One day after Drew Barrymore was hurried off-stage during a conversation with Reneé Rapp due to a man rushing the stage, an audience member detailed how the interruption moved from seemingly innocent bit to something a bit scarier.
Journalist McKenzie Morrell, who was at the Aug. 21 talk held at 92nd Street Y in New York city, exclusively told E! News that during the event a man suddenly “walked briskly down the right orchestra aisle,” while shouting Drew’s name.
Given Barrymore’s friendly response—footage posted on social media show her saying “On my god, yes, hi” to the man—Morrell said that she and several other audience members thought the exchange was part of a skit. However, it soon became clear that wasn’t the case.
“He proceeded to aggressively approach Drew/Reneé,” Morrell explained to E! News. “He said that Drew knew him, emphasizing that he needs to see her at some point while he’s in NYC. Almost instantaneously, security guards swarmed him while Reneé ushered Drew off stage within seconds of the ordeal.”
