Aerosmith's Steven Tyler just wants his Hawaiian privacy, man

To be fair, The Steven Tyler Act (which hopefully won’t encourage Tyler to start acting again) would be a step up from the California law in that it would prohibit photographers from using long-range lenses or other devices to capture celebrities during instances when they might have a reasonable expectation of privacy. For example, when they’re in their vacation homes or lazily snorkeling in a Speedo.

Tyler and Fleetwood Mac’s Mick Fleetwood were on hand at a hearing held today in Hawaii in support of the bill, which reportedly already has the backing of two-thirds of the Senate. While both the National Press Photographers Association and the Motion Picture Association Of America have come out against it, there are also a number of other celebrities who have spoken out in favor, including Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Tommy Lee, and the Osbournes.
