Call me Mr Sensitive.

American showbiz photographers – Dontayajustluvem?

Always at the cutting edge of innnovation and new ideas. Not content whistling or shouting ‘Over Ere Luv’ to gain their subjects attention, one forward thinking snapper has taken to offering health advice to celebs that pass by his viewfinder according to Skynews

On seeing Nicole Ritchie, star of MTVs ‘The Simple Life’, whom media pundits speculate may be suffering from anorexia our man opted for a unique approach to gain her attention by shouting “Nicole, you look disgusting. Gain some fucking weight!”

According to reports this sensitive approach worked and he was soon rewarded by said celebs attention and was able to take as many pics as his editor could stomach.

Nicole, for her part walked up to the photographer and told him, “What if I really had anorexia? What if I had a disease? How would you feel about saying such horrible things?”

The paps response is unreported but sources say that he slunk away muttering something about having to be back in his box before sunrise.
