296 Brain-blowing
Elliot Courter was watching the surfing competition in front of him, but he was a little distracted, his eyes constantly scanning the beach, trying to find a target. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As a paparazzi, it is natural to know the actions of the target person. Every winter, going to the island to shoot is a rare benefit. On the one hand, the space on the island is limited, which makes it much easier to take candid photos, and on the other hand, there is no need to deliberately look for actors, models, directors, singers, etc., almost everywhere.
Last week, he photographed Leonardo DiCaprio and a group of "Victoria's Secret" supermodels on a yacht at sea, and the three-day party really attracted a lot of attention, and this week Jessica-Alba (Jessica-Alba) was pictured on vacation with her husband and daughter.
In Hawaii, for example, sometimes it's all it takes to take a stroll around the tourist-filled beaches of Waikiki to capture a public figure on vacation ā the largest tourist gathering place in all of Oahu, and it's a no-brainer.
What's more, Hawaii is the hometown of the current president, Barak-Obama, and the president takes a week or so out of his vacation every year to return to his hometown, even if he can't photograph celebrities in the entertainment industry, it would be nice to capture the president's vacation figure.
Simple work, golden sunshine, lazy afternoons, idle life...... For Elliot, this is his vacation of the year.
Today, however, Elliot has a special job.
He received a tip that Scarlett Johansson had flown to Hawaii for a vacation after the "Avengers" were finished.
Just two days ago, Ryan Reynolds announced through his public relations team that he had ended his two-year short marriage with Scarlett, and the two parties had a blessing mentality, hoping that the other party could find happiness;
Obviously, journalists won't buy it easily.
At the end of every marriage, both parties look like "the years are quiet", and even if they break up, they will send blessings to each other, but everyone knows that behind the cracks in the marriage, there must be blood. For example, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, and Angelina Jolie cut the marital infidelity that was messy and messy, and for example, the "science/learning/teaching" doubts when Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman broke up.
This time is no exception.
Everyone is speculating whether Ryan and Blake-Lively had a spark during the filming of "Green Lantern"? Because Blake had just broken up with Penn-Badgley, his partner and boyfriend in "Gossip Girl", in September!
Or is there something going on between Scarlett and Sean Penn? In October, Sean went to the "Avengers" crew to visit the class, and was photographed by the paparazzi at that time, and everyone was speculating whether Sean was pursuing Scarlett? But this news is also impossible to confirm, because there are too many big-name actors in the crew, and the target of Sean's visit may be anyone. But now that Scarlett is divorced, has this suspicion been set off again?
This is definitely the hottest focus at the moment, and countless paparazzi are collectively dispatched, hoping to dig out the truth behind the breakdown of this marriage.
When Elliot learned that Scarlett had actually come to Oahu for a vacation, how could he easily miss it? What's even more interesting is that Elliot also photographed Blake Lively last weekend, and his first reaction at the time was that Blake had come to chase stars - Leonardo was her dream girl at the beginning of her childhood, and she made no secret of her love and admiration for Leonardo in many interviews.
Now, though, things are even more interesting. Elliot deeply believed that there must be a truth hidden in this mess. The reason why he came to Sunset Beach today was because he heard that Scarlett had come here to watch the surfing competition.
Unfortunately, there were too many people on the beach, and he searched several times, but never saw Scarlett. He decided to relax a little and then relaunch a new search, otherwise he would now feel like he was seeing people everywhere and faces a little indistinguishable.
For the paparazzi, any amateur activity is a luxury, he has never played surfing, and he has no interest, and the wonderful surfing competition in front of him is not even as good as the bikini girl reading a book next to her, although she has some nerdy temperament.
Elliot couldn't help but be stunned, why did that face look so familiar just now, he turned his gaze back again, searched the crowd, and without any effort, he saw the man.
The man who made him dizzy with his unexpected behavior after the Emmy Awards, the rookie who made him pay the taxi fare but couldn't interview anything, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, the newcomer who made him angry but ashamed to speak, and rose as fast as a comet!
That's him, Lancet-Hall.
Elliot felt that this was a very peculiar newcomer, he was not the kind of sharp, dazzling type, nor the kind of type that was focused and radiant in the audience, in his body, there was always a quiet and restrained elegance, this temperament, not as flamboyant as Brad Pitt, not as loud as Robert Downey Jr., not as sharp as Marlon Brando, but even in the boiling and noisy heatwave, he could easily find his existence, and his eyes involuntarily converged on him.
