Trivia/Previous Episode References[]
- The couch gag, Homer's Evolution couch gag, would remain the longest until Season 26. It is now the second longest at 1 minute and 10 seconds, with the longest being the "Rick and Morty Couch Gag" at 2 minutes and 21 seconds.
- In two other photos, Bart and Lisa appear behind a background of Florida and France, referencing the episodes "Kill the Alligator and Run" and "The Crepes of Wrath", respectively.
- The Simpsons all visited Paris in "Bart-Mangled Banner".
- Marge saying "it was nice of NASA to send you up again" is a reference to when Homer went to space in "Deep Space Homer". Apparently for the re-staged photos, Homer went back up there.
- Good Night - Bart, Lisa and Homer are shown as in Tracey Ullman's Shorts taking place in 1987.
- When the finale viewing party for Star Trek: Voyager is being restaged, Homer holds a pennant that says "space". This references the running gag of Homer holding pennants which was mostly used in the era in which Mike Scully was the showrunner. Star Trek: Voyager ended during in 2001, when Scully was still showrunner.
- The celebrities Homer sees coming out of the Springfield Dry Cleaners are
- Paul McCartney from "Lisa the Vegetarian"
- Gary Coleman from "Grift of the Magi"
- Yao Ming from "Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass"
- Mr. T from "Today, I Am a Clown"
- Elton John from "I'm with Cupid"
- Jimmy Durante (even though he never met Homer as he died in 1980)
- It's possible that Homer met Durante at a very young age prior to Bart's birth.
- JosƩ Canseco from "Homer at the Bat"
- Betty White from "Missionary: Impossible".
- The scene in which Homer jumps out of the helicopter without securing the rope (which Lisa then ties to the chopper) is similiar to when he threw anchor from Springfield Monorail without securing the rope until Bart mentioned it in "Marge vs. the Monorail".
- According to a photo of Homer in the magazine, Homer burned a "jury duty" invitation in order to avoid going to court. Homer would again avoid going to court in "A Tree Grows in Springfield" as his garden is filled with the invitations, though "Itchy and Scratchy: The Movie" revealed that he once got out of jury duty by saying he's prejudiced against all races, and he actually would willingly go to jury duty on "The Boy Who Knew Too Much".
Cultural references[]
- The episode title is a spoof on the word "paparazzi".
- In the couch gag, the tyrannosaurus rex with Bart's face uses the roar of the T-Rex from Jurassic Park and the stegosaurus with Lisa's face uses Godzilla's roar.
- Sideshow Mel eating the flag is a reference to Futurama, when Dr. Zoidberg ate the flag.
- Paris Texan is an obvious parody of Paris Hilton.
- In the "Happy 1987" photo, which Marge takes after their family album was destroyed, Bart, Lisa and Homer look just like they were drawn in The Tracey Ullman Show.
- The song played during the sequence of Marge re-taking the family pictures is "Freeze-frame" by the J. Geils Band.
- The song also played at the end of Home Away from Homer in Season 16.
Goofs[]
- The title should be Homerazzo because Homerazzi is plural and there is only one Homerazzo.
- In one scene, the family vehicle colors were inverted: Homer's pink sedan was papaya-red while Marge's papaya-red station wagon was pink.
- Betty White asks Homer about his family, even though she never met them and therefore wouldn't understand who they are. (The Simpsons likely have a life off camera so maybe they met her off camera. Plus, she was in "Missionary: Impossible", where she may have seen data about Homer's family when his identity was revealed by Instatrace).
- In the comeuppance scene Drederick Tatum appears White/Yellow for a second and then the next cut to him he is Black again.
