| An end to paparazzi intrusion?
Although I am not a fan of Britney Spears, I do feel that the paparazzi have played a major part in her downfall. The footage of her being surrounded by photographers when she left hospital recently was particularly sickening.
I was therefore gratified to learn that one major organisation has pledged to take a stand.
In a statement just issued, top celebrity website Holy Moly said it was responding to "a definite change in the perception of paparazzi pictures around the world" over the past couple of weeks, due in large part to the hounding of the American singer Britney Spears. It listed the kinds of paparazzi shots which would henceforth be out of bounds, including pictures taken while "pursuing people in cars and on bikes", "celebrities with their kids", "people in distress at being photographed" and celebrities who are not "on duty".
It does however go on to say that certain categories of paparazzi shot are still "fair game", including "celebrities who attend premieres, launches, award ceremonies and press conferences", "idiots who go to places like The Ivy, Nobu et al for 'a quiet bite to eat'... likewise [nightclubs] Chinawhite, Mahiki," and "any blatant photo opportunity where tip-offs are given by the celebrity to the paparazzi". |
