Paps: The Fans Fight Back “He Doesn’t Want This, Neither Do We”

We woke up this morning to a very unpleasant surprise. The obtrusive pap pics of Rob from last were the straw that broke the camel's back for a lot of us. We are thrilled to join up with Thinking of Rob to promote a fan movement saying enough is enough. And to be honest, we'd had enough of this a long time ago.

We are proud to be a paparazzi free site. We love Rob, and the rest of the cast just as much as the next person, but no one should be put through this kind of stalking. A celebrity owes us exactly what we pay them for.

Just in case you're confused, that means they owe us their time on the screen, the stage, the court, the field, etc. When they are "off the clock" they owe us NOTHING.

I have yet to grasp why the fact that someone is well known means that they should have no privacy. If someone treated your average citizen the way that celebrities are treated, they would be considered stalkers and peeping toms.

Due to recent paps pics of Rob that came out today and inva­sive ones taken before (chas­ing Rob while he’s dri­ving, tak­ing pic­tures of him from rooftops), the fans are stand­ing up and fight­ing back. We want the paps to know that we don’t want to see pics like these, so stop tak­ing them. Stop invad­ing his pri­vate life. Enough is enough. Because no per­son deserves this, celebrity our not. There are lim­its and you have gone too far. He doesn’t want this, nei­ther do we!

Here’s our way of fight­ing back, in less than 24 hours we were able to get 500+ pics of fans pos­ing with their arms over their face to show their protest. This is our way of say­ing leave him alone. We’re hop­ing this mes­sage gets across to the paps. Fans from all over the world sent in pics and trans­lated quotes.

Check out all the great fans and other sites working together to spread the message! Thanks again to ToR for starting this campaign.

***NOTE*** Apparently there is some misunderstanding here. We were never intending for anyone to believe those are pictures of Rob. And yes, those are my "short, fat, ugly fingers" that bring this blog to you, along with Kerry who is pictured at the top. I encourage you to go to the Thinking of Rob post and read all about the campaign.
We agree that the best way to fight the paparazzi craziness is to stop posting their vids and pics. That policy has been in effect here at Eyes of Amber for quite some time. We appreciate your support.
If you would like to contribute to the campaign, you may still send your pics in to ToR at thinkingofrob@hotmail.com.
