Brad Pitt Calls For Stricter Paparazzi Laws
Dec 3, 2008 AT 11:42 am
"Let me be very blunt: I hate them. I hate these people. I don’t understand why they do that for a living.
"We’ve got to make a distinction between these people who photograph celebrities at events and people who climb over your walls or wear camouflage and call out your kids names as you’re trying to take them to school to see if they’ll look that way.
"I have no respect for these people. I do not like them. I don’t understand how they can live their lives that way. There should be laws against it. They should not be able to follow kids like this, but there’s not right now so that’s the way it is."
-- Brad Pitt

These people are constantly b*tching about their right-to-privacy. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Talk to your government, get the word out, gather other like-minded individuals and petition your Congressmen. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. It's not like they're working all day every day, unable to take time out to handle this.

Thank you for saying that. That is exactly what I would do if I was a celebrity getting hounded by the paparazzi. They really don't have the quality of life like most people. I know, I know...they're celebrities. But when they can't even go to the store, the Drs., the park with their kids, a restaurant, even their own yards, etc. without being stalked by these loons, well, I think that is a very sad life indeed.
I couldn't agree more. No matter how publicity-addicted celebs are, their children should be left in peace. I for one would be very happy without daily pictures of Shiloh, Suri and all the rest.
yoo think that is possible if they sell photos of their children for 14,000,000? and make them tabloid news by doing that? They know the game OK? Or getting people Angelina's breastfeeding photos...These people are narcissists and hypocrites. They would not even be making money they make if it would not be for paparazzi.
I repeat: No matter how publicity-seeking PARENTS are - the KIDS should be left alone. They can't choose their parents, after all. And if their parents can't or won't protect them (I don't know which category the Jolie-Pitts are in) the law should.
LOL..dont hate the paparazzi, hate the people that purchase their pics, you think these people are climbing over walls for their health, or keeping the picutres they take of celebrities on their fireplace mantles? NO!!!!!! they are selling those suckers for money. So if there is demand, than you will have people climbing fences and calling your children's name....it's all in the name of the big dollar. if you want it to stop you are asking the wrong people. Talk to the people who buy the photos and the fans who go to the website/buy the magazines. No demand/ No supply......!
....blogges like Vera and the rest buy these pictures. The paps sell them, in turn photo agencies buy them and sell them to bloggers, magazines. Everyone is involved, including the celebrities themselves. Brad should start at home with Angelina, she is the first one to sell her pictures and call the paps to where she is going to be. I say f*ck them both.
You're right Brad only the pictures that are taken of your kids after you and Angelina collect millions for them...those are the picures that should be allowed.
you understand right, that in real life it does not work like this. Someone who sells photo of children for that amount of money forever makes their children lives public. Angelina and Brad know this game. And it i helps them make more money everytime.
Brad Pitt isn't even good looking anymore - Does anyone agree?? I for one have moved on.
You hit the nail on the head, that's for sure! Since he's been with Jolie, his looks have totally gone downhill.
My friend recommended me a very interesting place ^^^^MillionaireLoving. C O M^^^^ It 's where you have the opportunity dreaming about dating a millionaire and make it true!
He should start by not pimping his kids, not putting pics of his GF half naked in W etc.
I like gossip but I didn't ask the paparazzi to climb celebs' walls to get their kids' pictures. I am happy with a generic pic. It's the story that interests me. I for one don't care to see the Brangelina kids' pictures. If I never see their pics ever again, I'm OK with it, same about all the other celebs. One thing that bothers me is the stars. They seem to hate the paparazzi when it's not convenient for them but I've heard of some of them tipping them off to get a photo opp. So I don't know what to believe anymore. Do y'all remember when the Brangelina went to Africa and there was that photo opp right after his divorce? It's those things that make me have less sympathy for celebs. Then after watching Britney on her documentary last weekend, I felt bad for her. So I'm confused.

The real problem is.....US. They take the pictures and can sell them for money because we want to see them. Its hard to look in the mirror like this - but its true. I am part of the problem. Perhaps our New Years Resolution should be to cut back on the celebrity watching and live our lives. (I'm as guilty as anyone - not trying to be judgemental)
the real problem is that someone wants to make money. Celebrities make money, and the more they appear in tabloids the more gigs they get, it is a cycle. Magazines make money as well. People pay money to be given to celebrities and magazines. Or to come on websites and perhaps purchase advertized products or provide their emails for marketing(when you register) just to read about celebs. There is a whole market for people email adresses that ae captureb by webhosts, plus the demographic info that is not that difficult to figure out.Web owner makes money on it.See the differnce? Stop blaming people.
No, I don't. They (photographers, magazines, etc) could not make money if there were little to no market for the pictures (consumers - that's us). No money would be made without the consumers demand to see the product. Have you taken in economics classes yet? How do you conclude that the consumers have no blame?
just the same way you conclude people are to blame. Your argument against mine. Only mine makes more sense.
No, if were weren't seeking out the pictures (in magazines, websites, etc) there would be no market for them - no money to be made. Without a market (demand) there is not need for the supply of pictures, and no need for the photographers to go to crazy and intrusive lengths to get the pictures.
yes i took classes about the law of supply and demand. now you can shove all the economics up Brad's arse. Subprime housing--perhaps the law of supply and demand?
What do subprime loans have to do with photographers?
What do subprime loans have to do with photographers?
he's an idiot - he's the one that is whoring his children out and constantly talking about his private life - he should have not expose his children in the first place - why the F did he take pictures of Angelina and children for W magazine, pose for People magazine then?? why is he always dressing up like a movie star with that stupid hat and Angelina is always wearing a skirt (even just going to convenience store)? he is so phony it's unbelievable. I have no sympathy of them whatsoever....he got himself in this mess - deal with it.
he should not expose his tattoes on his body and then keep talking about them. Then I say he cares about his privacy. Dislike these people. They made millions by being in focus of paparazzi camera
Stop pimping the family out...plain and simple. Shut up and stop doing interviews and stop "printing" your personal pictures, etc....etc....Seems to me that it's only when it's not a professional personally set-up by them that there are complaints. Always trying to keep up some kind of perfect image that has never existed since the two of them have hooked up. I don't ever recall when it was just Angelina & Maddox all the b.s. that there is now!
If Brad and Angie didn't court the paps on occasion, I'd feel their pain. They use them when they feel it's necessary. losethatgirl blog

He looks like a pervert and ifhe wants privacy then stop whoring out your family!!! As it has been said before, there are plenty of celeb parents that we hardly ever see yet they are A list.
he is joking right? because if it would not be for paparazzi he no one would be interested in him. They create media blitzes with their actions, that in turn makes them be desirble for paparazzi. They can stop whoring themselves in media circuits with their extreme approaches to life, and no paparazzi will be intrested in them at all.
Brad HAS to be joking--he is with the BIGGEST publicity whore in the world: Angelina Jolie!
I admit I do like to see the pics but I mean the general pics- maybe from an event, red carpet, some place very public from a distance. I do not like that they are like a mob, crowding in, calling to the kids, scaling walls, flying over head. Those vulture pics are what he's talking about.