It's like this moment. He also has two friends by his side, one is sunny and cheerful, with a bright smile on his face, naturally with a refreshing smell of a surfer boy, and the other has a cold temperament, with a tough face line and a tall and muscular body, with an aggressive sense of oppression. On this beach, both figures could easily attract the attention of others, but when Elliot turned his gaze, he saw Lan Li for the first time.
So, why is Lan Li here? Wait, isn't that Paul Walker?
With a click, Elliot quickly pressed the shutter and unwittingly recorded the scene. Sure enough, work on the island is always so easy that you can encounter unexpected surprises without even noticing.
He looked down and checked the results of the photo just now, I don't know why, he always felt that the effect of the shot was average, and he didn't capture the look of Lan Li's eyes, eyebrows, and smile at all, but the whole person suddenly became rigid. Was it because of the light? So Eliot turned around again, aimed at Lance and Paul, and pressed the shutter again.
Who is the person next to them? Is the actor? Why is there no impression at all? Lan Li appeared on Oahu because "Fast and Thrill 5" was completed? It was rumored that Lan Li and the crew got along very well, but now it seems to be true, Lan Li actually came over with Paul to surf - Paul's enthusiasm for surfing is also well known in Hollywood.
So, does Lan Li have anything to do with Scarlett and Ryan's lace news?
Elliot carefully searched for the information in his head, but found no connection, and there was no connection between them. However, this does not mean that it is impossible! This is Hollywood, where there are countless handsome guys and beauties, Hollywood where any encounter can rub sparks, and Hollywood, where falling in love is almost as common as drinking water and eating.
Not long ago in Toronto, there was an affair between Lan Li and Natalie Portman, although it was later confirmed to be an oolong, but people always raised their hands to welcome things that were pleasing to the eye. Elliot couldn't help but make up the picture of Lan Li and Scarlett standing side by side, and suddenly felt interesting, and between breaths, he had already written a romance novel.
If that's really the case, then he's digging up the earth-shattering news-
Lan Li and Scarlett fall in love at first sight? Scarlett cheated in marriage and abandoned Ryan? Sexual/sexy black widow fell in love with handsome little fresh meat? Scarlett likes the new and hates the old, and Ryan was actually defeated in terms of "handsomeness"? Forty-eight hours after the divorce, Scarlett couldn't wait to go to the island to meet her lover? How did the two meet? Is it a thunderbolt and Mars hits the earth? Or is it ...... Lan Li and Ryan saw each other right and then the two of them abandoned Scarlett?
Wonderful, so wonderful!
Elliot couldn't help but turn his head again, and recorded such a precious image with his camera - if he couldn't take a photo of Lan Li and Scarlett's private tryst later, he could also find out the truth from the clues in the photo. For example, a piece of jewelry, a bracelet, a piece of clothing, or even a lipstick shade...... These are potential evidence!
Raising his eyes, Elliot saw those eyes, the distance between the two people was about fifteen steps, and the sense of space was huge, but Elliot felt that he was completely locked by those eyes, like a net of heaven and earth, and there was nowhere to escape.
Oops, was discovered.
Elliot chuckled inwardly. But the shutter in his hand still didn't hesitate, he pressed it directly, and then the two of them looked at each other, and his candid shooting behavior was discovered, Elliot was slightly annoyed, but after the initial panic, he quickly calmed down.
In the confrontation between paparazzi and artists, it is always the latter who loses.
The paparazzi can shoot unscrupulously, the only reason they need to hide their tracks is to kill a surprise and shoot precious pictures, but if they are discovered, it doesn't matter, more often, the paparazzi are blatantly shooting, and it can even be said that they do whatever they want.
If the artist and the paparazzi confront each other head-on, the paparazzi will even deliberately provoke each other and create news - then the one who makes the mistake must still be the beater; if the artist scolds the paparazzi, all the content will be published for the public to see, and even, in order to retaliate against the artist, the ugly photos of the artist will be published, and the public image that has been worked hard before will inevitably be affected.
Coupled with the law's affirmation of press freedom, especially the irrefutable nature of public figures, the paparazzi can almost be said to be unscrupulous.
So, Elliot didn't need to be afraid at all.
