That’s why she was the driving force behind the new California state law that will allow celebs to file civil suits against photogs!

After spending much of her career followed by flashing bulbs, Jennifer Aniston decided to take a stand and became “instrumental” in having Assembly Bill 524 passed.

Aniston rounded up a group of her famous friends to speak with Assembly Speaker Karen Bass, and their unity against the problem inspired her to write the bill.

Specifically, the law allows “for civil penalties against members of the paparazzi and media outlets that sell and buy unlawfully obtained photographs and video footage of people, including celebrities and their families.” The law goes into effect tomorrow.

Lawyer up photogs! We know you won’t be giving up that easily!
