Seal: A Douche When Nobody's Around

0 votes

Seal's got a combative past with the paps -- but throw a bunch of screaming women around him and he's suddenly a much friendlier person.

In Seal's defense, not cause he's some celebrity musician or for any surface reason, I offer you this thought; Have you ever considered the fact that some people don't like being followed wherever they go with their family ( He also has small children & I'm a parent who is ultra protective with the paparazzi when they come flinging into my face with their loud shouting and reckless driving). It's given me a few panick attacks in my life for sure! Even if I do understand they have a job to do, in many ways that job they do helps boost your popularity as well. It's a real fine line. Know what I'm saying? He also suffers with Lupus, such as myself and we tend to have more magnified and faster nervous systems. Loud noises, ultra violet light, cigarette smoke & what's that light they always use in supermarkets that really irritates people with Lupus? Hmmmm? I forgot the name...but, it literally becomes a challenge just to make it through a few simple tasks in your day, let alone show up for his concerts, practice, care & pay attention to his 3 children and lovely wife, as well as keep his head looking straight ahead and focussing when it is far more challenging for somebody with his health issues. You need to check up on that. I wear ear plugs in my ears at times, because normal noises are magnified beyond any sort of bearable level! I just cover my ears with my hair. But, the thing is, I love people and even feel blessed at the prospect of getting free press. Sometimes we all just need our space to be people. He was angry and feeling protective which is why I feel he reacted the way he did with photogs. He more than likely felt he was being minipulated too when the guy mentioned that one of the guys standing close by was a HUGE FAN OF HIS! He just wanted to get away and he should have been respected. This is why he lost his cool. The video and article imply he's some kind of A-Hole, which I simply do not agree. That is a bad judgement call on your part in my opinion. Have you walked 1,000 miles in that man's shoes or not? I think not. Nor could he know what it's like to be you. Respect his space and perhaps he won't appear as though he is nice to pretty women while on stage and then the big, bad villain when being swamped by infectious photographers 24/7. Ridiculous of you to even suggest!
