Does the public have the right to take pictures of celebrities?

Question

I am in a debate on this. I have the side that is for the public's right to know. Any opinions are welcome.

Answer 1

They get pretty well compensated for it

Answer 2

Yeah.

Answer 3

NO, How would you like it if someone would take a picture of you and you not know about it and they but your picture on the net. Better yet how would you feel if it was your child? Everyone has a chose in life and if I was them I wouldn't want you or anyone else to take my picture. The public doesn't have the right to know anything. Celebrities are people to and I think we don't realize that at all. It is the same thing as someone taking someone’s id your intruding in their life and you just don’t care just as long as you are happy. God Bless!!

Answer 4

Paparazzi should be outlawed. Vultures and rats are better company.

The public has a right? Says who? When you wake up and have to fend off cameras until you sleep that night, how is that right? Anyone that defends these vermin and purchase the s**t rags that contains those photos are no better.

So Wi_Saint, I will follow you and your family, and children when you are not there, and bother than all days asking them stupid questions. Until they mentally snap...no harm..You see no big deal with that.......let me know when I can start to invade your privacy, let's start by posting where you kid goes to school....since you see no harm....

Answer 5

yeah because celebrities know when they start getting popular that fans and papparazi will take pictures of them and want autographs.  If they dont like it they can cover their faces.

Answer 6

to stalk a celebrity just cos 'you' the public want to find out whats happening in someones life - get ur own life!!!!!!

Answer 7

can you do it to other people? da da daaaaaaaaaaaa

Answer 8

Yes, we do. Celebrities choose to be in the public light and therefore need to accept that we, the public, are going to know what they're doing.

We , the public, do go overboard though. We ruin relationships and we cause fights among celebrities.

Answer 9

Why would you want to?

Answer 10

Yes I think its ok if you ask them first. Not going up to them when they are eating etc and flashing in their face is rude, so not like that!

Answer 11

i don't think so.. nobody likes it either to have a photographer stalking you where ever you go. It is more worst if someone print you on magazine while you are dressing up at your worst.

Answer 12

The public has the right to do anything it wants, as long as nobody is hurt, and in this case, it is permissable as long as you are NOT told to not take any pictures.

Part of being a celeb is knowing that people want your picture and autograph...

Answer 13

Sure.  Why not?  Just do it politely.

Answer 14

h**l ya.

Answer 15

Yes.....unless they're on private property.....then I think people should back off.

Their children are always off-limits.
