These people can choose to not be celebrities, but they didn’t. That’s why in this country there are laws in place that lay out what it is to be a public figure and what you can expect if you choose to be one. That doesn’t just fall onto movie stars, either. Even your local mayor falls into the category.
If I were a celeb, I’d hire someone to do the exact same thing they are doing to me to them. See how long it takes for them to go crazy.
You’re kinda missing the point in my post, eh? If you’re a public figure someone taking your photo isn’t considered harassment. If you’re a private citizen in your own home it is.
No I get you, I’m not debating the legal definition of their actions.
Is it legal to take their camera and Tom Brady that shit a few blocks away? Just snatch it and chuck it. Also I think hiring people to just get all up in the face of paparazzi and take pictures of them would be funny too
maybe in some states, but i highly doubt that in california. you could probably beat paparazzi up all day for free in texas, florida, etc…

I’ve been late with this one, Bieber continues his downward spiral and is finally arrested for his contribution to pop music drinking under the influence and driving with an expired license. (Honestly though, I think it was 90% swearing at the cop).
You know they do this to balance their popularity right?
This guy seems to think so
I don’t understand why he would say that. Some of the things he said was correct but the last accusation was abit out there
That shi was funny as hell
i bet most of these fucks are looking for attention and purposely attract pap. easy way to get rid of these would be having some real niggas around you as an entourage (?) and have them “act” like fans. any pap gets close, your “fans” fuck them up, hard. you have no control of what crazed fans do. afterwards you have your people reward the “fans”, and give the biggest rewards to hurts the pap the most (1000 for broke nose, 10000 for broke face etc). do all this while staying out of the picture (in both ways) and i don’t really see a way to get caught by pap or popo.
edit: elite motherfuckers with diplomatic immunity don’t like being filmed or photographed. their big suit & shade wearing gorillas will “ask” you by grabbing and pulling you and “push” you by breaking your face with their fists to fuck off. guess what, you can’t do shit bout it. a rich motherfucker can’t even touch pap and gets fined, the really wealthy will send you straight to the hospital and it’s like nothing happened.
You know a fool is fake as fuck when seem to put on a bright smile for just the forward facing arrest photo. Son is spoiled and stupid, male version of Lindsey Lohan in terms of self destruction on the public stage.
Man, I feel sorry for celebrities… They probably can’t have a calm private life and should be always on the alert. I’ve discovered from celebtopnetworth.com that there were so maaany cases with paparazzi who were too much bothersome trying to make a photo of some celeb. I think that they should have more respect to people whom they try to photograph.
does this mean I don’t have to hear his name in the fucking news over trivial shit, while he is in the clink?
Also, I wasn’t aware that flaps on the back pockets of jeans was in style again…
If I was a celebrity, I’d have 500 acres in Wyoming and would only come to Hollywood for movie premiers and such. Lets see some celebrity jump my fence and travel on foot to take pictures of me. I don’t think it would be that hard to get out of the spotlight if you really wanted, you’d just have to move out of LA or NYC.
