#paparazzi got his ass pic on tabloids

Life of a million dollar baby

i think also they didn't get paid after Simmons deleted the Blues (no payroll entries, no paycheck) so they've probably been pretty broke for a while until they turn in the director and the unsc goes uhhh we better put you back on payroll

broke ass frat boys. they would absolutely sell out. do u think donut would start his own like beauty care line that has an MLM sales scheme

Grif could get Matthews to run around taking candids/paparazzi pics of the reds and blues to sell to like. fans but also shady tabloids. this comes to a screeching halt when the tabs start "investigating" the secret relationship of "Dixter" because Matthews got a well-angled shot of him and Simmons that could be suggestively interpreted

on a lighter note people saying he doesn’t get paid enough. okay that’s real. i can’t imagine being the savior of chorus is actually a well paying gig. do you think the reds and blues would take corporate sponsorships. they are celebrities. you KNOW so many of them would sell out

I always wanted to ask this but what would happen if the paparazzi found out about the reader? For example maybe they are buying their groceries and suddenly 3 paparazzi show up and ask them about their relationship with bakugou. And the next day the headlines say "Aggressiv Hero Omega Tamed!?"

Oh, the rambling power you have given me, dear sweet anon.

Honestly, that’s almost exactly what was happening, with the exception that they didn’t have a face to match to y/n as the alpha. Bakugou aggressively turned down a few reporters and heroes in the early days. “I already have an alpha, why the fuck would I want your pathetic ass?”

Well, the tabloids loved that. “BakuBrat’s Mystery Alpha! Who Dares to Take on Heroing’s Problem Omega?” Comments about how clearly whoever it was must not be much of an alpha. That sort of thing.

Bakugou could have handled all of that, if it weren’t for one thing. The paparazzi desperately wanted a pic of you. They started stalking Bakugou and managed to get a few really grainy shots of you from the back. Well, that kinda freaked Bakugou out. He didn’t want villains to know what you looked like. And a couple of crooks he took down tried to taunt him about how when they got out, they’d be paying his pretty little bitch alpha a visit…. It kinda freaked him out. So that’s when Bakugou would have ended the dates going out, etc.

Now, you specifically asked about a scenario when the paparazzi did get face pics of y/n. Honestly, that would have set off an entirely different chain of events. Y/n would have gotten a lot of scrutiny during Bakugou’s early career. Bakugou would have insisted they move in together so he could keep y/n safe. And just by living together, the communication would have been so much better. Reader would have called out Bakugou for somehow managing to be both smothering and distant. Bakugou would have argued about y/n being callus of his feelings and fears. It would have been a bit tumultuous, but very healthy for them in the long run. Y/n would have low key ended up as public figure. Maybe would do publicity tours about omegan equality and how secondary gender shouldn’t define life paths.

Y/N absolutely gets a fan club. Katsuki is proud but also hates it, because it feels like the world is ogling his alpha.

Omg that unhinged shipper account on insta turning Harry’s stalker situation into a ‘we won’t post pics of them at their residence ❤️’ first of all there is no their place of residence literally only harry lives there also literally this has nothing to do with her at alllll. Like, not one bit of it. I can’t wait for that account to have a meltdown when they break up. They will def pull a pls respect our privacy at this time 😭

AT THEIR RESIDENCE? They don’t fucking live together I… I’m gonna lose my shit lmfao I am so sick of these people. It’s like I said to my friends: you have to be a different kind of twisted person to make this about your inexistent ship, ESPECIALLY because Olivia’s ass supposedly had a stalker of her own and yet had no issues hiring paparazzis to photograph her at her children’s school, Harry’s street, the house she rented in LA and the one she shared with Jason, basically every outing she had in California and so on. This has nothing to do with her - she’d only make matters worse. This is solely about Harry and that poor woman who got assaulted. It’s his trauma, it’s his experience and people shouldn’t be exploring it for clout nor fandom/tabloid fodder.

you gotta admit that the timing of them being so public is a liitle suspicious. they were so private for months, to the point when everyone was sure they broke up and now boom tons of paparazzi pics (and yes, im sure capri pics were arranged, sorry brian but we all know how that works) and getting spotted by random people three times a day. and im not saying that means they're fake. they might be very real and just not against playing it up when it's needed. (1)

(2) and it's kind of mbleh bc eventually it overshadows the work. fandom is more interested in whatever is going on with them than in the movie, same about the media. general public might know absolutely nothing about the movie (or timmy himself) but they sure as hell know about their relationship cz that's more interesting

Hey nonnie!

