Money-Grabbing Williams Snubbed By Snappers
Tuesday, September 19, 2006
Robbie Williams has incurred the wrath of snappers worldwide after demanding the rights to any photographs they take of him, ensuring he can make money on them after their initial use.
But the Angels star's orders have caused German publications Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten and Suddeutsche Zeitung to boycott the singer, and, where they once would have printed an image of Williams' beaming face next to his gig review, they are leaving a blank space instead.
The Daily Mirror has followed suit by leaving an empty picture box beside a news item about the increasingly unpopular star.
The European Federation of Journalists is urging the media to stay away from Williams' current world tour as a result of the mercenary restrictions.
