In the vibrant world of Grand Theft Auto V, the “Paparazzo” missions offer a thrilling glimpse into the cutthroat realm of celebrity photography. Join Franklin Clinton as he teams up with Beverly Felton, a relentless paparazzo, to capture the most scandalous shots in Los Santos. From high-speed chases to exclusive scoops, navigate the challenges of this mission series to achieve 100% completion and unlock the secrets of GTA V’s dynamic universe.
Availability: Franklin
Location: You need to talk to Beverly, who is a paparazzo. You can find him in the West Vinewood district, and more precisely next to the stairs to the right of the building shown in the above screenshot.
Your task is to ensure Beverly with the opportunity to photograph Miranda Cowan – a celebrity who is travelling on a limo. Run up to the bike (Shitzu PCJ 600), wait for the paparazzo to join up with you and follow the limo. According to Beverly’s instructions, you need to ride parallel to the limo (the above screenshot) and, for obvious reasons, it is a good idea to use time-slowing here(still, you should leave some of the special skill bar filled for later). You get opportunity to take a picture at three different moments and, it is worthwhile to make sure that Beverly takes all three opportunities to take a picture.
Knocking Madison off requires getting close to his bike.
Towards the end of the mission, the limo with the celebrity in it will also be chased by a competitor paparazzo – Madison. Just like earlier, you need to get right next to your target, this time to enable Beverly to knock his opponent off his bike. The only left thing for you to do now is take Beverly to a nearby parking lot.
Rewards for the completion of the mission:
- New contact to Franklin’s contact list added: Beverly
- Shitzu PCJ 600
Requirements for the completion of the mission in 100%:
- Smack Down – you need to enable Beverly to knock Madison off his bike at first take. I strongly recommend that you use time slowing skill to position yourself perfectly next to the bike of the competitor.
- Picture Perfect – You need to make sure that Beverly takes a picture of Miranda three times.
