   The day after the night before

The night before was a raucous affair and come to think of it, it was a wonder anyone actually made it to the start. Eve arrived looking quite serene; she dropped her guard four hours later revealing her pink thong.

The following morning fresh faced and ready to rock Eve and her co/partner were ready to face the world and were the first to leave. Wearing less jewels than the previous year Eve was keeping a low profile. ‘It was an emotional send off.’ said an observer.

    Why paparazzi ‘called time’ on Thriller?

Thriller Live celebrated its  thousand performance however not everything went according to plan wit regards  to the press.

Shortly after these pictures were taken paparazzi walked out on the job leaving the show with the liklihood of limited exposure in the press.

Despite  so many events taking place on the same day the fact that at least eight photographers attended the event was a good result. However following what has to be the statement of  the year photographers downed tools and  walked.

“We simply had to call  time on Thriller Live following the comments made by  the front-desk .” said a  snapper.

“We were told aggresively that celebrities were  here to  see the play and not to do pictures so we all left, most of  us didn’t even bother to send in our pictures to the agencies.

“We can only conclude that Thriller Live does not need any  extra exposure in the press.”

Another photographer  said: “Why bother to  inform media agencies on which  celebrities were coming if they don’t want press.”

Patrick Allan from the Drifters who attended the after party at Planet  Hollywood said: “When I came to the  show last year there were so  many  photographers. Those comments should not  have been made, it does not make sense.”

Thriller Live had to compete on the day with events such as JLS video launch, Rebbecca Furguson at the Grosvenor, Paul Smith fragrance launch and Alexandra Burke at Mahike.

“Photographers will only go to events in which there is a strong likelihood that they can sell  in pictures. In reality Thriller is classified as niche market.” said Mark Weir from  Flyer Newspaper.
