I heard that many celebs call the pap to let them know they'll be a certain place. It does become very invasive (when you don't want them), but it's the price you pay for being famous.

Exception is the person who checked out Brooke's poor mother out of the institution. THAT crossed the line.

I heard (through eonline) that the rule re: children is that the celeb sets the rules. If they allow the baby/child to be photographed once (especially for money) then it's considered open season but if they say no always then that is usually respected. There are some fairly big-wig celebs whose kids I have never seen so it is possible but I don't know for sure.

Twiggy.. wasn't that something? The reporter is saying there is a long-term friendship and the outing had nothing to do with doing a story but even if that's true... how dare the home allow a non-family member to take a woman with dementia out? All I have heard from Brooke is that she is considering her options, she also immediately removed her mother from that home.

What Jimmer said.

I think people who haven't purposely sought the spotlight have an argument against the paps. For example, children who were born to famous parents but never sought the spotlight themselves. Victims of famous/infamous crimes that have captured the public interest. The like.

You can try to legislate all the moral issues you want, but you cannot legislate people to exercise morality. You are either moral or immoral based upon your own or the public's point of view. If you have put yourself out their to be viewed, you are going to be photographed whether you like the picture or not. Legislation is not going to protect you from having photos taken of you while you are in a wheelchair.

People who have sought the spotlight and used it for their own profit don't get to decide when the spotlight gets turned off. They have decided to encourage the public to be interested in them and what happens to them/what they do.

Terri Shields is probably in another category altogether, where her acquiescence to fame is overshadowed by her apparent incompentence. She can no longer agree (or disagree for that matter) to being in out in public for viewing. Under those circumstances, I believe that even though she courted the spotlight in the past, her privacy at this point should be assured. If Brooke is to be believed, she is under a guardianship and could not consent to being removed from her home environment by a non-approved stranger. So she didn't consent to a public viewing under any definition of the subject. At best, it would be considered in the vein of a statutory rape - even if the underage person consented willingly to sex, it is still a crime. She is unable to consent.

IMHO.

That makes sense, GAL.

And seriously, I agree with enforcing existing laws and looking into ways to extend those laws when invasion uses technology to get around the intent of the existing laws.. like using long lenses, helicopters and so on to see into places that were considered private.

And naively I guess I DO expect people to be decent, regardless of the law and their "rights".

Hope she takes care of herself and that new kidney... it does require lots of work, but look at the payoff! Glad she got it.

It's a girl for Chad Lowe and his girlfriend, producer Kim Painter, the actor's rep confirms to PEOPLE.

Daughter Mabel Painter Lowe made her debut on Saturday in Los Angeles. "Everybody is healthy and happy," says the rep.

The couple announced the pregnancy in January, with Lowe explaining that Painter revealed the baby news to him with a grin. "She woke up with a very big smile on her face and I knew exactly what that meant," the Emmy-winning actor, 41, told Access Hollywood.

Lowe and Painter began dating in January 2007. Mabel is the first child for the couple.

Congrats to Lowe! I always felt a bit bad for him when Swank left him. Glad he's found happiness and has a new baby.

This was on the news this morning, but to be honest with you, I thought I was hallucinating.

Since the law won't let Blago be on that reality show, his wife is taking his place.

Patti Blagojevich, wife of ex-governor Rod, to appear on 'I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here'

Patti Blag has a mouth going away, but Janice Dickinson can blow her doors off and file her nails at the same time. Janice for the win.

Really, how pathetic.

I saw Blag wife on the Today show this morning. She's scary. I think it would have cracked her face to smile.
I'm for Sunjaya or snarky Stephen Baldwin on the new show.

That Susan Boyle sensation lady singer from Britain's Got Talent will be competing in the second round of the show in an hour or so (it's already evening over there). So I think the youtubes should be up really soon!

(definitely not as great as her first appearance)
