WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PRESS CHASING DANIEL?
Posted: Wed Oct 15, 2008 12:21 am
Hi
Just wondering what your views are on the Press photographing Daniel out on the street, in his personal life, his new home? Do you feel it's an invasion or are you pleased we get these shots to see? Do you feel there should be a limit on when they take photos or what? Are you secretly glad the photographers do follow Daniel and Satsuki everywhere they spot them in their personal life, or is there a difference for movie previews, publicity, premieres, Awards, etc and taking photos there?
I'm referring to the latest photos of his new house in Regent's Park. Some of you have made really interesting comments and I think it would make an interesting discussion on Daniel and his privacy.
Do photographers follow Daniel 24/7 to get these personal photos e.g. Daniel's new house in Regents Park? Haven't they got other things to do or don't they know the difference between totally invading one's privacy (even if they are famous) and taking shots at premieres, etc? I guess not!!!! Plus it's all about the MONEY!!!!
At the same time I admit I love seeing some of the personal shots of Daniel alone or with Sats, or others!!! (Just being honest!!!) Yet at the same time I realize they do deserve privacy and not everything lived out in the public arena or is that Madonna? I get confused around it all sometimes.
Sad but we have become an age on insatiable beings!!!! (me included at times!!!) Plus with technology everything is processed so much further.
Have any of you seen the Punk Rock coloured overweight Australian (nothing against Aussies because I have friends from there and my niece lives in Sydney) Darren (can't remember his last name) who lives in London and runs Big Pictures with his ex-wife and employs so many of these photographers all over the world. They send their shots by internet to Darren who then sells them to every media outlet he can for a lot of money!!! Darren says the f--k word every 5 mins or so.
Just remembered!! There was a fascinating English documentary on Darren, his business, etc and part of it featured when Sienna Miller broke up with Jude Law (nanny affair) and the photographers literally had cameras in her face, following her car to her flat, mum's place, everywhere she went. Well, one evening they filmed our gorgeous Daniel going into a restaurant to meet her (blurry) and then lost them because Sienna & Daniel had gone out the back entrance separately to her flat. Sure enough Daniel was there and they all camped outside her flat all night waiting to hound him. I don't think they ever saw him leave, although he must have done but secretly!!! I'd forgotten that until now!!!
The photographers followed Charlotte Church on a summer beach holiday on one of the Islands in the Mediterranean, and she and her girlfriend (before her 1st baby) had to put up dividers/partitions between the photographers taking photos (lying on the sand trying to look hidden) and the place they were staying at, positioned on the beach. It was awful to witness because how could Charlotte and her friend relax. They can't even have a holiday privately!!!
One of Darren's guys was the man who took the first pictures of Angelina and Brad together with Maddox, spying on them, and those pictures Darren sold for what sounded like a million dollars. His biggest amount to that date!!! Brad & Ang had no idea the guy was there; he was like behind a small sand dune or something with his long range tele focus lense.
Darren has no qualms about how he makes his money as he says, which is true "the demand is there" so "we meet the public's demand". But they are so invasive from what I saw.
One of his photographers was across the other side of the street in London, with his camera out the car window, celebrity spotting. He suddenly saw this young blond lady walking. He then chased this poor woman walking, and when she arrived at the salon to have her nails done, he photographed her in the salon and saw her on her cellphone. When she left, she met up with a male friend whom she had obviously phoned to come and protect her from this photographer. The man came across asking "what is going on" and the photographer only then discovered it wasn't Sienna Miller. He was so disappointed that he had wasted time following a member of the public, not realizing the lady was aware he was there and that she probably felt she was being stalked.
Interesting!!! Darren is like a multimillionaire, lives in a very wealthy area of London, promotes a girl band and topless models, etc.
It's interesting to note that Sienna said (no matter what you think about her and her men. I won't even go there!!!) that she was suing Big Pictures for invading her privacy re the topless photos embracing with what looked like a bit more than that with Balthazar Getty!!!
What are your views girls???
I'd love to know. Enough of my rambling and it's up to you now for your views.
