Paparazzi in the Philippines

I am quite convinced that there is money in taking snapshots of our local celebrities. Wherever they go, whenever the go out of the country, perhaps Filipino’s familiarity on online press made it possible to finally open doors for Filipino paparazzos. Take the case of Ruffa and John Lloyd. They are practically nobodys in the states but our kababayans took the liberty of spreading pictures of the together shopping at the Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. I have a theory that there is a Filipino in any part of the world. It just makes sense that no local celebrity can hide from the prying eyes of Filipino bystanders.

I think more trouble is in store for local celebrities who are fond of making scenes at the local circles. However, it takes a great deal of popularity of stardom to finally sell a snap shot of an unsuspecting actress/actor, socialites and athletes and more of big names and their indiscreet acts. I’d like to see more of these pictures. Boy that would be something to look forward to every day -- another form of free amusement at the expense of our local celebrities’ privacy.
