hi daisie, hope you’re well! i’ve been reading some of your posts about how pap walks are done and i’ve a question. i understand that you say most pap walks we see the photographers have been called/hired by the artist or the artist’s pr team. so following that train of thought, are all paparazzi encounters planned and intentional in some way? but what about those infamous instances where they ambush and practically pounce on people, like it used to happen with justin bieber, britney, princess diana and numerous other artists over the years? bc that’s like the first thing that comes to mind at least for me when i think about paparazzi, yk what i mean? sorry if this is a stupid question!
Hi dear,
Not stupid! So I think what most people don't get is that pap culture has changed a LOT with the growth of social media. You're right that the "ambush" pap pic used to be a thing. It was part them getting tipped off about celeb's whereabouts (by people, hotels, or even the celeb's agents, etc), or them knowing celeb hotspots or addresses and just hanging out there until the celebs showed up. They also used to follow celebs around - literally stalk them. This is how H got the protection order against certain paps in London.
And to clarify this London protection order against paps: it's not that he can't get papped in London. The order prevents paps from being within a certain radius of his houses, camping out or waiting for him, or following/chasing him. This happened bc when he was in 1D and got his house, 1D leaked his address to the press, so paps would literally just sit outside his house then chase him around in their cars. They did that basically 24/7 until H was granted the protection order. But he can still get papped in London and at events there, etc.
Ok, going back to how pap culture has changed. So with the growth of social media, the access to celebs changed. The public doesn't have to wait for pap pics bc the celebs themselves are/were posting their whereabouts and their own pics on IG etc. Not to mention that everyone else has a phone with a camera, so fans getting pics of the celebs and posting them also increased the access. I'm not sure how this has changed, but the price paps used to get for pics of certain A list celebs used to be HUGE. If they got pics of Bieber (for example), they'd get like 50K for it depending on what it was. I know that the price has gone down now.
So because of this change, it has become increasingly more common for paps to work for agencies that the celeb's team/agents can call to schedule the pics. This makes it easier for everybody. The paps have more security and stability about the jobs they're doing and where they're going. And the celebs get to control their narratives and what gets released more easily. It's also safer for everyone involved because there is less stalking, trespassing, chasing or harassment.
Many celebs work with specific paps over and over. Some even get their "candid" pap pics photoshopped, sent to them for approval, then sold to the press (cough Kardashians cough).
Like everything in the industry, paps make connections with certain agencies or celebs or celeb's teams, so that they know that if they need their client to get papped, the celeb's team will call that pap, or that pap's agency and request them. It's all about connections.
So while there are still instances where celebs do get "caught" by the paps who are hanging out by hot spots, the vast majority are called and scheduled. This is especially true if they're pictured in a random location, or private area (Jeff's wedding/a yacht etc).
Here's Heidi Montag saying that she calls the paparazzi to get her pictures. #fame:

Since you seemed to like the “all fact, no theory” post about L’s faith in the future. Here another.
On March 8th 2025, Harry was pictured wearing a watch for the first time since 2016.
Tumblr media
He was on his way to the Sabrina Carpenter concert at the O2 in London. Where he sat very close to Zara McDermott.
Tumblr media
The watch made its paparazzi debut in April 2025.
Tumblr media
And caught the attention of GQ - who confirmed a very important piece of information.
Tumblr media
The watch is called a Tank Louis Cartier.
(Note that 2010 to 2025 is 15 years)

Hello Gina, I remember back when I wasn’t in the fandom in 2022, I saw a clip from an interview with Harry and Chris Pine where Harry says something like “the best thing about this movie is that it feels like a movie” (or something like that). I haven’t seen much more from the dwd promo, but I wanted to ask if Harry had that same attitude throughout the whole round of promo. Because when you compare it with how he was during MP promo, his answers were much more thoughtful. Do you think it was a kind of protest, like saying "I don't agree with this circus"?
Also, is it true he ignored Ow during the Venice premiere?
He completely ignored her. You can look through my VENICE FILM FESTIVAL tag and see for yourself.
As for his interviews surrounding the film, I think he was in an extremely difficult position.
• The movie was terrible. So trying to sell it means trying to find whatever good points you can find, and doing a lot of lying. If the best thing he can find to say about it is that it feels like a movie is sad (also, clearly his point wasn’t articulated well, but it’s not that hard to ask him to explain what he means. So that was just irritating).
• Filming the movie was not a great experience (especially with his only comparison at the time being directed by Christopher Nolan).
• He’s contractually obligated to promote the film.
• His team has their greedy fingers in the pie so they’re likely pressuring him to promote heavily.
• The whole explosive reveal of the information from Shia happened just before the premiere.
• He was likely already furious about how the PR stunt with her was going, and then that was added on top (it made it abundantly clear that Olivia was manipulating everyone).
• Throw in that he was in the middle of an enormous tour and flew to Venice from NY in between shows, did the couple of days of promo/events there and then flew back to NY to perform again. He was probably exhausted.
Having said all of that, I do think his behavior during The Venice Film Festival was as much of a push back as he could manage. Unfortunately, what I think many people took away from it was that he wasn’t very professional and that he was a shitty boyfriend 🙄
And yes, he couldn’t have been more different during the promo for My Policeman. He was invested, eloquent, and proud to be there. That film deserved so much better.
These additional tags might be interesting for you

