What is going on with all these actors/actresses who are going balistic on the papparazi and the news show media? Woody Harrelson just physically attacked a camera man and Billy Bob Thornton took offense that someone on a Canadian radio show said he was an actor. Do these people NOT realize that they are celebrities and will be in the public eye? Doesn't that come with the territory when one is a celebrity? Granted the 'pap's' can get a little bothersome, but to physically attack them is wrong. What do you think about these actors/actresses attitudes? Think some are on drugs?

Physically assaulting anyone, whether you are a celebrity or just an ordinary person is wrong. However, I don't think their being actors should be taken as cabal to make them good guys all the time nor accuse them to be on drugs when they have done something ordinary people with anger management problem do. They are still humans. Just recently, our local news showed different instances where ordinary individuals reacting violently when they were about to be caught in news cameras. That only shows that it is but human when one doesn't want to be in the limelight.

perhaps if they dont want to be in the spotlight they should move out of hollywood. julia roberts has a ranch outside of the state (cant remember where right off hand though) and she has all the privacy in the world pretty much until she comes to california. when she does show up, she knows what to expect and i've never seen her get violent. she apparently knows how to 'play the game'?

What?? DRUGS?? Our actors and actress on drugs.....of course they are IMO.angry. I do think the papparazi should have a 200 yard rule though. In other words they should stay that far back. In poor Woodys defense he is no longer the youn good looking bartender that he was on Cheers! I just loved Woody then and I love him now. If i were to give a chuckele and call him OLD then shame on me and i should go look in the mirror and have a talk with that old lady with the chicken neck that stands behind my mirror. Their attitude are probably just like any normal joes who has had a difficult couple of weeks at the job. They probably just want to be left alone. Now ALSO I do believe if they do not want to be bothered whut would it bother them to stay inside of their 12 million dollar mansions and hire someone to go get what they need. If I had millions I woulduild a small house for me and a big barn for animal rescues and a big barn for a gym and I would NEVER go out, I would hire one of my ninja friends to do that for me.ninjaninja


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

Drugs!? LOL! Look at Billy Bob Thornton's interview with that DJ on the Canadian radio show. If thats not doing drugs, I dont know what is. He made NO SENSE at all. Woody used to be nice looking and funny on Cheers so you're right. He is no longer the young good looking person he was on tv thus the reason for his temper tantrums I guess. We're all getting older but some of those celebrities, they've aged so fast and furious from all the partying, then when they lose their looks, they lash out at people and the paparazzi. Thats not right.

i guess they're just tired of some of the paps constantly invading their privacy just in general,it would wear on anybody.but that's kind of the trade off for being famous.i've got to say though i'm surprised some of the paps haven't been struck more often,some of them are just plain rude about how they get their pictures.


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

thats what i thought too, its a tradeoff for being a celebrity.

Celebrities,like everyone else deserve some privacy from these as*h**es.
Yes,they are public figures and do know that their lives are open books,but you must also remember,most of the pictures and comments end up in tabloids that are just not true.
If the photo takers,and not all of them are papparazi,would ask permission or at least back off when requested,there would be less violance against them,in my mind,if they do not leave when asked,I would shoot them.
thanks for the discussion.


myLot reputation of 92/100. SpikeTheLobster (3453)   ranked 362 out of 4,344 in have discussion on day to day issues  3 years ago

I'll second that! It's one thing to be in the public eye, but quite another to have NO privacy - even when you're with your family, kids or a sick friend (for example). Paparazzi should be allowed to take photos, but should have the decency to back off when requested. The vast majority of the news media are sensationalist scum, unfortunately.


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

I will agree with that. The papparazi from the tabloids are horrendous, others not so bad, like TMZ. If they would stand back perhaps and use a zoom lens, thats permissible I would think. Maybe the papparazi is worse than I thought. Case in point, Nadya Suleman. She wanted to be in the spotlight now she is (supposedly) changing her mind.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 497 out of 4,344 in have discussion on day to day issues  3 years ago

Definitely agree with you here mac1946...the paparazzi are the rudest, most obnoxious a-holes going and give a bad rap to real honest photographers (like me..LOL). They resort to any trick in the book to get that photo for those tabloids, even to the point of downright invading the privacy of the celebrities in their own homes. But no wonder, the paparazzi are so determined to get photos...one "exclusive" type photo of a celebrity, usually in a compromising situation (like maybe sunbathing au natural in their backyard) can fetch over $10,000.00

Thank you all for the kind words.

You forgot to mention Christian Bale also! I am still waiting for him to come out with an explanation for his tantrum. Ah well as long as nobody gets hurt it's entertaining seeing these idiots on youtube freakin out.

Happy easter everyone!


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

Yeah, Christian Bale is one that I too am waiting for his explanation. Talk about having a short fuse!

The problem with these people is they forget (we) are the ones who made them rich and famous! And when we want to know anything about them, such as going through the papparazi for information, they act as though they are little gods and high above everyone else! Personally I think they are all rotten snots, and many ARE on drugs too!


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

so true! sad but too true, they do forget that we are the ones who made them rich and famous!

Yes it's wrong for any person, whether a celebrity or not to go berserk and attack someone like that, but the paparazzi can be real royal pains in the "A". Many stalk celebrities and invade their privacy at their own homes all to get a lousy photo of a celebrity in sometimes embarrassing or compromising situations. Yes, when people become celebrities they do kind of lose the rights of ordinary people, but they are human too, and sometimes I think celebrities will automatically attack anyone they see with a camera simply cause they are fed up. It's not only the paparazzi that can be annoying but even the news media itself. I remember when Liam Neeson's wife had died, yikes the paparazzi and news media were surrounding him like vultures as he was coming out of the funeral home where his deceased wife was...Like yikes now come on...can't the poor guy have privacy at such a time of his grief?


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

lets not forget too what the paparazzi did to john travolta when his son died. they went way over the line on that one...........


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 497 out of 4,344 in have discussion on day to day issues  3 years ago

Yes I thought that was tacky, to say the least the way they hounded Travolta after his son's death.

Well you can't blame these actors because the paparazzi used insulting words to get the actors mad and get a good shot even a scoop.
They even invade the privacy of some celebs home like the paparazzi who used a super duper techie camera to get inside Angelina Jolie's children's bathroom to take a shot of her bathing her kids. Its just too much.
Yeah they may be celebrities and their lives maybe a public prorperty but they are human too, they get mad too when provoked. They are not saints, that I am very sure.


myLot reputation of 98/100. 4pawsx4 (774)  3 years ago

to invade the privacy of a celebrity while they are in their home is a no no in my opinion. when a celebrity is out in public, down a street, whatever, thats when they are putting themselves in the public eye and can expect that the paparazzi will be there with camera's in hand. they cant say too much about that, its a public street so anyone can be 'there'

Well, on the one hand I would say these people are human after all and they have their limitations and there are any number of factors that go into someone having a bad day. People have outbursts all the time but we do not hear about it as much because they are not famous.

Celebrities have problems like everyone else and some are immature and yes some have substance problems. The problem is with our society at large and how it encourages certain behaviors, rewards some and excuses others until things get out of hand.
