Who Is The Real Paparazzi In Our Society
Our society like never before has become totally obsessed with
the celebrity lifestyle, celebrity gossip, celebrity rumors,
and the highs and Lows of celebrity scandal. Where will it end,
when is enough - enough? Those are just a few of the must know
questions we will answer in this article.
It has gotten to the point of pandemonium where we, the public,
literally purchase billions of dollars each year of the latest
Hollywood tabloid magazines, celebrity photos and anything that
is for sale about celebrity gossip, celebrity exposed, and
celebrity scandals.
Who is at the forefront of all this marketing and selling of
this celebrity tabloid? Well the paparazzi of course. The ones
who stand outside of LAX for hours to ambush poor little
Britney just to get a picture of her right after she has given
full custody of her children to K-fed!
The ones who show up in Bermuda shorts at Malibu beach to shoot
pictures of Matthew McConaughey while Surfing. Only to have an
end result being a broken Paparazzi nose and some good shoving
and a few punches thrown by pissed off Locals defending the
famous celebrity. They are the camera toting media hypsters who
everyone just Loves to Hate. And they are the ones always up in
the grills of the Hollywood actors and Hollywood actresses. In
many circles they are referred to as Monsters.
But are the paparazzi really the monsters? Are they the ones
perpetuating the commercialization of celebrity gossip and
celebrity scandals?
The Local Los Angeles police chief recently said in Public that
generally speaking the Paparazzi are NOT the actual Problem,
but the famous celebrities themselves are. They are the ones
acting in ways that encourage paparazzi madness.
Personally, I believe that each one of us is the real Paparazzi
in our own right. We continue to watch the downfall of these
famous celebrities with so much curiosity and devotion. And we
are the ones that shell out Big Bucks to view the work of these
professional
Paparazzi. The Sales of Tabloid continue to go up each year
with over $1 Billion total in 2007!
As new Hollywood actors and Hollywood actresses break onto the
scene of Tinseltown and new celebrity scandals start popping up
the viscous cycle just starts all over again. The Paparazzi is
really just a microcosm of our society and what it has come to
symbolize.
This much despised Media is just an extension and manifestation
of the Public's lust for entertainment and its obsessive
curiosity of famous celebrities and their lifestyles.
So is it not us who are the true monsters? This is something
each of us needs to think about next time we hypnotically stare
at another Picture of Lindsay deep in a drunken stupor or
gawking at the newborn pictures of Bran and Angelina
So just take a look in the mirror and you might be surprised to
see a little pudgy guy with Bermuda shorts holding a video
camera staring back. Then put yourself in the celebrities and
see how happy you would be.
