The early 2000s was the golden age of the paparazzi, and the photos captured then (be it Britney Spears wearing a “Dump Him” T-shirt on a coffee run or Kim Kardashian taking a painful sip of vodka at the club) have lived on like sullied souvenirs of decades past. Over the years, we’ve only become more fascinated with the lives of celebrities, but when the internet became available to all, social media usurped the paparazzo. So why does it feel like we’re going backwards? The shock factor of paparazzi pictures seems to be getting attention once again. But this time, it’s thanks to Julia Fox. And unlike her predecessors, she’s in on the joke.
