More than two-thirds of Hawaii's state senators have signed onto a bill to protect celebrities from paparazzi, giving famous faces power to sue over unwanted beach photos and other snapshots on the islands.

And the bill's author says he's pushing the law at the request of Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler.

A representative for Aerosmith declined immediate comment Thursday night, saying Tyler was not immediately available.

Orthodoxy SUCKS.

"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson

Heck, even I would vote to pass a bill not to take his picture.

Ignoring the obvious question as to why celebrities should get special treatment, who/what defines what a celebrity is?

I was just thinking that, myself.

If people want to take a picture of Frankie Avalon and he says it is an invasion of his privacy, would his complaint get the same consideration as Beyonce's complaint?

I would guess that is applies to anyone with the name of 0bama or Dunham.
