It was a full circle moment to meet the original influencer, Paris Hilton! I can’t believe I’ve been thinking about Paris Hilton for 20 years and we finally met. That means she has influenced 2/3 of my life.

It’s amazing how much value you can get from a free app like Clubhouse. In the last month, I’ve listened to Diane von Furstenberg, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian’s best friend Allison Statter while sitting in my bedroom. If those were in-person events, none of them would be in Toronto and they would cost at least $50 to attend, plus airfare and accommodations for me. That’s huge savings! I would totally consider a paid subscription someday.
After Entourage star Adrian Grenier met Austin Visschedyk, he convinced the teenage paparazzo to film a documentary with him about celebrity culture. Watching Teenage Paparazzo (2010) allows you to explore the parasocial relationships between celebrities and fans, which refers to fans’ disillusion that they know celebrities like they know their friends when really there is a one-way relationship. Without it, there would be less demand for celebrity gossip and photos.
The movie comprehensively captures the dynamic between celebrities and fans, as well as between celebrities and the paparazzi. To achieve this, Adrian interviewed academics and authors as well as well-established paparazzi and celebrities like Lindsay Lohan and Eva Longoria. But most of the movie focuses on Austin, a self-assured teenager who invests in the best camera equipment to capture celebrities.
