Denise Richards has now added her name to the long list of celebrities who want to have their lives filmed daily and show how they go through all the same trials & tribulations as everyone else.
I must say, that I am one of the people who believe that celebrities are dogged by photographer's and paparazzi more than they should be. I know they are celebrities and in being such, have given up part of their private lives. I agree that is part of the price you pay. If you show up at an public event(Movie Premiere,Play Premiere,Charity Event,Etc.) you should expect photographer's and fans to film you, take your picture, ask for an autograph. This should be expected and part of the job.
However, if you're famous and going to the doctor's office, or at a funeral , or maybe out with your family, the paparazzi should have some minute sense of decency and allow you to have some sort of "normal" life. But decency is not really something to expect from these sort of vultures. It is not the same as it was years and years ago. There are more and more photographers stalking these celebrities and it certainly has gotten out of hand. It would be nice if a couple having a baby was given the peace to have some alone time, unless they're selling the pictures for a huge sum of money which seems to be the trend nowadays.
Having said this, I am amazed that Denise Richard's will have her daily life, along with her children, filmed and then is shocked when photographers start taking pictures. Here's an idea, if you don't want to be photographed doing private things, like sunbathing or going to the tattoo parlor, try not hiring a film crew to draw attention to yourself. The reality is, the producers of this show probably hired the 2 photographers who were photographing her and her friends in Hawaii to follow them and make it seem like anyone cares about her vacation. As my wife said, "I'd love to know where you could see these pictures, I've never seen pictures of her anywhere".
Luckily I've seen only 1 or 2 episodes of this show, and I keep watching out of frustration. But watching the exciting episode where Denise and her friends got to get away from the oh so mundane life of spending time with their children and got to cut loose like they were "in high school", was just enough to make me never watch again. However, never say never.
As I said, it's hard to have any sympathy for someone who is so bothered that their daily activities are being filmed by someone other than the people she is working with to film her daily activities.
As the title says, it's complicated. Actually it's not.
