Paparazzi

 

Paparazzi are photographers who follow celebrities around and take invasive, candid photos of them.

 

Photographers, often freelance, who take candid shots, often in an intrusive manner, of celebrities for newspapers or magazines.

Plural form of paparazzo; freelance photographers who sell photographs of celebrities to the media, especially ones who pursue celebrities and attempt to obtain candid photographs.

A candid photograph is a photograph captured without creating a posed appearance

 

 

Paparazzi scandals 

Princess Diana's death in a 1997 Paris car accident has been widely blamed on paparazzi who were chasing the car.

 In 2008, Sienna Miller won $80,000 in settlements after suing British paparazzi who she said harassed her and invaded her privacy, by chasing her while she was in her car and stalking her outside her home.

 

In February 2006, Britney Spears was branded a "bad mother" when photos of her driving with her infant son in her lap instead of in a car seat surfaced.
