Suge Knight And Katt Williams Charged Of Stealing Camera Of Celebrity Paparazzi: Do They Have The Back Of Other Anti-Paparazzi Celebrities?

News of Suge Knight and Katt Williams, two celebrities in their own right, being charged with robbery on Wednesday, October 29, for stealing the camera of a lady paparazzi based in Beverly Hills on September 6, is a proof that the co-existence of celebrities and photographers is far from civil. In fact, both should take loads of self control and extra caution when they meet in events, or collide in the street as they both perform their jobs.

According to Beverly Hills Police Sgt. Max Subin, Marion Suge Knight, a rapper who used to own Death Row Records, and Katt Williams, a comedian, came across the lady photographer from a studio, followed her in the studio alley, and forcibly took her camera. With slight injuries, she reported the incident to the police who immediately tried to locate the suspects but were nowhere instantly.

That sparse detail on the other circumstances that occurred prior to the camera theft already suggest that both Suge Knight and Katt Wiliams have a distaste for paparazzis. It is not known whether the paparazzis were a factor to their strings of police records on account of their assault histories.

According to a CNN report, prosecutors will ask Suge Knight and Katt Williams a whopping $1 million and $75,000, respectively, for bail.

Suge Knight and Katt Williams join the league of paparazzi haters Kanye West, Sean Pen, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Bjork, Miley Cyrus and Halle Berry whose violent reactions with the paparazzis were well photographed.

These celebrities have grabbed and broken cameras, screamed, cursed and shoved photographers, and even got themselves arrested and charged, jailed and were subjected to seminars on anger management. Sean Penn, was said to be super violent with the paps, and was slapped of attempted murder for dangling a photographer from a 9th floor balcony. Justin Bieber, at 12 years old and not physically intimidating, dared challenge a paparazzi one time. Britney Spears' bald-and-umbrella hitting of a photographer's SUV was infamous. And the classic and most tragic of them all, the death of Princess Diana in a car crash for avoiding a paparazzi, was still being grieved. And so on and so forth.

Can't celebrities and paparazzis co-exist like co-workers in the industry of glamour and intrigue? Or their clashes make their world more interesting. Not so when there's violence.
