I happen to know the schedule over a 4 day period of a celebrity. I would like to make some easy cash of of it, by letting some paparazzi know some details of the schedule, and how to get exclusive close up access to this a-list star during that time.

Now please dont post telling me how unethical this is. This star sells photo opportunities of herself, whenever she can. Also she will be in public, not private areas, so I dont see any laws that would be broken.

Who should I approach, and how much do you think I can ask for, for this kind of information? Maybe its worth nothing, but I would think it is.

Thanks for any positive advice.

Edited to add: Wouldnt you sell this info? If it didnt harm your job, and the celebrity was one that sold herself out all the time.

Any good FW'er would know the pictures are worth a ton more than the info. Go take them yourself.

"Asking for advice - Please dont bring up ethics"

Why, because you know it's morally wrong?

Whenever someone says something like this, he knows it's morally wrong.

Would for sure feel it was wrong if it was someone who tried to protect their privacy. She does not. I only said that because people would want to thread crap about that, and I am only looking for advice on how to profit, not about whether its right or wrong.

Kate Gosselin is a BI$%^ and nobody wants to see her anymore anyway....

oh wait you said A-list.... Angelina Jolie? Jennifer Aniston? Kaylani Lei?

Just because "she" chooses to be open with her personal life doesnt mean you are entitled to be equally open with her personal life as well.

Should you choose to ignore the risk of unemployment, the best approach will depend on the specifics of the schedule and the odds that the planned activities result in her being seen in a compromising position. The beach and nightclubs is a more valuable itinerary than one where you can only see her going back and forth between the car and various office buildings.

Why not just get a camera and see what you can shoot yourself?

Thanks for the warnings, but thats not how I got this info. Thanks for the info.

... this is not an advice forum

you are suppose to come here to share information on how we all can either make money or save money

.... if you come here for advice, then all bets are off --- you are fair game for thread crapping

so why don't you share some more info on how you became privy to this persons personal schedule so we can rip you apart on your desire to breach that trust

Sure its an advice forum, who said it wasn't? I would love to share the deal if it was possible, I owe much to the FWF community, but that isn't possible. I know Im fair game, I was hoping people would be nice about it. Obviously its their choice.

people can disagree, but when in the world of hypotheticals and general advice --- I believe the ethical component can't be ignored

why would someone want to give out unethical advice? particulary if they aren't getting paid for it

That is true for some people. Im sure there are also others out there that would be happy to help someone profit....

Anyways its a matter of opinion of whether its ethical or not. I dont see anything unethical about it when the subject does not care about their privacy.

if they don't care ... then the answer is simple, tell them what you are going to do

Regardless of the past, unless you ask you have no idea if she cares this time or not.

I know where Michael Jackson will be one week from now. Can I get paid for that?
