This month's Vanity Fair has been on news stands for a few weeks; I just got around to reading the "Madonnarama!" cover story - online << editors take note. In the four page story she talks about.. The paparazzi monster.. TMZ? “I haven’t been to Los Angeles in quite a while, and I don’t watch television here or in England, and I was told there’s now a television show where the paparazzi are the stars of the show - is that true? That they film each other doing paparazzi jobs?.. They get this close, and don’t care how much they scare your children.. Being famous has changed a lot, there’s so many outlets, between magazines, TV shows, and the Internet, for people to stalk and follow you. We created the monster.” more..
