Celebrities: Caught on Camera is a celebrity's worst nightmare. Armed with a video camcorder and a single, blinding light, the makers of this videotape troll places where they are likely to catch bleary, irritated celebrities looking and sometimes acting their worst.

The majority of the footage is shot in true paparazzi fashion in places like health clubs, on the streets, and in airports. Does anyone, famous or not, really want a camera shoved in their face after 10 hours on an airplane? One can hardly blame the subjects of this video for being annoyed. You may even find yourself cheering a bit for Tommy Lee when he takes a slug at a particularly vile cameraman after a night on the town.

The sight of movie stars hiding their faces and yelling at the cameraperson will soon grow tedious to even the most die-hard Pamela Anderson or Leonardo DiCaprio fan. Celebrities: Caught on Camera crosses the line between public personas and private life repeatedly, though uninterestingly, in what amounts to the video equivalent of the National Enquirer. --Michelle Riggen

1.0 out of 5 stars Hardly Provocative, December 21, 1999

By A Customer

I really expected more from this video-after all it has the motherload of naked celebrity babes-Jenny, Pam, Carmen, Shannon, and others. But you know what-I was completely bored watching this thing and sincerely wish that I had not bought it.

Pam Anderson's footage looks to be about 10 years old (the way she looks in this video is consistent with her more natural appearance back then)-that's not the problem however. Her scenes, along with the others, are just not erotic or exciting period. Carmen Electra only appears nude in still photographs, while her only motion picture appearance is in a bra and short skirt singing some silly song.

Guys, forget this one. Shania Twain videos turn me on alot more than this thing did. You want a provactive (yet tasteful) PB video? Go buy "Girls Next Door" (very, very erotic) or the "Karen McDougal Playmate of the Year " video (the most gorgeous playmate ever in my opinion).

2.0 out of 5 stars Overall, a disappointment, March 17, 2000

By A Customer

With the exception of the Donna D'Errico segment, not worth it. If you're looking for any of these particular women, I would recommend trying another title. Most, if not all, are on several. The Carmen Electra bit is the low point, a total waste of disk space.

4.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat unusual "cast" but overall a great DVD for fans of celebs in the buff, June 29, 2005

By	Jason Dickson "Needs More Money" (Maryville, TN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a "Greatest Hits" compilation of clips from videos featuring famous celebrities who posed for Playboy. Duh. The clips are well chosen and very steamy. Best for me were Pam Anderson (pre-plastic surgeon and Tommy Lee - alright!), Jessica Hahn (a true sex goddess), Carmen Electra (who knew the video was actually way better than the song?) and Jenny McCarthy (she never, ever got as sexy on screen as she did here and that's a shame, IMHO).

The downside here is (of course) some of the music. If you've seen a few of these Playboy vids you'll know what I'm talking about. Some of the music can be downright cheesy in attempting to catch the heart of these segments. But hey, that's what the Mute button is for so my complaint is again a small one. Interesting note: some of the scenes here are more surreal than what you'll see in the Hellcats in High Heels video (no doubt because Playboy has a bigger budget.)

Sometimes the weirdness works (Jessica Hahn's quite steamy segment) and sometimes it don't (poor Erika Eleniak's near laughable segment). But you have to give some credit to a video that makes LaToya Jackson look sexy (her segment is way too cute too). So if you only buy or rent one Playboy video in your life (or you've already bought or rented Shagalicious British Babes and are looking for more heat from Hefner's hotties) make it this one.
