When I saw the title of this thread, I wondered if it had anything to do with horses.
[Would it be inappropriate for me to mention that the paparazzi contributed to Princess Di's death, as well as countless other incidents involving celebrities? Though I suppose it was really the drunk driver's fault in this case.]

On a side note, I find it strange that my name is Ellen and Portia is on my mental list of names for a baby girl. [In about fifteen years, of course.]

I remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky

Ironic that the woman was driving a 2002 Carrera and they were in a 2006 Carrera. Maybe the car was jealous of the hot new model infringing on its turf.

I smell some lawsuits heading Ellen's way. The guy in the car in front of her kept holding his head.

Was that Nancy Sinatra at the end?

I live about only a few blocks from this, and I left work around 3PM that day and headed home.

Glad I wasn't near it when it happened!

I hope everyone's okay, and that stupid woman who denied her alcohol test is prosecuted. I love how she says they just stopped short in front of her. EXACTLY, lady, which is why you should back off when you're driving behind someone (oh, and while intoxicated). You're SUPPOSED to assume that the car in front of you might stop short at any moment, for any reason and plan your distance accordingly. She's an idiot trying to use that as her excuse.

jimnysf, my dad was recently in the middle of a chain collision crash. While you DO have to work out the insurance issues with each car's separate company (the person in front and the person in back), in the end, it's all still regarded as the fault of the person in the back.

It's really F*CKed up that even in the midst of a car crash, the paparazzi guys are still more obsessed with "getting the shot" than the actual problem. I guess the bright side is that with the sale of this video, they probably have enough to buy a new car now...
