Feisty former Bachelor contestant Keira Maguire has hit back at allegations she’s been “chasing” Sydney’s paparazzi.
When the Daily Telegraph published a short yet catty article about Keira’s interaction with a local photographer on Friday, the 29-year-old used Instagram to set the record straight.
Beginning by asking if the reality star’s “15 minutes of notoriety” are “about to expire”, the article goes on to accuse Keira of trying to get a photographer’s attention by walking on the same street.
The article’s author said when the reality star was “finally noticed by the pap” as she was about to get into her car, she stopped so they could take a photo.
“It seems the fame bestowed on so-called ‘Lara Bingle lookalike’ was more fleeting that she’d hoped,” it concluded cattily.

Keira, never one to hold back, let her fans — and the newspaper itself — know exactly what she thought of the article.
“Thanks for the exposure, God knows I need it,” she wrote.
The stylish star said the paparazzo had in fact followed her, and she allowed them to take another photo when she realised the first ones weren’t up to scratch.
Because, as anyone who saw her in the Bachelor mansion knows, if Keira doesn’t like something she’ll happily tell you about it:
