Bull****. Is this a strawman? My first one? People seeking a name on a piece of paper as proof they met someone has nothing whatever to do with people who are paid to get compromising pictures of celebrities to sell their ****ty papers. You think people ROB autographs? If you can't get it you can't get it. Nobody forces anyone and nobody (normally) makes a profit out of it. Nothing even remotely in the same universe, pal.
Sure, it's all down to the cult of celebrity and personality worship, but if you're going to tar everyone in that sphere with the same brush you're gonna need one ****ing wide brush.

Jesus Christ, you simply can not entertain notions you aren't already entertaining. You're like a less incessant version of Chula. The paparazzi are simply your surrogates who do what you aren't willing to do yourself to violate a celebrity's privacy. Demanding autographs and cellphone pics is the less invasive end of the spectrum, but it's still entitled. Fine if the artist is open to taking pics with fans, but if they're not then that's their business.
