I don't see many repeated harrassers of male celebrities unless they are with a female like Angelina and Brad.

So what is it about rich famous women that the press become stalkers and never leave them alone? Is it misogyny? Women are percieved as easy targets?

Is it because the public wants to see more women being followed than men?

I've read somewhere that pictures of women sell better than men. That's why there's always a cover picture of a woman in both men's and women's magazines.

I see the gossip magazine industry as a worldwide version of classic female gossip and I think women naturally gossip about other women more than men. As a result, the paparrazzi perfers women because gossip magazines really are targetted at women.

y hallo thar steretypical bitch

I can't speak with regards to them all, but Britney and Winehouse actively seek publicity and are in no way "harrassed". The real A-listers in Hollywood have as much privacy as they want.

Diablo is right
Pete Doherty is the male exception that proves the rule.

Easy there, Kathleen Hanna. Before you go re-capitulating some tired "male gaze" or "media as male stalker" cliche, might I remind you that woman are the prime consumers of gossipy celebrity shit. Your average female identifies more readily with Lindsay Lohan than Owen Wilson. Consequently the magazines are going to cover stories about the lame-o chicks you all seem to identify with/worship/enjoy-tearing-apart.

Most guys (homosexuals and the british excluded) don`t give a fuck about celebrities, unless they are athletes.

You are not worthy of a Britney Av

no you aren't. youre too dumb you NATzi.

coz men b yuck n ladies b not yuck

I'd prefer to see more evidence of men going out without underpants on, so long as it isn't Chris Crocker.

I escaped somehow. Let's go

actualy [sic] I have quite a blessed life if I'm honest. I have many people to love, hate few and have few money problem's [sic].... What more does a person need? Oh yeah and I have some kind of humbleness unlike you of course ^_^ ~ CarefulCarpenter

Well, females like Brad just ask for that shit. And btw when did Angie stop being male?

As long as you approach the issue like Sean Penn, yes.

The public wants to read about lost little girls, waifs on downward spirals who need someone to guide them. Men who drink and do drugs are cool modern-day James Deans.

the pictures of ladies sell for more because ladies read gossip and like to rip those bitches to shreds

A male celeb is a lot more likely to clock someone if they're pissed. A female is more likely to become frightened and not know how to react. I'm pretty sure the paparazzi know that.
