Peter Andre mobbed in supermarket
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 21 September 2009
Peter Andre was mobbed by fans at a Hampshire branch of Asda last week, when he appeared there to sign copies of his latest album, ‘Revelation’. According to reports, around 50 people camped overnight to meet the reality TV star, but a total of around 6000 turned up on the day and many jumped over barriers, into shopping trolleys, and onto shelves to try to get closer to him. The surge meant that Andre had to be rushed out of the store and police were called to regain control of the situation.
Sergeant Darren Osgood of Hampshire Police told The People: “He was only brought back when the barriers had been repositioned and it was considered safe to do so. We had a presence here to maintain public order”.
Meanwhile, Andre said: “I can’t believe how many people have turned up. When I did a signing yesterday there were 2000 people there. I thought that was a one-off but this is just incredible. I never expected such support from the public”.
