Writer's Block: The Right to Privacy

[kethni]

[Error: unknown template qotd]To a certain extent celebrities determine how much privacy they give up. If they court the press when it suits them then they arguably have already stepped over the line. There are plenty of celebrities who keep a low profile without it affecting their work so it isn't a prerequisite.

I remember earlier this summer Greg tweeted that he tried to take his family to the beach but got swarmed by the poperatzi so much they were forced to leave. Weather they court the press or not when a celebrity is out with his family the press should back the fuck off.

Agreed, children and family haven't 'consented' implicitly or explicitly. Oh, and a personal bugbear is not so much the press but fans - if celebs are eating let them eat. Don't bug them for autographs when they're chilling, geez.
