In class today we finished up watching the "Sellebrity" video and we touched up on a few main ideas. A few things that came up from the video was taking into consideration that the paparazzi are doing their job, which is putting food on their table. An interesting thin to ask is "How far would you go?" just to get new gossip on these celebrities. Gossip which isn't always true because as the video said, some of these photos are used to create stories. These stories are driven by people wanting to know anything and everything, but no one takes into consideration the damage to the celebrities. For example, a rock star who sued because he was accused of sleeping with underage boys and urinating on them. He said so himself, "it made my life HELL!" and it was all done to get people just to read their magazine. So here's the question, Does the paparazzi go to far?" The paparazzi has 1st Amendment rights, which includes "Right to press" but does that include one's personal life? These are a few ideas to think about as we write our reflection for "Sellebrity".
