Pap Calls Madonna's Camp Liars

MadonnaThe paparazzo who claims he was the only pap around when Madonna fell off her horse on Saturday says he isn't to blame for her fall -- and he claims Madonna's peeps are straight up lying about what went down.

We spoke with the photog who tells us he shot Madonna before and after she fell -- but was not there for the actual fall. He tells us he took pics of her riding and then left. About 30 minutes later, he says he got a tip about an ambulance being sent out for a 50-year-old woman -- so he put two and two together and went back to snap pics of her being tended to.

He says all his photos were taken from a public road and the only other photog around was Stephen Klein -- the famous photographer whose house Madonna was at.

As Hinton put it, "If I had startled the horse, I would have gotten pictures!"

92. Oh come on. They follow this woman around where ever she goes. Day and Night. 24/7. Suddenly when she gets hurts they arent there? Seriously? Liar liar pants on fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im sure they have the pictures though just that they arent going to show anyone. They could go to jail. Duh. Im not Madonna fan but the paps dont care about people's safety. They chase people down in their cars and on the street. Yet we are supposed to believe they are innocent in this case. Sorry no. Not buying it.

93. Madonna is just covering the fact she cannot ride to save her life, I have seen her ride before, and as an accomplished rider myself and former riding instructor, she is a beginner- at best. Money can buy you nice horses, but it cannot make you a great rider. Just look at Marley Goodman...

96. Don't worry that foolish paparazzi destroyed the evidence that he spooked the horse. He likely DID spook the horse trying for those photos he destroyed. But then he found out he may be responsible for a big settlement and destroyed the photos. The police should confiscate all his equipment and send it to an FBI lab for deep penetration testing for those destroyed photos. This is very similar to the flat tires Britney and Paris had on hard concrete streets in high dollar automobiles. That does not happen folks. Some nut case paparazzi flattened those tires to get PHOTOS

100. TMZ, You and the rest of the media should not have been so gullible. I knew from the get-go that Liz Rosenberg's statement about the paparazzi startling the horse was B.S. How would the paparazzi have access to a private estate in the Hamptons? Also, if there were photographers shooting Madonna when she fell, don't you think those photos would have been all over the internet within minutes?!? TMZ, you should be embarrassed that you did not even express the slightest bit of of skepticism about Rosenberg's statement, and you were conned.

104. what's up with the negative vibes people?? yeah, madonna is 50 years old, but dang that doesn't mean she still can't be a great performer and singer. she still has sell out tours, she still has #1 singles and she's still on top of her game. she can't even break wind anymore that people don't start bashing her. it's pathetic.

105. Was Madonna really riding the horse or was she trying to have the horse ride her? I've seen that act in Mexico. No wonder Madonna got bucked off. The horse didn't want to get a veneral disease from that slut. That is called Animal abuse to have Madonna ride a horse with all of her stinkiness between her legs.
