Ukranian red-carpet prankster Vitalii Sediuk has been placed on the no-fly list by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
On Sept. 12, Sediuk was denied entry onto an airplane traveling from Instanbul to Los Angeles.
The former journalist was heading back to the states to attend court-ordered counseling, following an ambush of Brad Pitt at the Maleficent premiere in May.
“The nutter was trying to bury his face in my crotch,” Pitt said of his experience with Sediuk, who has a reputation for using expired credentials to crash Hollywood events in order to harass celebrities.
The actor argued that Sediuk’s obscene behavior would destroy future celebrity-fan encounters.
“I don’t mind an exhibitionist,” said Pitt. “But if this guy keeps it up, he’s going to spoil it for the fans who have waited up for an autograph or a selfie, because it will make people more wary to approach a crowd. And he should know, if he tries to look up a woman’s dress again, he’s going to get stomped.”
The former TV reporter apologized to his supporters in July, when he announced his departure from the U.S to pursue a career in modeling.
This morning, Sediuk struck again. The serial prankster tackled Kim Kardashian at the Balmain Fashion show in Paris, which marks the first attack since his early “retirement.”
