Saw a fake paparazzi setup outside a Bronson diner last Tuesday

I was grabbing a 2 pm late lunch at that Greek place on Bronson when I saw a guy in a vest fake-snap photos of a minor reality star eating alone. He even had a buddy pretend to shove a mic in her face, but the whole thing looked staged, like they were filming a bit for something. Is this a new PR trick where celebs pay people to act like paparazzi for street cred, or was I just witnessing a really weird acting class?

Wait, hold on. You mean the paparazzi guy had a VEST on? Like a real press vest with the little pockets and everything? That is insane. Ngl, that detail is what really sells the whole scam to me because who actually wears those things unless they are trying to look official as heck. Honestly, it sounds like some low-level manager thought paying two dudes to fake snap photos would make their client look more famous than she is. Tbh, that is so pathetic it almost circles back to being funny, but also kinda sad for everyone involved, especially her. I bet the whole thing gets cut into some reality show blooper or a thirsty Instagram story later.
