Poll: Do you think celebrities should take selfies with fans?

Posting to social media means stars’ locations can be revealed within seconds.

CELEBRITIES ARE OFTEN asked to pose with fans when out and about, but it can mean that stars are revealing their location.

Emma Watson told Vanity Fair magazine that she won’t let fans take a selfie with her because when they post it to social media they create a marker of exactly where she is within 10 metres.

“They can see what I’m wearing and who I’m with. I just can’t give that tracking data.”

So in today’s poll we’re asking, do you think celebrities should take selfies with fans?