Friends, I don't care about Louis and his fake girlfriend, Harry and his fake/imaginary girlfriend, how many Italian stalkers say they know for sure, or how many photos Oli takes.
I just want new music.
I cannot spend hours every day holding people's hands to get them through yet another PR season. If H/L have PR relationships, they have them. They're not real girlfriends because neither one of them is interested in women, no matter how much you might want to believe that they are.
Whether H/L are together or not, their "girlfriends" will still always be PR girlfriends and not real relationships.
Please consider how silly all of this is. In the last month, Louis has been linked to Krystle, Michael, Kara, and Alycia.
During that same month, Harry has been linked to Alessandro, Brad, a random woman on the street in Berlin, two women in Berlin at Berghain, an imaginary person he was buying condoms and lube for on the street in Berlin, dating an Italian hotel receptionist, dating a pregnant woman in a pink dress in Florence, and getting back together with Taylor Russell.
Aren't you all exhausted? Just let this shit play out without running around like headless chickens wanting to get the scoop before it hits the tabloids. Seriously. Why do you care so much?

Hey hey, as a librarian, can I just say don’t pace yourself at the library. I get a lot of customers saying “oh I shouldn’t get too many books out at once” but like you should!!!! Max out your card, take everything we have on a subject you’re interested in, make a book fort in your home. We love that shit! It doesn’t matter if you read them or not; just take them for an adventure and bring them back whenever they’re due!
For public libraries, one of the ways we secure funding year to year is lending. Governments don’t want to fund more books if they’re not being used and the way we measure use is by issues. Regardless of whether you read it or not, whether you have it for a day or a month, if you issue it to your library card, we get the stats! It makes the library look good!
Help your local library; get books out even if you know you can’t read them all!

A few years ago when I was new around here I was reading everything I could find about Larry, even really old blogs that hadn’t been updating for a long time. I remember reading about something that I can’t find again. It was about some kind of art installation. There was a video or maybe just a gif. It was two young men undressing facing each other, like it was in front of a mirror. Mabye it even was some sort of frame between them but no glass. Their looks, height, hair and clothes looked a lot like H and L when they were younger. And there were people walking or standing around watching them. Do you know what this was and when?
LOL! Yeah. It was an art installation in London in 2016 that was inspired by fanfic. That was only part of what was there, but here’s a post with photos.
The bigger concept behind it is actually pretty interesting:
Showing as part of Jerwood Visual Arts’ “Jerwood Encounters: Common Property” exhibition, Parry’s pieces include Larry Underwater Kiss, a digital silk print, Larry!Hiroglyfics, etched drawings of the couple on Perspex alongside the slogan “ship everything”, and Larry!Domestic: masks of Louis and Harry in pink containers, alongside a wearable pregnant belly marked with Harry’s tattoos. The exhibiton event included a live piece of performance art, featuring One Direction lookalikes kissing, hugging and undressing one another.
For Parry, these works are just one extension of an existing artistic sphere, exploring “the figure of the fan as an unassuming model for invention, mobilization and revolt”. He told the Telegraph that Larry shippers are “just presenting the normal ideals of a relationship, but actually it’s really subversive”.
“These fictions are an opportunity to create – for pure expression in their field. Fandom is a space where anything can happen. We might go back to a genuine passion in art.”
It’s an important sentiment: fanfiction writers and fanart creators, especially those working within fandoms like One Direction’s, are often young women who are intellectually and creatively dismissed. But fanfiction often provides a space for young artists who might be marginalised in the mainstream to create artwork that reflects their experiences, whether it be by racebending or reimagining characters in different power structures and dynamics.
Shipping is a key part of that, particularly for LGBTQ fans, something perhaps flattened in Parry’s statement, “Creating relationships: this is a method in fandom called ‘shipping’, which I’ve basically taken on and applied to my art practice […] This whole installation is me ‘shipping’ materials and ideas, theories and passions.”

Harry Styles Ran the Tokyo Marathon—with Nearly Perfect Even Splits
The pop star ran 7:47 mile pace for 26.2 miles.
Tumblr media
Pop star Harry Styles ran the 2025 Tokyo Marathon on March 2, finishing in a time of 3:24:07, which is an average pace of 7:47 per mile.
Styles, 31, paced the marathon like a pro. He came through the half marathon mark in 1:42:03, then split 1:42:04 for the second half—although maybe it’s no surprise that the three-time Grammy winner can keep a metronomic tempo.
Okay, well he did have one small blip in his rhythm. His fastest recorded 5K split of the day came between 30K and 35K (23:16), but he slowed to 25:47 over the next 3.1 miles. Still, he finished strong and crossed the line in 6,010th place out of over 37,000 runners.
Styles was captured in a social media video during the race. He’s wearing a white hat, black Nike top, and neon Nike shoes, which appear to be the Nike Alphafly 3.
The time is impressive for Styles, and there have been signs he has some running prowess. According to a 2024 article from Coach, Styles boasts a mile personal best of 5:13 and would go for six to 11-mile easy runs with his trainer around London.
Styles has been spotted in Hoka shoes in the past, and it’s no secret than many runners get pumped to his music. U.S. Olympian Nikki Hiltz is a big fan.
While dozens of celebrities have run marathons, Styles’s sub-3:30 mark puts him among the fastest.
