Hey did you all know that in 2010, Entourage’s Adrian Grenier filmed a documentary about a teenage Paparazzo? Yeah, me neither. I’m very intrigued by the premise of this. In Teenage Paparazzo Grenier, the star of HBO’s Entourage, gets behind the camera to explore the concepts of celebrity and fame in today’s ultra-mediated society, befriending a 13 year old paparazzo along the way. He interviews celebrities and scholars to learn from their experiences. The film’s unique perspective raises pertinent concerns on what it means to be famous in America, and more importantly, why and how people consume popular culture.
The Teenage Paparazzo Empowerment Tour encourages a dialogue among educators, students, theorists and local press on the effects of media in our modern society. Adrian Grenier will appear at some of the tour stops. The tour also includes an art exhibition where many of the ideas and themes of the film are further examined. Viewers can experience artwork by Shepard Fairy, Tim Kent, Banksy, and even Adrian Grenier. “Making this film was a life changing experience,” said Adrian Grenier. “Education is an important issue for me and I am happy to combine themes from the film in a tour that will enlighten students around the country in a grassroots way.”

Friday evening, HBO presents the perfect tonic for a lousy week: Mel Brooks and Dick Cavett: Together Again!
Mel Brooks, purveyor of fine comedy [Blazing Saddles, The Producers], and one of the best talk show hosts ever, Dick Cavett, get together for this one-hour special to share show-business memories and hilarious stories with loyal fans and a new generation of viewers.
As a fan of both, this works for me. Follow the jump for three brief, but very funny excepts.
