The New York Times recently reported on the phenomenon of Los Angeles paparazzi inventing their own photo ops by crashing their cars into those of their celebrity targets.
“Ms. [Cameron] Diaz recalled walking in the street with Mr. [Justin] Timberlake and a friend and his dog about two years ago, when a photographer in a Toyota 4Runner roared up from behind them, knocking the friend to the ground, then shot pictures of her and Mr. Timberlake coming to the friend’s aid. "We’re so used to not having any rights, we didn’t think we should call 911," she said. Photographs of the incident wound up in the next US Weekly with a caption saying, "Cameron and Justin race to help a friend" after the friend’s dog was nearly hit by a car.”
