Barrymore responded with surprise and enthusiasm, exclaiming, ”Oh, my God! Yes! Hi!” However, Rapp quickly showed concern and promptly directed Barrymore offstage for their safety.
Security officers swiftly approached the disruptive man and escorted him away from the stage. According to an event organizer, the man initially appeared to be finding his seat but suddenly began yelling, causing the guard to intervene.
Barrymore and Rapp sought refuge backstage in the green room for approximately 10 minutes until they were assured it was safe to return. When they reappeared on stage, they were met with applause from the audience.
Although the police were notified, there were no charges filed against the disruptive individual. The man’s actions were described as unusual for Barrymore, who had never experienced such an incident before.
The insider revealed that the disruptive individual is notorious for attempting to disrupt events and gain attention from celebrities. This incident was just one of many scenes he has created in celebrity circles.
After the show resumed, Barrymore commended Rapp for her quick and instinctive action. She jokingly compared the situation to the movie “The Bodyguard,” expressing her gratitude and referring to Rapp as her “Kevin Costner.”
Overall, the event may have been interrupted, but it showcased the resilience and professionalism of both Barrymore and Rapp in handling unexpected situations.
