Fan of taking photos with fans?
Not so much after a scary run-in this weekend.

Think of all the paparazzi photos you’ve seen.

How many times does a celeb look genuinely pleased to be photographed walking home from the gym?
I know what you might be thinking: “Oh, poor celebrity.”
But they’re regular people, too.
As gossip magazines insist,They’re just like us!Why should they have to deal with disrespect?
As Schumer points out in her Instagram post, it’s legal for people to take photos of her.
But there’s something called courtesy.
“I was asking you to stop and saying no,” she wrote.
So, how should you approach a celebrity in the wild without pissing them off?
Simplest answer: Assess the situation.
It doesn’t mean keep recording a video of her.
She’s not the only celeb publicly sharing her stance on fan selfies.
Headlines said she “blew up” at the young fan.
But if you watch the video, the scene seemed very chaotic and her response was appropriate.
Jenner even said she later took a photo with the fan after she apologized.
And time and place.
And, to the celeb, you’re just an aggressive stranger threatening their space.
As Jennifer Lawrence toldVoguein 2013she’s just people.
Its as simple as that.
Im not going to find peace with it.
And, again, ask for permission rather than jumping up behind them and snapping away.
Was I salty for a second?
But then I got over it.
And, unfortunately, people have been criticizing Schumer for her response to the incident.
It’s that simple.
I leave you with a GIF of a woman trying to discreetly photograph Taylor Swift at the Grammy’s.
We all see you:
