Last month we told you about Kate Moss losing a hair extension on the red carpet after a long night out.

The German photographer who landed the tuft of hair has decided to throw it on eBay because, you know, he’s probably done having fun with it.

Malibu Mayor Pamela Ulich has asked Ken Starr (yes, that one) to draw up new city laws involving the paparazzi who work in the celebrity-filled city.

Her plan is to make “buffer zones” for photographers who follow celebs to the beach, she also wants to tax them. She is hoping that the cameramen will “think twice before shoving a camera in your face”.

There have been two situations this week where surfers chased the paparazzi off the beach where Matthew MCConaughey was surfing.

With the internet and paparazzi sites burning up the internet the problem has gotten progressively worse over the past few years.

Ulich hopes to help control the menacing problem.

A group of surfers weren’t too happy when paparazzi came onto the beach in Malibu in hopes of catching a shot of Matthew McConaughey.

As the paparazzi filmed McConaughey surfing and waited for him to return to the beach, a group of pissed off, drunk young men approached them.

The young men get all worked up and do that testosterone thing that young punkasses do after a few free-flowing half racks of Pabst. Like a pack of dogs they approached the paps.

“We’ll draw a line in the beach, and we’ll fight for the beach. If you guys win, you can have the beach,” said one of the guys. The insults flew back and forth between the two groups of men and before you know it things got out of hand. Women on the beach are freaking out and one photographer who tried to stand his ground was soon on the receiving end of some pop shots - his camera eventually being thrown into the water.

Check out the video here.

Kate Moss had a bit of a hair-malfunction in Germany after promoting her new fragrance, Velvet Hour.

The supermodel returned to her Berlin hotel and while on the red carpet one of her hair extensions came tumbling off her head and onto the ground.

Of course a photographer was there with a quickness to swipe up the piece of Moss. The giddy paparazzo proudly displayed the lock of hair to his colleagues who eagerly snapped pics and secretly envied him.

Ahhh..the exciting life of the paparazzi…

A paparazzo, Edwin Merino, 30, has been arrested and charged with stalking Jamie Lynn Spears and the father of her baby, Casey Aldridge, in Liberty, Mississippi.

Merino, denies that he was stalking the younger Spears, but insists he was singled out because he was the only photographer in the small town.

“I’ve seen the young man Casey in pictures. I haven’t worked on them myself. The first time I got a good look at him was in court,” said Merino.

He admits he followed the couple for four days while in Liberty, but insists he kept his distance and used a long lens camera. He adds that he didn’t get any good shots of Jamie Lynn during his time in Liberty, until he went to Walmart to buy some deodorant.

“The one picture I got was kind of by luck. I got lucky when I saw them at Wal-Mart when I was buying deodorant.”

The cameraman posted bond Tuesday and is scheduled to appear in court next week. All in all he says his trip was “a waste.”

Merino is the same photographer who once captured older sister Britney Spears without any panties on. That must have been the high point of his career. So of course this trip was a waste, he was probably hoping for exclusive upskirt uterus shots of Jamie Lynn or something.

Thank gawd I am not famous.

I could not stand to have paparazzi around me like Lindsay Lohan has in this video. I think I would lose it! I’d seriously have to come out swinging nunchucks or a heavy ball and chain and shit. I kid not, there would be blood!

Paris Hilton normally loves attention from paparazzi, but recently she fell down as she tried to outrun them and ended up cutting her precious little face.

Unfortunately, we don’t get to see the fall itself or the injury, but here it is anyway.

Alison Silva, photographer, is suing paparazzi agency X17 alleging it’s employees assaulted him during a Britney Spears chase on March 5th.

Silva is suing for unspecified damages. The counts include battery, assault, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent infliction of emotion distress, negligence, negligent hiring, training, supervision, and retention of unfit employees. Whew, that’s a hell of a list!

From Hollywood Bubble:

Our sources tell us Silva was severely beaten by three X17 paparazzi following a Britney Spears chase because he had the top spot behind her vehicle. Once the confrontation happened, we hear three paparazzi knocked him out and continued to kick him while on the ground, pressing his head against the asphalt, breaking his nose and causing head injuries. He was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. A police investigation is currently underway.

The X17 agency has received criticism in the past for hiring illegal aliens and people with criminal backgrounds as “independent contractors” even though they work and act as employees. X17 protects themselves this way since they can’t be held liable for the work done by the independent contractor. The lawsuit was filed today.

Paparazzi had best watch themselves if they dare snap photos of Nicole Kidman and her bodyguard.

This week there have been two instances involving photographers and Nicole’s entourage.

During the the first incident on Wednesday, a 53-year old cameraman was attacked by Kidman’s hot headed trainer as he filmed them hiking.

Then on Thursday a Flynet photographer named Jeremy and the same 53-year old paparazzi followed Nicole and her bodyguard on her way to the gym. The cars stopped, the bodyguard got out and approached the paps vehicle, obviously pissed.

That’s when it all went down.

As you can see in the video, the bodyguard gave the paps a little bitch beatdown! You can hear him screaming like a girl throughout the assault because you know, he’s the victim here. He’s probably screaming louder and more violent because he knows that sh*t is being taped.

After the bodyguard left Jeremy called 911 because, again, he wants to play the victim. It’s not like he got schooled with a 2×4 or anything. Yeah, he’s scratched up and bruised, but I’m sure the little f*cker had it coming.

The police are investigating the incident.

This time it was at Bob Hope airport where Tonya was filmed eating and having a beer before a flight to Portland. Before she knew she was being filmed she blew her nose and chewed her food with her mouth open.

After the cameraman made it obvious he was filming her she got a little peeved after she kept running into him. Tonya flipped off the camera and complained on numerous occasions to security before finally escaping the paps lens.

Although it’s mildly entertaining to watch her patience grow thinner and thinner I can’t help think about what a pain in the ass it would be to have to deal with that. I’d probably end up going Sean Penn on their ass.
