The popular Paparazzi GIFs everyone's sharing

Lady Shutterbug had doubt Spent hours that coulda been ‘bout an environ pro-activist devout Spotting celebrities, scoping it out Not keeping abreast trendy starlets Kylie, Mavee, Cardi B, or Scarlet Yet little does she regret, out of the loop during covid19 Paparazzi never meant anything Albeit a lucrative livelihood and scene Standing by on Friday night Perchance a celebrity sight Star gazing she’d eagerly mull over Adeptly cunning at recognition, Spotting celebs with innate intuition Beverly Hills Walk of Fame premier thrills N’er will she stalk, push, shove, or duck Pose, get the snapshot with some luck Easily star-struck a fan of many She never imagined chasing celebs aplenty Or miss the money shot! Warranting ‘tis’nt for her In this “Designer Dupe” culture Bougi's swarm like vultures How would she know if a star strutted by “Popface” got it covered AI A new project Snap Click, click, click flashes go off Shutter speeds all she needs Plastic perfection abounds follow ‘em around? Lady Shutterbug won’t chase down Stands by her hometown Seeks adventure without fear Grins from ear to ear Cozy in her SUV Yeah, lowkey Adeptly cunning at recognition Spots them with her intuition Pop up prominent restaurant Lavish L.A. luxurious Rennaissant Reborn rich ‘lish fancy Spacious buoyancy Exotic cocktail lounge, sunken gardenet, check Open patio lit at sunset, check Mediterranean & Steak buffet, check Valet parking, check, check, check All the markings of a high-end hot-spot Edgy crowd smoking pot Plastic perfection abounds A bourgeois turnaround What Lady Shutterbug mistook for stars were look-a-likes inside high-end bars Designer imitations, clothes, shoes, bags and cosmetics As cheaper alternative tricks All resembling famous celebs, the atmosphere’s feelin good A lil tipsy in the hood All engaging in vocal and visual vibrancy showing off youthful dynamisim, unencumbered joy And so Lady Shutterbug overtly observes It’s what she prefers She’s reassured with or without a genuine star to capture, it’s time out A musing gaze, a sweet sigh Click, click, click, flash goes off She remains stealthily nigh

Anaya, it's getting tougher and tougher to decipher reality from a fake copy. I suppose there's a lot to just observe and think about in places celebs haunt. I wonder where this all ends? Good to know you have sensibility!! It's hard to keep things in perspective as you suggest, but keeping low key in certain situations isn't a bad thing. There certainly is money involved in pictures. You've covered a lot of ground!

Great flow to your poem.. You described it very well, how many a celebrity live their life and always have to be a certain way.. some love it, but I think after a while many get fed p with it all..

Even Taylor Swift's dad Papa Swift was recently sued for protecting his daughter. This is about the look-a like's, there is an app called Popface and its purpose, recognition. Dupe is where you can buy knock offs legally. Thank you for reading and reviewing, I appreciate it Silent One.
