Even Rachael Ray’s Audience Can’t Get Excited About Awful, Faux Paparazzi Service

Perhaps inspired by the Britney-prompted downturn in paparazzi profits, former commercial photographer Tania Cowher has come up with a novel (yet terrible) solution: allowing non-celebrities to hire their own personal paparazzi via her service Celeb 4 a Day. After all, who among us hasn’t yearned to be stalked by a loudmouthed photographer screaming, “Over here! Look over here, you bitch!” on the way to Walgreens? The answer is “almost everyone,” at least if this clip from Rachael Ray is the judge. After grilling Cowher, Ray asks the audience to raise their hand if they’d use the service themselves, soliciting a feeble response. Next time, Tania, try Oprah: the audience will scream in pleasure when O yells “You get Getty Images! You get an X17 subscription! EVERYONE GETS A BAUER-GRIFFIN LOGIN!”
