Paparazzi can be considered as photojournalists. They have a specialty however, in that they tend to take pictures of people who do not want their picture taken. The word “paparazzi” is said to have originated in the Fellini movie, “La dolce vita.” The story of how Fellini came about selecting the character, the name, and the real-life character have been disputed for a number of years.

Modern day paparazzi are actually in demand by the celebrity obsessed fans. They are photographers who go on a hunt. Their hunt happens to be celebrities, public figures, and family members. Since they often shoot pictures when the opportunity arises they are often very candid and unflattering, sometimes even during compromising moments. These are the photos the celebrities really despise and add reasons for them to mostly dislike the paparazzi.

Sometimes the photographers hang out on streets celebrities are known to frequent. More often they are found in public places where they wait for the chance to get that one special picture. That one picture can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. They might be compared to a private detective. Each one has a network of “informers.” These people help keep tabs on the whereabouts of certain celebrities. They can be a stylist in a hair salon, a waiter in a restaurant, or a salesclerk in a fashionable botique. Sometimes they are paid for their information.

Some paparazzi might have the motto, “Get a shot by any means necessary.” Sometimes this causes the photographer to be resourceful, other times s/he is crafty, still, other times s/he shows a lot of nerve. You might find them on a rooftop or even in a tree. Others rent a helicopter for a special event, such as a wedding, or a boat.

The paparazzi, if really bold and good in the field of photography, can make a lot of money with just one photo. This is the reason they will be around for many years to come.

Every week it seems like a new celebrity is throwing down with the paparazzi. Britney Spears has smacked a camera man. Matthew McConaughey’s surf buddies were quick to pick a fight with his picture-snapping stalkers. Even notoriously mild-mannered celebrities like actor Tobey Maguire have been pushed to their limit by the paparazzi. Many of the celebrities that have managed to avoid physical altercations with the paparazzi still feel the urge to express their dislike for them with foul language and gestures that can’t be shown on public television.

Why can’t these two groups seem to get along? If you believe the paparazzi’s side of the story, then you think they’re just everyday people trying to cut their own paychecks with candid pictures of celebs. It’s the hot-headed, self-righteous and frequently inebriated stars that are to blame.

On the other hand, if you’re batting for Team Celebrity then you likely think that paparazzi are unethical opportunists. They’ll scale a wall to get a picture of a celebrity’s children at play in their backyard or strap on a zoom lens so they can take a picture of a new celebrity mother breastfeeding her baby in her own living room. It’s hard to argue that at least some paparazzi have personal space issues.

To be fair, in some situations both parties are at fault. The paparazzi are endangering their targets by making it hard for them to see while they drive, and they’re invading moments that should be personal. Alternately, sometimes they just happen to be in the right place at the right time, standing on a public sidewalk outside a club, but they’ve captured a moment that a belligerent celebrity is not readily going to have published.

The paparazzi are a group of photojournalists who specialize in photographing celebrities during candid and unwanted moments. The paparazzi are generally freelance photographers who sell their images to magazines, gossip websites, and television studios. The paparazzi have had a significant amount of negative press against them because of incidental reports where they violate the celebrity’s civil rights to privacy as well as some situations of assault.

To prevent the photographers from continuing to follow them around, many celebrities have sued and pressed charges against the paparazzi. In some extreme cases, the celebrities and their bodyguards have used violence to sway the paparazzi from continuing to photograph them.

In recent years, members of the paparazzi have used the legal system to get back at the celebrities who have either assaulted them or damaged their reputation. In September 2009, a member of the paparazzi sued Tom Brady and his wife Gisele Bundchen over an incident in which their bodyguard assaulted the paparazzi member after he took unwanted photos of the couple. Allegedly, the bodyguard fired shots at the photographer and demanded that the camera and memory card be destroyed.

In 2007 Denise Richards and Pamela Anderson were sued for assaulting members of the paparazzi. The paparazzi claimed that the women went into a violent rage after the paparazzi took unwanted photos of the two women. The paparazzi member claimed he was physically and verbally assaulted by Richards and Anderson for over 20 minutes. The women also reportedly destroyed the man’s camera and laptop computer.

In 2008, actor Keanu Reeves was sued for allegedly hitting a member of the paparazzi with his car. The victim claimed that he was unable to due to injury and he asked for a settlement of $700,000 to compensate for his injuries and lost income. The case was thrown out after the photographer was filmed working and using his injured hand.

It is a good idea to read celebrity blogs every day rather than read magazines for many reasons. Celebrity blogs provide the most up to date information on what’s happening with their lives. They can be updated at any time, any place, anywhere. Lots of times they are updated by the celebrities themselves, so you are getting the information first hand. Other times, they have a correspondent who does the work for them, but they generally have a good idea of what’s going on with them and how they want their blog pages to look.

When you buy a magazine, you never know whether or not the information in it is true or not. The same can be true for celebrity blogs if you do not choose one that is authentic, but it is more likely that you will be able to get the most genuine information as long as you make sure that you have their real blog, and not a fake.

You do not have to pay to view a blog, but magazines cost anywhere between three and five dollars to purchase. If you get one every week, that’s between twelve and twenty dollars per month, just to pay for information that is only updated once every seven days.

Celebrity blogs are a popular trend for getting the scoop on what’s going on in their lives. What better way to find out what’s going on with your favorite celebs than to to hear it straight from their mouths? It’s exciting to know that your favorite actor or singer is updating their very own blogs and that you are reading this information as soon as they post an update. So, in the end, you’ve saved time and money that you would have spent on a magazine, and you are getting the most up to date information on the people you want to hear about most.

The TV programming landscape changed dramatically in 1992 though nobody had a clue at the time. Starting with MTV’s The Real World, a show documenting the trials of seven random housemates in a lush apartment provided by the network, reality TV was introduced to mass audiences. This wasn’t a documentary though. The Real World pushed buttons and challenged ideas. It had more intense drama than a soap opera could ever dream of and none of it had to be scripted. These antics drew in television viewers and created a demand for reality television.

Only when the game show aspect was put into place did reality television take off to astronomical heights. The reality game show Survivor came out in 2002, solidifying reality TV into pop culture forever. Soon enough everyone had their own television show like Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson (The Newlyweds), Kathy Griffith (Life on the D List), and the Gotti family (Growing Up Gotti). Family networks jumped on the bandwagon as well with nanny shows, make-over shows, and design shows. Trading Spaces, Nanny 911, and What Not To Wear all took off because of this movement.

Reality TV is so appealing to viewers because it shows that side of life nobody else sees. Suddenly everybody’s dirty laundry was fair game and it made people feel good about themselves as well as keep them entertained. Make-over shows didn’t just do this, but it also gave useful information for those in the same situation. Home Improvement shows weren’t for your dad anymore (This Old House), but were entertaining for a larger audience who had little knowledge of the inner workings of the construction business.

Programming like this will never die down because it gives the layman a look into another aspect of life. Anybody can turn on the television and see tips on decorating or look into the life of somebody in a high demand career such as modeling and cooking. It also shows an element of life that was before, only portrayed in the most innocent way. Shows like Bewitched and Leave it to Beaver didn’t accurately portray the family dynamic and that is what viewers are looking for. The future of television programming will always have to involve the honesty and entertainment of reality television because the average viewer has had a taste and isn’t giving it up.
