Hudson Williams is ready to lock the doors of his cottage.
The Heated Rivalry star confronted autograph sellers asking for signatures July 11, stating they were following him and his girlfriend Katlyn Larson during his trip to France for Paris Fashion Week.
"Guys, you just followed me to my residence," Williams said to the three menâone of whom was recording the clipâin videos obtained by news.com.au. "No, no 'sorry.' You can't do this. This is really f--king weird. You can't f--king do this."
The 25-year-old grabbed the stack of his headshots from one of the men, unsuccessfully trying to light them on fire.Â
"You guys aren't fans," he snapped. "You're being really creepy and you just followed me. You don't do this. I'm gonna burn this. Thank you. Now, please f--king leave. You're demented."
"I want to watch you," he continued as he gestured to them to leave. "Hop on your little bike."
As Williams, Larson and two of his team members walked down the cobblestone alleyway with suitcases, the men continued to follow them and record. Larson turned around to hand the stack of photos back to the men, quietly asking them to "go away."Â
The Yaga actor turned back when he saw the interaction, but was ultimately guided forward as the sellers continued shouting.
The confrontation comes days after Williams attended Balenciaga's Haute Couture Fall/Winter July 8 show as a Friend of the House with mom Sunny Williams.
Since Williams and costar Connor Storrie's meteoric rise to fame thanks to the steam hockey romanceâwhich will begin filming its second season in Toronto next monthâthe pair has continued navigating a dizzying new reality.
"It doesn't feel like anything you could prepare for," Williams reflected on Evan Ross Katz's Shut Up Evan podcast in January. "It's a different existence now, not based on worth or whatever quality of human. But it's a different life."
"When you see The Beatles, when you see BTS, there's an element of 'that's not another human, that's a celebrity,' which exists in this weird definition that is very abstract," he continued. "I thought I could empathize with it, but I couldn't fully feel what they were going through until now. Now it's just brought this wave of sympathy because it's not easy."
Although Williams is grateful for Heated Rivalry's success, it has been incredibly overwhelming.
"It's hard to complain about because for a long time I've been a cliché of an actor, you know, struggling server, paycheck to paycheck, just desperate for any role, let alone a good one," he emphasized. However, as he recalled his agent telling him, "Connor and I have had to learn what a lot of actors get in five years in like 30 days."
