Paul McCartney called the cameramen "monsters."
Paul McCartney was involved in an angry clash with press photographers on the Caribbean island of Montserrat, where he and fellow ex Beatle Ringo Starr are making a record. A Jeep driven by McCartney was in a collision with a car containing the photographers, and McCartney got out and shouted at the cameramen.
Photographer Doug Jennings said that McCartney called them monsters and angrily lectured them for 20 minutes on why they should not bother him. No one was injured in the collision. The photographers claim McCartney deliberately rammed their car. Jennings said the incident happened as McCartney, his wife, Linda, and three children were on their way to a recording studio for a session with Ringo Starr. McCartney told the cameramen, "We're here only to record. There is no story. There is no Beatles reunion!"
