Jessica Simpson's BFF, hairstylist Ken Paves, has been injured by paparazzi outside a Los Angeles restaurant Madeo on Saturday.
Simpson and Paves were exiting the establishment when photographers swarmed the 28-year-old. The hairstylist tried to protect his friend when a snapper accidentally struck him in the face with his camera.
Paves had blood running down his injured face as he and the singer got into their ride. He was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
No charges have been filed.
The pair are also business partners since 2006 when they launched a line of clip-on hair extensions for HairUWear company.
