Paparazzi

Paparazzi are photographers who specialize in capturing candid images of celebrities, often without their permission. They typically operate from a distance or in public spaces, aiming to photograph stars in everyday moments or at public events. Their work is driven by the demand for sensational or exclusive photos used in media, entertainment, and gossip outlets. While their photography can provide a glimpse into celebrities' lives, it raises privacy concerns and ethical questions about respecting personal boundaries. The term "paparazzi" originated from a fictional character in Federico Fellini's film "La Dolce Vita," and has since become associated with aggressive or intrusive paparour photography.
