THE HILARY DUFF PHOTO MYSTERY

In the years before Hilary Duff became pregnant with her fiancée Matthew Koma’s baby, she complained bitterly about the paparazzi following her. The Younger star had tantrums and loud confrontations with photographers and griped endlessly about them. But AFTER the baby was born, everything changed. Every time Hilary left the house, she was photographed incessantly doing mundane things with or without her baby, with or without her fiancée. No complaints. Did she decide she LIKES being famous? There are more paparazzi photos of Hilary available to journalists every day than ANY other celebrity. Too many. Did she HIRE or make some kind of deal with a paparazzi to follow her every minute of every day? Suddenly her pics are a glut on the market…

Leonardo DiCaprio Paparazzi

WE DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR LEONARDO DICAPRIO

Leonardo DiCaprio has always been at war with the paparazzi. He doesn’t like them, and they don’t like him. Leo admits that he can’t STAND the idea of these guys making money by selling images of HIM. He tells them to get REAL JOBS. (Keep in mind, paparazzi work really long hours and most of them are NOT getting rich.) Granted, Leo IS a popular celebrity, but Jennifer Aniston has been tormented FAR more than he has, and she has always remained polite and doesn’t begrudge paparazzi selling her photos. Wake up Leo! Be grateful that your photos are still in demand!

Dermatologist Kourtney Kardashian Paparazzi

OCCUPATIONAL HAZARD FOR KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN

A trip to and from the dermatologist can be awkward for anyone – especially if the doctor specializes in cosmetic skin treatments. The patient has to arrive without makeup – preferably with numbing cream on their skin. Of course when they leave, their skin is all flared up in one way or another and definitely not photogenic. That’s why Kourtney Kardashian is wearing a jacket on her head- being famous can be a nuisance at times…

Chrissy Teigen John Legend Luna Legend Paparazzi

LUNA LEGEND HAS A MIND OF HER OWN

Luna Legend, 2, seen here with her mom Chrissy Teigen, is gradually learning what it’s like to have famous parents. Chrissy took Luna shopping to a fancy children’s store in Beverly Hills called English Rabbit. They carry European designer labels for kids like Gucci and Stella McCartney. Luna loves shopping and she got a balloon, but she’s still annoyed with intrusive paparazzi and makes faces at them. Model Chrissy always has fun with the press and eagerly participates on social media, so it’s just a matter of time before Luna will be getting a kick out of the attention…

Meghan Markle Mother Paparazzi

MEGHAN MARKLE’S MOM IS NOT COMING OUT OF THE HOUSE – YET

Meghan Markle’s mom Doria Ragland, 61, lives in a very accessible house in Los Angeles (above) and since her daughter got engaged to Prince Harry she’s been bombarded by reporters and paparazzi. Doria is cute and looks very young – she has dreadlocks and a nose ring – she’s often mistaken for a friend of Meghan rather than her mother. She and Meghan’s father, Thomas Markle, divorced when Meghan was six. Doria is quite accomplished – she has a Master’s degree in social work from USC and she runs marathons and teaches yoga classes. A typical California gal! Doria IS cautious about talking to the press clamoring outside her house – Buckingham Palace has arranged for security and warned press to leave her alone.

Hair! Paparazzi Rob Pattinson

ROBERT PATTINSON BETTER NOT LOSE HIS HAIR

Why? It’s his most redeeming feature. That gorgeous mane of hair enthralled countless fans for the four years of the Twilight series. But Robert Pattinson found out he doesn’t LIKE being popular. He loathed the press and paparazzi who documented his every move, and found himself hiding in car trunks and wearing disguises -all the while feeling terribly sorry for himself. To put it mildly, he didn’t enjoy his fame. Other young actors would have killed for Pattinson’s notoriety, but Rob hated every minute. Since Twilight he’s done a lot of unmemorable films and made himself less interesting to the press. We predict his career will last as long as that HAIR lasts, without an attitude change.

Malia Obama Paparazzi

MALIA OBAMA: THE RELUCTANT CELEBUTANTE

Malia Obama, 18, probably never expected to become an “it girl” when she signed up to intern at The Weinstein Co in New York, but despite her attempts to keep a low profile, she just can’t. Paparazzi wait for her to come and go from work and fashion bloggers chat about her street wear. At a recent Weinstein event, The Hollywood Reporter noted that her name was included in the list of celebrities attending. Like it or not, she is being noticed big time – and it’s especially surprising because she makes it a point to avoid social media!

Cher Paparazzi

SINCE WHEN DOES CHER NOT WANT TO BE NOTICED?

Cher made a big deal out of being escorted out of the back door at Craig’s restaurant to avoid the waiting paparazzi. And it makes no sense. If she didn’t want to be seen, why would Cher dine at the most heavily paparazzi-ed eatery in Hollywood? (Certainly not for the food!) Many famous faces are always there, and were that same night, and they leave through the front door! It makes you wonder if she has a stalker or something…

Kendall Jenner Paparazzi

KENDALL JENNER: EVERY JOB HAS PROS AND CONS

This photo humorously illustrates the price of fame. Kendall Jenner was walking down the street in New York minding her own business, when she heard someone rush up behind her. Startled, she turned to see what was happening and a paparazzo literally shoved her out of his way as he ran past her. Dazed, she regained her balance and resumed her walk only to see that the guy had leaped around in front of her, and he was snapping pix from a better angle.

Amal Alamuddin George Clooney Paparazzi

AMAL CLOONEY HAS THE RIGHT ATTITUDE

Amal Clooney is probably the only lawyer in the world who is followed relentlessly by paparazzi. It’s not due to her considerable accomplishments, but to her striking looks and famous husband. At least she always has a pleasant look on her face and doesn’t seem disturbed by the attention. We like that.
