				I have to admit that the behaviour of some of these guys is the pits. If the magazines didn't offer the money ...then they wouldn't do what they do.

				thats what it says... and good point to... Can you ultimately blame the consumer?

				That is amazing - i guess the magazines that offer that kind of money for a shot must think it is worth it.  If you look at it from the photographers point of view, it'd be very tempting to cross the line for that kind of money.  IMHO,  celebrities who make a living by selling their image to the media don't really have a leg to stand on complaining when someone tries to cash in on their marketability - that's how they make a living!

				It is a little like some of the reality TV shows. The stations say that they are just providing what the viewer wants. Sadly ratings seem to back them up.

				Oh yeah, people love this stuff. US magazine is huge here. I just travelled to Toronto and I think every other woman was reading a copy of this mag, and it is cover to cover paparazzi.
It sucks and I think that laws should protect them. No one deserves to be harassed all their lives because they are successful...
