Book excerpt: New-York based photographer and culture journalist Nadja Sayej is known for her candid Q&As with celebrities—be it on Zoom or on the red carpet. Having interviewed over 500 stars, from Sarah Jessica Parker to Susan Sarandon and David Lynch, she’s always asked: “What is that celebrity really like?” In 33 candid short stories about her minute-by-minute moments with the stars, she answers that question. From dinner with Kanye West in Miami to interviewing Salma Hayek in Venice, or lunching with Steve Martin in Grand Central Station, each story is an adventure that details what the stars are like up close and personal, with behind-the-scenes photos and comedic tidbits. This book is an accumulation of the stories behind the stories as a culture journalist. Featuring backstage access over the past 10 years (2010 to 2020), it’s a peek into how she scored her major interviews with stars like Kathleen Turner, Spike Lee and Karl Lagerfeld, as well as what it has been like attending A-list events like Heidi Klum’s legendary Halloween party. This is all driven by her snarky observations, with photos taken by the female gaze.

Download or read book Paparazzi Bitch written by Nadja Sayej and published by ArtStars* Books. This book was released on 2022-11-12 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the female gaze look like in celebrity photography? We are long beyond the time of a paparazzo being the "predator" and the actress being the "prey." Nowadays, more and more women photographers are on the streets, on the red carpet and behind the scenes at film festivals. The result? A sisterhood has emerged that shows stars in a different light. This new photography book comes from the lens one culture journalist who has been covering the entertainment world for years, Nadja Sayej. Featuring celebrities like Lady Gaga, Salma Hayek, Alicia Keys and Paris Hilton, this book features over 100 photos of celebrities, art stars and luminaries, up close and personal, taken between 2011 to 2022. Featuring photos of Sarah Jessica Parker, Marina Abramovic, Naomi Watts, Sofia Coppola, and more, this is a different light than we've seen them through the male gaze. They're not just objects of desire. With behind-the-scenes stories, essays and anecdotes, Sayej hopes to raise awareness of all the women photographers who spend their lives behind the lens—often fighting for their spots on the red carpet, in Hollywood or on the streets of New York. Is a woman paparazzo a more “gentle” photographer than a man? Why are women photographers still overlooked in the entertainment industry? Why don’t we know about more “great women paparazzo” photographers? There are none on the museum walls and so few women photographers become "household names." Why is that? From the art world to film festivals, backstage at concerts, fashion week front row and house parties, this is a backstage pass to the lives of the rich and famous. Consider it a photo diary from someone backstage, even if only for a fleeting moment, tracing the lineage of pop culture in a way we might never see again. “It’s a business of looks, if you don’t look good, you’re a fool.” -Joan Rivers
