I loved when she did it because that's who you DON'T expect to attack. With Kanye and his attitude, his attack wasn't so shocking...or even that newsworthy IMHO.

That was funny as hell. lol
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Good for Kanye. These stars that are rich enough to be followed around by TMZ shouldn't worry about a little old ticket for bustin' up one of their cameras. If I were that rich, I'd totally budget myself a yearly paparazzi freakout.

I mean how would you feel if every 5 minutes someone was hounding you taking pictures of you and when tomorrow they will be on the front of some tabloid newspaper with some lies attached to it. He's just sick of that shit, and he ain't the only celebrity to break some nosy photographers $10,000 camera either, and most likely won't be the last.

Why would he act like that at an airport.

IF you're in public you can be photographed and videotaped. That's just how it is. You may not like it...but you can't destroy people's property and attack them -- and in a high security/high-risk place like an airport? Stupid as hell.

Ya'll can be so dumb and closed minded on this site sometimes. I guess you would feel that way because you AREN'T A CELEBRITY and you aren't being put under a MICROSCOPE the whole time. He isn't the first to have done this, hell look at Princess Diana, she died running from those bastards. But ya'll have forgotten all about that right? disbelief I tell ya the bullshit on this site sometimes makes me shake my head.
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I'm guessing that people who are siding with the paparrazi on this have:
a. never actually seen them follow a celeb around live and up close
b. are paparazzi themselves or aspiring to be
or
c. simply don't like Kanye and are glad to see him get a little grief in his life (as if losing his mom not too long ago wasn't enough)

Either way, you're outta your minds if you think its as simple and innocent as them just walking around taking pictures. There's almost always antagonization involved. That "they are celebs and its part of the job" shit is something the press made up and repeats it so that the idiotic general public will regurgitate it and absolve them of any wrongdoings when they stalk these people. His job is to produce and perform music. That's it. Posing for pictures is a courtesy, not a requirement. They don't want the posed for pics anyway, they want the unflattering ones.

[Edited 9/11/08 12:41pm]


nod I think it's absolutely disgusting what the hard core paparazzi is capable of. People have already died trying to escape from them. They shouldn't be allowed to stalk celebrities like they do. Lock them up and throw away the key neutral

EXACTLY!!!! nod clapping

clapping preach. If it was one of those things then nobody would hardly be saying anything, but he gets arrested for something that is understandable, then people still talking shit about him. Sure the guy is arrogant, but damn he didn't blow up a building, or was high in the middle of a busy intersection off of cocaine or heroin. Unbelievable.

You cant have it both ways though, we were saying this shit a year ago when they surrounded Britneys car in traffic and wouldnt let her get out, and peeps on this forum were like, "oh thats ok she brought it on herself" now are saying Kanye is a victim? so what is it? cause we know this cat brings shit on himself too. Look im siding with the celebs because i feel the paps go way too far and tmz does illegal shit and i have seen them do it, just this past week at the fashion show in NYC, they are illegal and the shit they do should warrant arrest. But lets not have a double standard though.

Um. It was ONE photographer not a mob.

And one videographer who tuned in after and because the drama started.


This could have easily been avoided if Kanye would have kept walking and ignored them. Or he could have sought airport security. They were not impeding him.

He was at or near the security checkpoint already.


This can't be compared to the mobs that followed PRincess Di or Britney.

Kanye is immature and rash. Nope BK, I don't like him.

And yes I've been a member of the media.

I think because of the "illegal" Tmz and their techniques and of course the major talent of Perez Hilton, I mean why does this guy exist? We have created this culture of people that need to see everything! I for one and i know im not alone am SICK TO DEATH of seeing (insert celeb name here) pick out fruit at the grocery store, fill their gas tank, go to starbucks etc....Enough already, if you need to see a pic of whomever going to get gas so it makes you feel better about yourself to think that they are just like you, then you are an idiot, OF COURSE these peeps are just like you, they sleep they shit they eat they go to the bathroom, but sorry i dont need candids to know this.

BlaqueKnight, you sound like someone who has been harassed by the paps. lol

Kanye West is always begging for attention what with his publics tirades and temper tantrums but I think the reason why he acted like that is because of another pap situation that TMZ had on their site where he got upset because one pap was posted outside his private home. That was crossing the line because his face looked really anxious and concerned for his safety.

Yep. I stopped buying magazines like that a few years ago and haven't missed them. They used to be a piece of crap to flick through when having lunch at my desk - and even though I bought them I still had no idea who half the people being photographed were. If everyone did that they'd go out of business.

It's the rise to fame of bloggers like that loser Perez Hilton that perplex me.

A neighbour of mine once worked for Prince Charles - I think there was some royal scandal going on a couple of years ago involving false accusations with former employees or something and for about 2 weeks there were cars and paps outside my house. Really started to piss us off after a while cos no-one around is even famous. Can't imagine what it's like for someone who has to constantly endure it. Although the celebrities who tip off the press to gain attention when they want it shouldn't be complaining when they don't.

Papparazi deserve it!!! They can keep coming uo in peoples face all the time in every situation! It should be illegal, Actually it is! Harrassment laws and stalking laws are being broken not to mention the human right to privacy!

I hope the paps all go to jail and pay the celebs for their part in putting money in they poockets! Millions of dollars we are talking.

Go Kanye!

What happens when celebrities pay photogs to get in magazines and exposure? Im just really fascinated by this debate because as much as people turn their nose up at rag mag's it still seems to be a huge guilty pleasure of many.

I also remember a few years ago my final chasing Michael Jackson around the city voyage before getting completely sick of the circus - that time when MJ got mobbed in the recording studio car park, it was all because of the fucking paps pushing and grabbing him. Then when some of us got better pictures than they did because we actually stood back, they offered a mate of mine £10k for one of his photos. I have NO idea why he turned them down. Fuck integrity, I'd have taken that money.

Wow, that Bjork clip is great! Did she get arrested too?

You never know what a person is going through. It's bad enough celebs have to get up and go out into the world where people recognize them, they don't need random photogs chasing and snapping away at their most basic life functions.

Well, they cater to people with that same mentality as you once had. Read it just because it's there. That's dumb. I'm glad you stopped. I stopped myself years ago when I realised I was gaining absolutely NOTHING from it and all I was doing was feeding a huge corporation money in order for them to have the power to stalk more celebrities.

Anyone wanna know why all the celebs get carted off to rehab so quickly these days? The pressure. It wasn't always like this for EVERY single minor celeb. It used to be just the major superstar, now any D lister can get stalked and next thing you know that random gardener from desperate housewives is going to rehab after 2 weeks in the spotlight. It's crazy.

The mentality that some have "It's okay because they're famous" is just plain cruel. There's all kinds of stalking rules but the minute someone decides they'd like to entertain the world and show off some talent - suddenly said person is allowed to be treated like a circus animal? PLEASE. A celebrity is still a human, despite what some believe.

Then the braindead mentality of buying tabloids for the sake of it or for boredom? Think of all the money you spend on worthless lies on paper and what you could buy with it if you saved up. Who knows, maybe you'll become so rich, you'll become a celebrity then punch a photographer hiding in the bushes and wonder why the world hates you for it...

Oh wait...
