At least, no swarm of 50 photogs hovering around their car, etc.

Of course, we're not a dense walkable city like NYC, and there aren't any huge street-shopping districts like in L.A. here either, so you're also less likely to see a celeb WALKING anywhere in Atlanta.
I grew up in NYC and seen allot of stars myself, lets see, William Griffin aka Rakim was in my 6th through 8th grade class. LL Cool J we went to so many cookouts out in Dix Hills NY too much fun. Mike Tyson, Dana Dan, Darryl Mitchel aka Chili Dog-cousin to my son on his dad side of the family, Dr. Dre, Mike Spinks-too many times-Erica Cane aka Susan Lucci, 50 cent the list can go on forever, but during all these times I dont recall the paparazzi element. My spouse did 16 years for NYPD and he did bodyguard work for P, Diddy, Leonardo DiCaprio , Sylvester Stallone, still no paparazzi,

I have seen here in the ATL Emmanauel Lewis and another actor (can remember the name) from Law and Order.

Growing up knowing allot of famous people I have never been star struck though maybe this is why I just dont recall the paparazzi elements
