June 12, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Los Angeles Police has named Jodie Foster as a suspect in an incident last month where she allegedly attacked a teenage paparazzo. The incident happened when Foster, along with her two sons, was walking towards the parking of “The Grove’ shopping centre in Los Angeles.
Foster representative said that the reports of her attacking the 17 year old paparazzo are untrue. She added that the teenager started clicking the pictures of Foster and her kids and she had to stop him because it was scaring her kids.
According to representative of Foster, the teenager followed the family and refused to leave them alone. Foster just touched him on the elbow, trying to take him aside away from her children.
Foster, a two time Academy Award winner started her career at the age of three. Her first major film break came in 1976, when she played the role of a young prostitute in Martin Scorsese’s film Taxi Driver. The role fetched her an Oscar nomination for the best supporting actress. She was highly praised for her role as Clarice Starling in 1991 thriller film The Silence of the Lambs. In her long career, Foster has established herself as a versatile actress and has worked in different genres of films raging from thriller to family dramas.
