Ban celebrity camera shots at sporting events. Just ban them.
OK. Maybe don’t completely ban them. They’re fun sometimes, but mostly when the people the cameras are pointing to are actually expecting it. Otherwise, we tend to run up on some pretty awkward moments.
Josh Allen just found that out the hard way at the Padres-Phillies game on Wednesday night.
Allen and his girlfriend, Brittany Williams, were taking a regular ol’ selfie in their suite at the game. Williams is making the classic duckface. Allen is just cheesing because, duh, that’s what you have to do as the spouse. Allen knows that. He’s a selfie pro. Gotta make it nice for Instagram.
Anyway, they’re taking their picture. Then, BOOM. Just like that, FOX has a camera on them mid-selfie. We got this shot from it.

It’s fine. It’s cool. They didn’t even really know this happened. But y’all know how it gets when someone walks in on you taking a selfie. It’s awkward. Nobody likes that. The picture is literally ruined even if it’s not.
This time, though, it’s literally a national broadcast just peeking in on the extremely vulnerable mid-selfie moment. RUDE.
Hopefully, the picture came out nicely.
