Subject: Why are people so obsessed with celebs?

I'm not a big fan of gossip, so I avoid 'People'. 'Hello', and similar magazines, and TV shows like 'Entertainment Tonight'. However, judging from the threads that pop up on this board, the cult of celebrity is alive and well, and we do all sorts of speculating here about the lives of people we don't really know anything about, except that they are famous for one reason or another.
One or two of the threads on this board make some very nasty comments about people like Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie, and I'll lay dollars to doughnuts that the OP doesn't know anything about either of these women except what he or she reads in magazines, gleans from TV gossipy shows or on the internet.

That was completely unintended, haha, it's supposed to be a face of shock or whatever, NOT certain assets, haha. Although, both get the point across about her! :P Reply #21. Apr 15 10, 9:43 AM |

That's right, Cym! And Paris is the capital of France. Brittany is a region in the same country. :-) Reply #25. Apr 22 10, 9:13 PM |

I feel celebraty gosup is a complete and total time waister! I could personally care less as to what happens in Angilina Jolee's life and to hear that she has adopted her 20th child or that something happened between Sandra Bulicc and her husband. The average person has children and has relationship problems evry day. People's problems don't get publicized on T.V. or on the internet. Reply #28. May 17 10, 1:12 PM |

@beachbumb101 You're right about that! All that gossip is just too much for one person to handle. This is what causes so much drama in the first place. Just take gossip out of everyone's lifestyle, and we will be in a much happier world. :) Reply #29. Jun 28 14, 6:44 AM |
