Well, I never said she was stupid, or the other people who read gossip magazines. And she probably would have gotten the same drink at Starbucks, actually. She lived those mags. She also worked and went to school. I said I don't understand why they care about what celebs are doing. It doesn't affect them personally. I don't care what the person who lives three blocks away is doing/wearing/saying either - unless it's going to harm the neighborhood (or other people) in some way.
That Rachel haircut? You don't think people wanted it not because it was cute but because they thought it would make them more like Rachel? It didn't look good on many people - but it was the thing of the moment. It's like advertising ... buy this car in the ad, and that sexy woman who's sitting inside is going to want you bad. Follow this diet, and you'll have those abs to show off on the beach, just like this guy.
I know we've wrangled about this before. I'm just not into celeb culture, I don't understand the attraction to it.
* The idolizing. Maybe I'm just deficient in that understanding.
I also don't understand upper level chemistry.
And I guess I won't comment on any more threads regarding celebrities, as it seems to make a kerfuffle.
* There *are* people I'd like to meet, who might be famous in some way, who've had great achievements in different fields. Pick their brains about why they've done certain things, chosen certain roles, how they process information and then proceed with their findings, how they maintain focus on reaching their goals ... writers, scientists, actors, dancers, sociologists - a lot of interesting people out there. But I don't care what they're wearing, or dating, or where they're vacationing.
