Why are people preoccupied with celebs???
 
My point of view is that most if not all celebs are in fact quite fucked up, why would anyone want to be interested in what goes on in their lives???

Why would anyone idolize someone who plays make believe for a living???

Why do little girls want to be like Britney Spears?? I mean she walks into a public restroom at a service station barefoot. FUNGUS!!!

I am curious as to who your idols are and why you put them there.

My idols and or heros were always historical figures that never really had anything to do with entertainment.

i have no idols.
the one or two people i admire are personal friends who have admirable qualities (remain decent under extreme adversity...etc)


most people admire celebrities because they represent something they dont have .. beauty, wealth, power, admiration.
(kind of the snake eating its tail isnt it)

sometimes they admire the skill of the craft (artist, actor, musician)- which is easier to understand .. but for the majority - its so they can live vicariously through the exploits of someone they could never be.

I only have one person I idolize and it's not because he's rich,famous,admired ect. it's because I want to be a writer for a living and make movies and he's been doing it forever and has done it very well,. As for who he's dating,been married to,likes to eat out at and all that other garbage I could care less.

what's wrong with that?

3) Nobody cares about ugly people. Johnny Depp is hawT with a capital T. "HawTuhh"
