How might your relationship be affected if it was playing out in front of the paparazzi?

I think it would be very difficult for me to be real. If I was being followed around, I would always want a smile on my face even if I was really angry at my SO. There would always be an element of acting involved and then fear of being found out as a fake. This could also have to do with my own insecurities and lack of confidence. I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t care what others think about them-even if I don’t even know them!

That would be horrible! I am very emotional so I am sure I would be misrepresented most of the time!

The paparazzi would have been very bored!

A great distraction. Everything you do is center stage and any missteps are exacerbated.

I agree with Angelaw--there are many A listers who are not followed around and hounded. I think the ones who are like and want the attention. Doubt that I would stay in the relationship for long--my private life is my private life.

I like to be behind the camera, not in front of it! I would not be comfortable being followed, photographed, questioned. Totally would NOT want the attention. Guess that means I would not seek a relationship where paparazzi would be part of being together. However, I have also learned to never, ever, say never.

I have had a fair amount of experience dealing with the media when litigating high profile cases, and can't count the number of times I found myself reduced ta sound bite on the evening news or a one-sentence quote in a newspaper article that did not accurately convey my thoughts or the importance of the issue. It was extremely frustrating. So . . . no thank you, I would not want to be followed by paparazzi and find myself speculated and gossiped about on TMZ.
