NO QUARTER FROM PAPARAZZI
Many observers believed the tragic death of Britain’s Princess Diana and
two others in a 1997 car crash in a Paris tunnel while being chased by
photographers would lead the paparazzi to back off. But there is no indication
that’s happening:
· Mayhem erupted earlier this month in the western Indian city of Pune when
Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and their children fled in a motorized rickshaw to escape
a media horde. A few days earlier, reporters and a photographer complained that
they were manhandled by guards protecting Pitt and Jolie.
· Jennifer Aniston last year sued a photographer who she said used
“invasive, intrusive and unlawful measures” to take topless pictures of her in 2005
at her Hollywood Hills home. The suit was later settled.
· A photographer’s minivan plowed into Lindsay Lohan’s Mercedez Benz in
May 2005 when she made a U-turn while trying to escape pursuing paparazzi.
Authorities said that the photographer was “most likely driving carelessly” but did
not file charges.
The celebrities aren’t the only ones endangered by the media’s aggressive
behavior or the stars’ evasive measures:
A photographer was charged with assault after allegedly hitting a 5-year-old
girl with a camera and shoving two other people at California’s Disneyland in
September 2005 when he tried to take pictures of Reese Witherspoon and her 6-
year-old daughter. Britney Spears — whose mother Lynne once
tried to run over a gaggle of reporters and photographers —
drove off with her infant son in her lap in February after being
surprised by paparazzi outside a Starbucks in Malibu, Calif.
Those celebrity chroniclers who defend their aggressive
coverage argue that stars make a Faustian pact in which they
trade away their privacy for the perks of fame, then cry foul when
they realize the price they have paid.
And they reject the notion that in the “good old days,” celebrities were able to
cavort and carry on without press scrutiny. As long as there’s been a movie
business, they say, writers and photographer have been feeding the public’s
fascination for the people who appear on the silver screens. That argument is
partly true.
