Paps: The Fans Fight Back

Our friends & affiliates over at Thinking of Rob put together this very wonderful campaign against the paps. It’s really pathetic the lengths the paparazzi will go to get a photo of Rob. It’s an absolute invasion of his privacy…he’s only human and so is the rest of the cast of Twilight!

So, here’s what ToR had to say:

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 12 hours we were able to get 210+ 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.

I end this with a quote from the wonderful Chris Weitz (New Moon director) from this interview:

“There is a huge difference between the attention of the paparazzi and the attention of the fans. The fans have been lovely. The paparazzi in my opinion are a very low form of primate.”

Oh and if you have any contribution you want to make, send them over to thinkingofrob(at)hotmail(dot)com!
