    Paparazzi hounding Spears arrested - CNN.com

    I think there should be stricter laws on these paparazzi frenzies. It's insane how they can hound celebrates relentlessly. I remember the one time when one wouldn't get out of the way of her car and they had to damn near mow him down. And he was gonna press charges? **** move the hell out of the way. And then you had Princes Diane. They need to leave these people alone.

    I agree.. leave them poor people alone. They should be restricted to certain locales where people come to them for photos and stuff. That would never work though.. but these crowds of photographers hounding people are out of hand..

    eddo I don't like you.

    I've said it more than a few times myself: If peopel were hounding me like they do Britney, I'd go looney too. I couldn't handle it.

    I give Brit props for when she ran ovr that guys foot. She didn't get out and laugh in his face like I would have...

    The people like Britney are adding to the fire though.

    By giving them jucy things to report, it is like moths to the fire. Guys like Wil Smith get lots of attention but because their not in rehab and stuff, it is kept to a low roar instead of the out of control mess with people like britney, lindsy, Paris.......


    I guess what I am trying to say is the paparazzi frenzies are in many cases feeding off the train wreck they are chasing. Britney and the rest want the attention, and do everything they can to get that attention.

    That shouldn?t matter. They're creating a safety hazard for the celebrity, bystanders and themselves. Sometimes they chase these people on motorcycles with someone on the back with a camera. They run into the street trying to get pictures. There needs to be restrictions as to how they gather their information.

    Maybe it shouldn't matter but we have to face reality.

    The actions of the reporters and stuff are driven by both ends and they are just in the middle. On one end you have celebrities who are selling themselves for the attention. It drives their worth with upward for things like their movies and such. Then on the other end, you have the stupid masses who want all the info on these celebrities, the more messed up the information, the more they want it.


    Case in point:


    FOXNews.com - Pop Tarts: Oops! Britney Hits Hollywood Without Her Underwear While Her Dogs Run Amok in Hotel - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment


    Consider this. Does the fanning of the flames with someone like Britney help her to make more money on things like her album sales? Sure it does, so the whole process is a self feeding fire, out of control.

    If you can't take the heat, get your ass out of the kitchen.

    I have about an ounce of pity for these ****ing ****heels who are passed off as celebrities these days. They chose a career that put them in the limelight for all to see.

    At one time, these "celebrities" had a choice. Their stupid ****ing parents or agents shouldn't pump them up so much that they feel like they have some talent.

    I mean, where is Jessica and Ashley Simpson these days?

    Just because they're celebrities doesn't mean their lives should be endangered. And People should have to drive around these paparazzi?s standing in the middle of the streets. Britney certainly clambers for it and personally I think she that?s the only was she?s gonna get attention but its unsafe and its wrong. You?d be singing a different tune if it was you they were hounding.

    I have a saying that kinda goes to this comment:

    "The amount of crap a person can take in their job is directly comparable to the amount their getting paid."


    Sure there are negatives connected to being a celebrity, but their getting paid millions of dollars from the same public driving their fame and wanting the juicy details of their lives.


    There are exceptions to be sure, but most of the biggest problems of paparazzi crowds are caused directly by the celebrity acting poorly to invite this attention. Like Britney giving them bare crotch shots on purpose, they are directly fanning the flames of this problem.


    How do we blame the paparazzi when their simply stuck in the middle? Their stuck in the middle of making large amounts of money to get pictures. It is like a feeding frenzy to be sure but it is the companies paying incredible amounts of money for these pictures that is truly causing it.

    No money to be made, no paparazzi. If you want to stop all of this, simply make it illegal to sell an image of another person without their permission.

    True... but then again, how many of us know the life of having our asses licked by the world at such a young age.. I shutter to think how I would have acted if I was a beloved multimillionaire at 17 who always got his way.. Yikes.


    Prolly woulda been in a straight jacket too.. or dead.

    Yep, if i had millions before the age of 18 it probably would have done me more harm than good.

    Watch me get in trouble for multiple posts.. even though I can't edit.. :rolleyes:


    I feel sorry for Brittney that she never had anyone around her willing to tell her the truth.. Surrounded by vultures.. Kids aint equipped to deal with that. I really hope she comes out the other side okay.. People will always try to tear her down for the rest of her life.


    Not only that, but everyone around you lying to you, stroking your ego.. recipe for disaster..
