    Like all my ideas lately, it's probably been done before, but...oh well...

    I was at a bookstore today and got this idea about how entertaining a magazine or blog would be about the lives of paparazzi. Instead of celebrities getting followed around and having their lives ripped open & apart, there would be a group of people following around prominent paparazzi members and basically writing a tabloid style magazine/blog about their lives. Follow them to the grocery store, catch them in affairs, etc. etc.

    I have no idea how it would work as far as revenue goes, but it sure as hell would entertain me. Basically a reality magazine, turning the tables on those who destroy the lives of celebrities. You can bet your ass you'd have a helluva lot of backing in Hollywood :)

    Hooray or nay? I think it'd be a crack up.

    I think we're twins man.

    I hate the paparazzi with a passion. About 3 years ago I decided that at some point when I had the money, I would create a movie and website that flipped Hollywood, where we expose all the details, nasty photos, etc... of paparazzi, those hosts on inside edition and all those expose shows. Follow them to the grocery store, have my paparazzi sit outside of the house of THE paparazzi. Pretty much what just came to you today.

    Freaky. And yes, it's a great idea that you and I had. lol

    Well it didn't come to me yesterday, I had the idea a loooooong time ago but forgot about it until I picked up book at Hastings yesterday. I thought to myself "shit I need to remember this time!" so I put a reminder in my phone to alert me to post it on YGG.

    I have a napkin from 1997 if you want to see it. LOL just kidding.

    I really think it's a great angle and I think the funds would be o-plenty because you're on the side of the rich and famous. There'd be no problem securing funding for startup, don't you agree?

    Funding wouldn't be an issue. The only issue I see is personal safety. You're pretty much asking for trouble for the rest of your life when you get in the face of the paparazzi.

    That's ok, you're pretty much asking for trouble when you become rich too and we all seem to have a bead on that.
