Nick Lachey didn’t have the best night in Beverly Hills on Sunday. Of course, it didn’t quite compare to the whole Will Smith–Chris Rock on-stage slap fiasco going on nearly simultaneously just across town over at the Oscars.
But still, the 98 Degrees singer is dealing with his own violence controversy on Monday after multiple angles of a viral video appeared to catch him having an unfortunate altercation with a photographer.

The 48-year-old was walking outside a Beverly Hills hotel with his wife, Vanessa Lachey, and a second woman when he was caught on camera appearing to yell at a photographer sitting in her car.
As he came over to the woman in the car, video footage from two different angles showed the boy bander reach forcefully into the window of the car and attempt to grab the camera out of the woman’s hand while calling her a “p***y mother f**ker.” In a second clip, taken by another photographer, Lachey can be seen criticizing the paparazzi while Vanessa and the woman — purportedly a “dear friend” of the couple — keep walking.
Nick then turns around and flips off the paparazzi member with both hands. TMZ first published footage of both incidents on Monday morning; you can see the video clips of the unfortunate alteration and ensuing discussion HERE.
