Hannah Waddingham slammed a photographer during London’s prestigious Olivier Awards on Sunday, who reportedly told the “Ted Lasso” star to “show me leg.”“Oh my God, you’d never say that to a man,” Waddingham, 49, replied on the red carpet in a video posted on X (formerly Twitter) as she stood outside Royal Albert Hall. “Don’t be a d–k otherwise I’ll move off.

Don’t say ‘show me leg.’ No,” she continued. The “Mission Impossible” actress, who was dressed in a floor-length purple gown, was later spotted continuing to exchange words with the photographer while shaking her head.

At one point, Waddingham raised her finger and gestured toward the shutterbug before continuing on her way. The heated exchange didn’t affect the “Game of Thrones” star’s hosting duties, however.

The Post reached out to the “Fall Guy” actress for comment. Waddingham’s telling-off has since gone viral. “I not only saw Hannah Waddingham,” said the person who posted the video. “But I saw Hannah Waddingham being pissed at an a–hole misogynistic p—k photographer and calling him off on it and I never yelled MOTHER so loud.” “HANNAH WADDINGHAM FOR PRIME MINSTER, PLEASE.
