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.
