Thus, celebrities have to give up some privacy when choosing to do something that puts them in the spotlight.However, I strongly feel that celebrities _______ to be protected from the media. Firstly, celebrities do have the right to privacy, just like any other person. Although they may seek to be known, this doesn't mean that the media is justified to _______ every detail of their private lives.

In attempting to maintain their image, celebrities may repress rage, fear or sadness caused by negative or excessive media coverage. Sometimes, if they are pushed too far, they may also _______ aggressive responses.On balance, I believe that celebrities have the right to say No to the media when their privacy is subject to unwanted intrusion (侵扰).
