Mischa Barton had no idea there were paparazzi sitting on the next towel. Totally shocked.

Q: What do you do when you’ve just been busted for DUI and you don’t really have a lot of, you know, ACTING JOBS in the pipeline?
A: You arrange for a ‘surprise" shoot with a papparazzi agency that makes it look like you’re just naturally having a quiet pose – I mean sunbake – at the beach! Oh wait! First you get your hair and make-up totally done. And also you should practice reading a book in the most unnatural and yet flattering position possible.

This scam happens all the time. Posh Spice is a master of the Arranged Spontaneous Photo Opportunity. Same with Delta Goodrem. In many cases, the celeb shares the profits from the photo’s sale with the photo agency. But mostly? It’s just a way to further control and manipulate your image in the media.

My fave picture after the jump

  1. Did you see her on Rove last night? The hair cut she’s sporting right now looks ridiculous

    Jaz, forgive my ignorance stupidity, but I’ve been dying to ask someone for a long time… what the hell does lol stand for?
    I wish people would stop writing it. It’s the literary equivalent of the emoticon, and makes the writer look like a halfwit.

    Urgh it’s all just so pretentious…
    But you know what? If I looked that fabulous in a bikini, I would probably get people to take extra-flattering photos of me, too.

  12. Reminds me of those snaps of Delta and Brian on their *secret romantic holiday* which were sooooo posed, totally made-up and properly lit, but supposedly candid. Do they really think people are that stupid?
