Sting harrased by cameraphones at ski resort
Popsinger Sting cut short his ski vacation on the Italian slopes in early January because he was tired of being constantly photographed with cameraphones "even when exiting the sauna", according to the Italian press.
"Sting had been staying with his family at luxury hotel Cristallo in Cortina d'Ampezzo, in the northeastern mountains of Italy, but after a few days he left the noble ski station to escape the harassment of the amateur paparazzi.
The daily Corriere della Sera quotes Sting's snowboard teacher Alberto Belfi saying: "People were continuously taking pictures of him with their cell phones. They were rude, placing themselves without asking and without consideration in front of him at the restaurant or in the line to the skilift to get a close-up".
