Actor Ewan McGrego, who starred in the prequel of 'Star Wars', has blasted some fans of the sci-fi series for allegedly crushing children to get his autographs.
The 43-year-old star slammed the particular section of fans 'lowlifes', reported the Daily Mirror.
"I don't have any experience with them. I've never been to one of the conventions," he said of his experience meeting 'Star Wars' fans.
"The people I meet are the ones, who want me to sign Star Wars photos so they can sell them on the internet or the people at premieres who are crushing children against barriers to get me to sign their picture of Obi-Wan Kenobi. They're not fans, they're parasitical lowlifes," he added.
