The People Paparazzi

Check out what looks very much like a promotional video for Splash News' citizen journalism agency, on extraTV.com - ending with a catchy "Becoming a paparazzo is as easy as snap, send and sell!"

"Us Weekly's resident trend spotter Katrina Szish told us (extraTV.com) that Average Joes are now, "Snapping pictures of celebrities with their cell phones or digital cameras, and then trying to cash in on those pictures."

Some useful information from the article:

-- Britney Spears' wedding photo made $150,000 for the lucky guy who took it,

-- Colin Farrell's kiss was worth $4,500

-- Brangelina in a mall brought in $30,000

-- Paris in a make out session was worth $7,500.
