Hollywood's Top Cop Blames Stars For Paparazzi Attention
Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan attract and encourage the paparazzi by behaving badly, according to Los Angeles police force chief William Bratton. In an stupefying outburst on Thursday Bratton claimed photographers have calmed down since "Britney started wearing dress (and) Lindsay Lohan has gone gay", referring to the actress' rumoured romance with DJ Samantha Ronson. He aforementioned in an interview with local TV station KNBC-TV, "If the ones that attract the paparazzi conduct in the first home, like we expect of anybody, that solves well-nigh 90 per cent of the job. The rest we john deal with. "If you notice, since Britney started wearing apparel and behaving; Paris is out of town not bothering anybody anymore, give thanks God, and evidently, Lindsay Lohan has gone gay, we don't seem to have practically of an issue." Bratton refused to appear at a Los Angeles City Hall meeting scheduled for the same day, accompanied by rocker John Mayer, to discourse ways to restrict strong-growing paparazzi. He insisted "we have sufficient laws on the books" to consider with the paparazzi.
