Looks like “This Is What You Came For” artist Calvin Harris will shortly be in the market for some new wheels.
On Monday, the DJ and producer (as well as, of course, Taylor Swift ex), got into an altercation with a clamoring paparazzo as he was leaving his Beverly Hills gym.
Appearing aggravated with the photographer’s unoriginal line of questioning, “What’s next for you?…Who are you dating now?” Harris, in an attempt to make a swift exit, forgets to close the back door of his Range Rover.
As the 32-year-old artist begins pulling out, the open door smacks right into the wall behind him, wrecking his car. Following the accident, Harris goes off on the man taking his picture, purportedly blaming him for what just occurred.
However, seemingly overcome with guilt over the whole fiasco, Harris took to social media to communicate his regret, maintaining it was the paparazzo’s fault, yet with the understanding he was just “doing [his] job”.

While it’s unclear if the man whom the tweet was directed to ever saw it or ever will, Calvin’s fans took it upon themselves to exonerate the artist and forgive him for any wrongdoing.
you don't have to apologize, even though they're doing their jobs sometimes they are too much. It's okay!

Though we may always be waiting on the official word of the man given the apology, at least Calvin Harris has been found not guilty in the court of public opinion.
