Today brings a new development in the ongoing war between terrified celebrities and the world’s growing army of paparazzi. Nicole Kidman testified in a New South Wales state Supreme Courtroom this morning in a defamation suit brought against a celebrity photographer, Jamie Fawcett, in her native country. In the actress’ statement to the court, she detailed how two years ago she was chased by the aggressive paparazzo. Fearing a car accident during the ordeal, Ms. Kidman claimed, she was “reduced to tears.”

From the Associated Press story:

The Sydney photographer has been suing The Sun-Herald over "an article that said he was Sydney's most disliked freelance photographer and was determined to 'wreak havoc' on Kidman's private life," and a jury has already agreed. The present deliberation is over whether the newspaper owes him money, and how much.
