Jade Thirlwall loves her job. Really loves it. She can't wait to wake up and go to work every morning. She loves bonding with her cast mates and making friends through the shared experience of 20-hour workdays and overzealous directors. She loves, adores really, her fans and the passion her characters give them. She loves interacting with her fans and having fun with them. She loves the opportunities that have been presented to her, and the ability to take those opportunities.

Jade Thirlwall absolutely loathes some aspects of it though. She hates the lack of privacy; the inability to go to the grocery store in peace to stock up on emergency tampons and ice cream. She hates that people follow her around, that every outfit she chooses is scrutinized down to the threads. She hates that each of her tweets or comments are dissected and analyzed until even she isn't sure what she had meant. There are dozens of other little nuances that are a side effect of fame that she dislikes, but most of all, Jade Thirlwall loathes photographers.

Sure, in a closed setting they aren't as bad. Still overly enthusiastic, still making her uncomfortable under their scrutiny and pose adjusting, but not that bad overall.

Paparazzi are the worst, though. They always seem to catch her bad side on her worst days. They are the scum she most regularly sees following her around. They are the enablers of the trashy grocery store magazines. The gateway to unflattering pictures that must mean that she's gained weight, or she's hiding a pregnancy, or her drinking is out of control.

But the thing she hates most about them is that they know everything. They are up to date on every interview, every rift, and every little attention-worthy piece of gossip in the industry. If there's one thing Jade likes to be, it is on top of her own story.

She is walking through the terminal at LAX and suddenly a man with the camera corners her and she nearly trips.

"What?" Her tone is tired, and her eyes are hard, but the paparazzo doesn't seem to care, snapping a picture after picture before lowering his camera and smirking up at her.

"What is your reaction to Perrie Edwards' crush on you?" He pulls out a small notebook and poises a pen over it, ready to jot down any reaction she has.

She sighs and looks at her watch, noting that she's already late for her pick up. "Who?"

The man looks up, a confused frown wrinkling his forehead. "Perrie Edwards? The actress? From the movie-"

"No, I know who she is. What are you talking about?"

He grins like the cat just caught the canary. "Her recent Entertainment Weekly interview. Came out earlier this week. You might want to check it out." He snaps another picture and saunters away, leaving Jade standing looking like an idiot.
