Blige, Paris Hilton, Rosie O'Donnell, Mario Lopez, Entourage co-stars Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon and Jerry Ferrara and others, Teenage Paparazzo examines first-hand the tenuous relationship between celebrities and the people who make a living selling their images.

SYNOPSIS:
Well-acquainted with fans who have trouble distinguishing real life from fiction, Grenier's chance encounter with 14-year old paparazzo Austin Visschedyk finds the actor intrigued by the fast-talking and even faster-snapping teen's efforts to get the "perfect shot." Deciding to hang out with the young photographer, Grenier gets a taste for the "other side" while learning the tricks of the trade in a behind-the-scenes look at the worldwide obsession with fame and the realities and illusions of
celebritydom.
