I appreciate everyone trying to hustle to put food on their family’s table, you can do all these legitimately and as you so please but not to the detriment of another person’s happiness or reputation! It’s so wrong to drag another person’s name into the mud for your business to thrive! Very very wrong!
Just the way I detest bloggers who spread false news on their blogs, I detest these photographers (paparazzi) who are always in the faces of celebrities and public figures trying to snoop around, no offense to anyone in this line of business.
I have always known that celebrities go through a lot from the public, I knew they were constantly criticized, I knew they were often trolled by cyber bullies, and the rest but I never knew how bad it was until I watched Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s documentary on Netflix.
I didn’t know how tough it was to be a public figure until I saw that documentary and my respect for celebrities and public figures grew.
Imagine a bunch of paparazzi following you everywhere, watching your every move, and waiting for you to screw up so you could make headlines.
From the beginning of the documentary, the couple spoke about the early days of their relationship, how they had to disguise and also hide in public whenever they wanted to see each other. Imagine you are in love with someone and you can’t tell anybody about it or you can’t be seen openly because of what the media would say about your relationship.
This couple went through a lot to be where they are now. Love is a good thing, it’s supposed to come with so much joy and excitement but this couple were more stressed than anyone else. Watching their every move, concealing and enduring a lot all thanks to the paparazzi and the media houses that were never tired of causing havoc!
Sometimes I see these paparazzi as a bunch of jobless people. You literally stand outside people’s buildings, you hide in bushes, you disguise yourself just to get shots of people who are busy with their lives. You come up with silly stories, whether true or false to entice the general public just to make your story sell.
It boils down to the fact that if these people you follow around do not show up that means you do not have any story to sell for that day? Lol, trust some of them to even invent what never happened.
For Megan and Harry, it took more than love for their relationship to work because how do you constantly see your face on the papers and tabloids and mean things are written about you, people assume and write rubbish things about you and not to talk about when they start digging into your past. Now that I think about it, Megan is one hell of a strong woman as I don’t think I have such thick skin to bear all the shades.
Imagine I grew up as a normal girl only to be introduced to the spotlight and in no time this spotlight causes more harm than good.
I can’t imagine what Megan and Harry went through. It was recorded that some paparazzi used drones and helicopters to take pictures of their son when he was still a baby. Their privacy was invaded at all costs!
One time they were chased for two hours in the city of New York. I know these are public figures, but c’mon can these guys live? Can they breathe without a story coming up?
These celebrities and public figures are humans too not superheroes, they are prone to make mistakes like other humans, these paparazzi should try to cut them some slack!
