18 Stars Who Have Major Beef With the Paparazzi Because All Snapshots Aren't Created Equal

Diaz knew exactly how to shut down the paparazzi — take away their cameras!

In 2008 Miller swung her handbag at an aggressive photographer attempting to snap a photo of her while she was walking through the airport.

Bell isn’t about getting aggressive with the paparazzi — she’d rather settle her beef with the photographers via social action. Bell’s platform has always been for photographers to stop taking photos of minors (like celebrity children) without their consent, and, so far, it’s a battle she’s winning, with numerous sites and magazines promising that they won’t run photos of celebrity children. The Veronica Mars star’s work even helped pass an anti-paparazzi bill in the state of California.

In 2006 Harrelson allegedly choked out a paparazzo after the photographer refused to stop taking pictures of him and his friends outside a night club.

Baldwin has been open about his distaste for “public life” and says he prefers traveling in Los Angeles to New York because he can hide in his car from photographers.
