<< and one of the snappers mentions that he's seen that one celeb or another had been 'papped' the other day (for whatever reason). I asked: 'Papped'???? 'Yeah, you know, staked out by photographers'. Ahhh, 'papped' I thought. Short for 'Paparazzi'd'. He was using it as a verb! He could (and obviously would) 'pap' me! I could 'pap' someone. It's actually descended through the jargon hierarchy, and plopped out of the bottom as a verb. Don't you love it? Now I hear it all the time. Papped! Have you been papped recently? >> Steve. For a short while, that was my gig. I was a "pap". Sneaking thru hotel kitchens, etc. Best shot? Prince Charles scratching his ***. In Paris Match about 15 yrs ago...............
