Paparazzi are photographers who take candid pictures of celebrities, often without their consent. They typically work for tabloids or entertainment news outlets, capturing images during public appearances, events, or even in private moments. The goal is to sell these photos to media companies, which can lead to significant profits. The presence of paparazzi can create tension between them and the celebrities they photograph. Many stars, such as Britney Spears and Princess Diana, have expressed discomfort with the invasive nature of paparazzi. This has led to discussions about privacy rights and the ethical implications of their work in the entertainment industry.
