyone involved was questioned. Jared and Shannon had to remain at the airport to be interviewed by police, but the police decided after questioning that no arrests were necessary.

According to TMZ, Shannon and the photographer shook hands and went their separate ways. ~Greg Chisholm

    Jared Leto is crazy, it’s best to stay away from him…

    Well, given the conclusion of this article, this was pretty much a non-story then. Was there nothing more interesting going on at publishing time?

    Idiotic tribute writers……. can’t even provide an accurate headline.

    Happens when ‘actors’ become more ego than talent.

    Um, happens when actors become more ego than talent? Jared Leto is crazy, best to stay away from him? His BROTHER hit the paparazzo, not him. Has nothing to do with him really. Why are you attacking him? Don’t like him, don’t read stuff about him and make asinine comments that have nothing to do with the article.

    Idiotic Tribute writers – bloggers have higher standards when it comes to fact checking. Which is why I guess there are idiotic posters like “Donnie”: Since when is someone else’s actions (which didn’t actually happen) a reflection his ego? BTW the guy’s an Oscar winner so yeah he has talent.

    If they want to write an article, maybe they should get their facts straight first. The ‘brother’ they claim to have hit the photographer was NOT Shannon but actually Babu (Robert), he is Jared’s half brother. Shannon wasn’t even at the airport. So if you people want to write something at least do your research and make sure you write a proper story with proper facts.

    @ Dani: well said

    You really sound like crazed a-holes. Why are you attacking Tribute (and in some cases, each other)? I checked (using pictures of their band and other sites that had photos from the scene) and it was Shannon who was with Jared at the airport. So maybe you should get your facts straight before accusing other people.