I don’t agree that the timing is suspicious. If they got together during/after The King last summer, then checked out last autumn and winter how it felt for both of them (during which at least Tim worked his ass off with 2 films and BB promo) and then worked again almost nonstop during spring/summer - now is the logical time to go public. They’ve been together for a year, it seems solid enough to make it known, and they have time they can spend together. Would you scream a new relationship from the rooftop after just a few weeks during which you mabye didn’t see each other that often because you are both busy? That they didn’t snog on Venice red carpet might be precisely because you now somehow doubt them, because they didn’t want to overshadow their movie, aware that a shit storm or some tabloids reporting solely about their relationship would overshadow the film.

What proof is there for these pics being arranged? You know that Emma Stone (I think) was papped there as well a few days later? How do you know how these things work? I don’t, I don’t work in celeb PR. My 2 cents are because their kisses look somewhat clumsy they are real. We’ve seen Tim’s filmkisses, I’m sure he could have made them look more sexy had he known this was happening. Them looking at the camera proves nothing as well. What people who know about this told me is that paps operate with huge lenses, taking pics from very far away, and that often their cameras are not recognizable as such (because usually celebs see paps as an intrusion to their privacy and don’t like them, so the paps have to hide). So they just looked in a direction, not at a camera.

AFAIK Tim has always said he wants to lead a normal life. His normal life means living in NY, his family is in show biz, he dated Madonna’s daughter, he’s getting famous. Of course he’ll be spotted. LRD grew up in the limelight as well. This is normal for them, or becoming normal. What would the alternative to going out for coffee and food be? Living in some remote celeb compound behind high walls? Never leaving their apartment? Come on.

And I don’t see them playing anything up. They are a young couple, leaving their apartment, wearing each others clothes (something re T/A was taken as proof for them shagging their brains out btw), getting bagels. I mean... how is that playing anything up? To me that seems super low key when it comes to Hollywood actors.

Them being together isn’t newsworthy any longer, only in fan spaces there are discussions. But the public has moved on. Besides, Tim has 3 more movies coming out. They tried to keep even The King separate from their private lives. With LW, no one except a tiny corner of the fandom will make any fuss about this relationship anymore. It will again be about the movie. Even now, I doubt that gossip mags printing those pics have a large overlap with people who are into medieval Shakespeare adaptions. We here live in a bubble and see things from our own distorted perspective. For example, where I live, it was written that LRD has a new boyfriend, not even his name was mentioned, that was the news.

He’s an actor, has a grilfriend, and tries to lead his life. At least this is how it looks for me. Nothing to make a hue and cry about.

Don't you think it's possible Ryan is only with Eva because of the children?

No? Not at all?1. If he was so unhappy, he wouldn't have had a second kid with her. 2. If he was so unhappy, he wouldn't still be with her.3. If he was so unhappy, he wouldn't be ~toughing it out for the kids, especially considering his childhood. I just couldn't see him doing that.4. Dude carries himself, his life and career with such careful precision and planning- he's probably isn't going to make such a permanent investment such as a long term relationship and CHILDREN without really wanting it (ex. He was talking about settling down and having children years before doing so, he had a plan).5. This is the same guy who abruptly quit acting for three years when he became unhappy- he's not going to stay in a situation that makes him/his daughters miserable. Period.He, now hear me out, maybe, probably, possibly is actually really happy and content in his relationship and actually really loves Eva. Dude is a grown ass man who is also rich, successful and fiercely independent- dude is not going to stay in a relationship he doesn't want to be in. With all due respect, y'all have got to let go of the "he's unhappy/trapped" narrative when everything that isn't made up blind items/tabloids and five second paparazzi pics says otherwise. Stop projecting and stop babying the grown ass man who can and does make his own decisions, it's so disrespectful. Come on now.
