Reynolds touts one of his pals again because the guy, who knows jack shit about celebrity and paparazzi, blasts the celebs. I had a short---very short---acquaintance with some fame and I can tell you that nobody is ready for it. Think of your home surrounded by guys with cameras HIDING in trees and bushes; think your infant being photographed everywhere; think going to the bathroom as legit targets for photo ops because they shoot through the window; fishing, even at private streams, is not possible because the assholes actually tramp in the stream; ditto if you go deep sea fishing and see a boatload of them following you; hotel rooms are a public place; they actually follow you in your car or cab to shoot you when you get out of the cab. You say they don't bother you if you don't want them to? Oh yes they will. They were chasing Princess Di at 90 mph speeds when she bought it. You are safe only if you have the bucks like Tom Cruise who hires lawyers to sue anybody any time they infringe upon his privacy, and even then he is called a fag---with no proof---a drug user, ditto etc. Should you think that your personal life is personal, you lose. There has to be a line between public and private for everyone.
