Unless you have some reason to believe that those dozens are typical of celebrities in general and it's as easy to get pictures of the rest as it is to get pictures of those, it proves nothing.
It was claimed that we can not get free pictures of celebs that don't visit award events, at least without stalking. I pointed out free pictures of celebs (some of which do not visit award events) which were, presumably, created without stalking.
I never argued that it was easy, only that it being hard doesn't make it necessarily impossible.
That's nitpicking tiny nuances of wording in conversational English.
He could very well mean that it's impossible for most celebrities, not for every celebrity in existence.
It's obviously possible to get free pictures of *some* celebrities, but given a random celebrity, that random celebrity is probably not one of them.
