go home and try to have a normal life with their friends and families. And what is wrong with that? When we finish our jobs do we want the customers coming home after us, begging us to let them into our private lives? Of course not. What's more, we would think they were insane, as I would imagine a lot of celebrities think about the general public's lust for all things celebrity. These people are just people. They do everything we do; the only difference is they have more money than us. That's it.
These people do deserve a level of privacy. They deserve as much privacy as any of us do in my view. Having said that, I'm well aware that some celebrities, from the top and bottom end of the scale, court publicity, and these people know what they are getting themselves into. If they want to be photographed falling out of nightclubs, that's their own choice. The line is drawn when you have paparazzi going through famous people's rubbish bins, following them when they go to the park for a jog, and more seriously, taking pictures of their children, who are completely innocent and have no desire to have light bulbs flashing in their faces 24/7.
Basically, everyone deserves privacy, the richest man in the world and the homeless guy in the street. It is a basic human right.
