ita, where is the Krav Center in Pasadena?
I'm asking out of curiousity... not that I actually plan on going or anything.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think there's a definite limit in how intrusively celebrities should be treated. She's only rich and famous. Doesn't make her less deserving of civility, and if someone did that to me, I'd be freaking pissed.

There isn't one at this time. They were considering either Pasadena or Sherman Oaks, and it looks like it'll be the Oaks.

Huh. Sherman Oaks is closer.
And there's a Burke Williams right there.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I draw the line at chasing a celebrity in a car and using a zoom lense to catch them naked while sunbathing. That's just shitty.
If they're at Costco or Starbucks, drunk off their ass in a club with mascara running down their sweaty face or having boobular containment issues on the red carpet, shoot away. Anything else is pretty subhuman behavior.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So, the folks who got run into are just collateral damage? I have a hell of a lot more sympathy for them. They probably didn't have someone bring them a shiny new Mercedes. They're going to have to deal with all the paperwork from the accident. They're the ones who'll be driving a car that CarFax will set off warning bells about. Their insurance will probably go up, too.

If it's not their fault? Wouldn't Scarlett or at least her insurance company be paying? Or they could certainly sue the paparazzi.
I totally feel for the poor folks that got hit--they're innocent bystanders. But it doesn't mean the blame should be all Scarlett's, either.

DX, I have no difficulty feeling bad for both parties. I don't see where I implied otherwise.

She's the one who drove her car recklessly. Being chased by photographers is really no excuse.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yeah. If it seemed that Scarlett dismissed the damage done the other party, then it would be different, but it seems she was pretty distraught about that too. (Which, I would add, were I in her position would simply compound the wrong I'd felt the papparazzi had done to both to us.)
