WILL FERRELL - FERRELL'S PLEA FOR PRESS ATTENTION

FERRELL'S PLEA FOR PRESS ATTENTION

Hollywood funnyman WILL FERRELL is insulted the paparazzi aren't interested in him and even begged a snapper to take his picture during a recent trip to London. The OLD SCHOOL star is left alone by the media in his native America, and confesses he would love to sample life as a hounded superstar. He tells Total Film magazine, "They don't care about me. Not in America, at least. "But a weird thing happened in London, last year. I was strolling around with my wife and child. We were curious to see if anyone would notice or even care that I was there. Suddenly, this photographer just kind of materialised and went 'click'. Then he ran away." Ferrell admits he even called after him saying: "Hey! It's okay! Make me more famous!" He adds, "It was just one guy. I was appalled and insulted. I wanted to know where the others were hiding."
