"OBSESSED WITH TWILIGHT? THINK
YOU'RE TOO OLD FOR THIS? YOU'VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!"
Seeing that I am about to turn 27 next month (is that even possible??) and most people who I DO let in on my Twi-fandom secret look at me funny and say "aren't you a little old for that?" ...well, let's just say I feel pretty welcome to Twitarded and I think I've found "my peeps" in Jenny Jerkface and Snarkier Than You. Love you gals!! :)

ANYWAY (I told you I'd ramble a lot here, hopefully I'll
remedy that after a few more blog posts under my preverbal belt)....my point is
that this afternoon on Twitarded,
Snarkier Than You posted a blog entitled Twidom To The
Paparazzi: Leave Robert Pattinson Alone! I've always been an
avid hater of 'paps,' especially to My Beloved (Rob) and I avoid all pap shots
of ANY celebrity, let alone pap shots of Rob. So conversely I had no clue why
there was a renewed hatred, nor did I know of this new campaign against the
paps. (Side note: I previously became a member of the "Respect Me!"
campaign against paps and stalking fans for Rob back when he was filming
'Remember Me' in NYC and I'm also a member of Project F.L.A.N.S. (Fangirl
Leaders Against Needless Stalking.))
So I found out about these latest
"photographs." I'm using quotes around "photographs"
because these disgusting paps don't have any right taking these fucking
"photos" or calling themselves fucking "photographers."
They are not. They are "paps"--and, yes, I am comparing these
parasites to the annual medical procedure that all us women must endure... we
lay down, feet in stirrups and basically get probed and prodded up our snatches.
That's how paps make me--and I'll venture to say all of us fangirls--
feel.
No, I did not look at these "photos" nor do I
ever want to. I would only be perpetuating the disgusting machine that drives
paps to these ridiculous levels. I did read of a description of the
"photos" over at the blog Sanity Not Included (a
favorite blog of mine, check Vanessa's blog out on my side bar to the right).
"The paps cornered him up against a fucking WALL,
he had his hat purposely shielding his eyes/face, his friends (Brit Pack
members Marcus Foster and Bobby Long) trying to clear a path to just walk to
the goddamn taxi, and still the assholes would not relent."
Completely disgusting.
So Snarkier Than You's post on Twitarded directed me to Thinking of Rob where I could find
the campaign headquarters, as it were. Thinking of Rob is letting
anyone and everyone submit their own photos of their best "FUCK YOU
PAPS" pose to show the world (and Rob) that his fans are completely
against the paps invading his personal privacy.
(The kitty shot is an old photo I snapped a couple years
back of my kitty Cali who just happened to put her paws up over her face when I
was taking her photo. I think it fits this campaign PERFECTLY.)
I'd rather see HappyRob in professional photoshoots and
movie promotional shots than UnhappyandDisrespectedRob in disgusting pap shots.
I can live a happy, fulfilling life if I never have to see any pap shots of
Rob. I can totally live with HappyRob in photos that he approves of and WANTS
to share with his fans. If he can live with that, I can live with that. And so
can you.
So take a minute. Snap a shot of yourself blocking your
face just like Rob had to do Friday night. Email your photo
to ThinkingOfRob@hotmail.com with your twitter account. Let's
join together and show the paps, Hollywood and Rob that he has fans
out there who will not put up with this shit and that we don't support this
ridiculous and disgusting pap behavior, EVER.

Hey Sadie,
ReplyDeleteI followed you over from Rob Overload. I'm just addicted to that site...so irreverent and just fun.
But about these pap pics. What does it say about me that I really, really want to look at them? I hate that Rob doesn't have any privacy or personal freedoms. But at the same time, I was all like so happy to know he was still in the States and that there was photographic evidence as proof.
By the way, Rob could corner me up against a
wall any time, any place, any position.
Hi migirl1! Thanks for checking out my wee, little blog. :)
ReplyDeleteTo be honest with you, the teeny, tiniest part of me would like to peek at the pap photos in question. But I have a feeling the moment I do I'll feel totally wrong and unhappy with myself for seeking them out. I do like that we know that he's in the States, and out having fun with his Brit Bros. :)
Yes, I agree... if the tables were flipped and ROB was the one cornering people up against the wall... well, I think there'd be a huge queue of girls (and some guy Rob fans) waiting for their turn with Rob ;)
