Yahoo Finance Hannah Waddingham Chews Out Photographer Who Makes Sketchy Request
“Ted Lasso” star Hannah Waddingham gave a swift verbal kick Sunday to a photographer who apparently asked her to reveal more of her leg before the Olivier Awards at Royal Albert Hall.
“Oh my God, you’d never say that to a man,” Waddingham said in a viral video of the confrontation. “Don’t be a dick; otherwise, I’ll move off. Don’t say, ‘Show me leg.’ No.”
Waddingham appeared to have further dialogue with the photographer as she moved on.
The actor later hosted the awards but won several accolades for what transpired beforehand.
Observers on X, formerly Twitter, called her a “queen” and a “role model” for her handling of the interaction.
I could not love her more! I absolutely LOVE that she stands her ground and will not let people treat her like crap.

Damn rude photographer. I’m glad she called him out! 💪💪And I’m glad her friend Michael Ball was there to give her a hug; I’m sure she needed it in that moment. 🙌🏼
