Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler will attend a legislative hearing on Friday in Hawaii in relation to a bill that holds his name and would limit people's freedom to take photos and videos of celebrities. 

The state's Senate Judiciary Committee will consider the so-called Steven Tyler Act on Friday morning and will discuss the bill publicly for the first time, according to The Associated Press.

A publicist for the rocker said Tyler submitted written testimony supporting the proposal, which would ultimately allow people to collect damages from someone who photographs them in an offensive way during their private lives. Other celebrities who have submitted testimony supporting the bill include Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Neil Diamond, Tommy Lee and the Osborne family.

"The paradise of Hawaii is a magnet for celebrities who just want a peaceful vacation," Tyler said in a statement emailed to the AP. "As a person in the public eye, I know the paparazzi are there and we have to accept that. But when they intrude into our private space, disregard our safety and the safety of others, that crosses a serious line that shouldn't be ignored."

Testimonies by more than dozen celebrities supporting the bill include the same text. 

Tyler owns a multimillion-dollar home in Maui. More than two-thirds of the state senators have co-sponsored the bill but opponents said it might be unconstitutional, according to Newser.
