Not sure enforcing is the right word to use. But I agree that the power of the celebrities on the younger generation is powerful. TV is a powerful medium. And having these girls walking on the catwalk with a skeleton of a Zombie is definitely sending the wrong message to our kids.

I actually was lucky because when I was young I was somewhat of a "celebrity" myself for a short while (musician in a known band), a very short while but got to mingle with a lot of "bigger" celebrities than I. The funny thing is this: when you "think" you belong in the same "club" and they (the celebrities) do too it's like you've known each other all your life (you have no clue who the hell they really are and the same for them about you), you're on a first name basis, party like you are buddies. But when "fame" fades (either way) then you lose touch. Personally I was always myself, no pretention and never snotty with others. Looking back, celebrity is just the fact that there are more people that know your name today than there were yesterday and tomorrow as many will forget it so when I meet a celebrity these days (and I do, my girlfriend was a PA to a well known singer and worked for Sony, NY and keeps in touch with a lot of people) I just say hello the same way I would my neighbor. They are only people and want the same things I want: peace, privacy and respect.

It is because of the inflated self- sexual image that they have and is fed well by the fans...\nparticularly if both parties are celebrities, nobody in the world can bring them down to earth !!

Sure, its their right to support ideals they believe in, but celebrity status should not be used as a reason to listen, or a platform to voice nonsense. Image should not take place of content.

this is the influence of media and sponsorships. when the player you idol is seen sporting a particular brand of clothes, as a fan, you would want to get it. secondly, its human nature to want to look good, even when you're losing. well for those true sports fans or players, it really doesn't matter what you wear, its the attitude. i've always believe that its not the tools that make a player but its his own heart and attitude to the sport.

Wow...ummm, how does this affect my life?  There are so many other things I could do with my time than worry about what a bunch of egotistical, attention craving "celebrities" say or do to one another.  Who cares?

I believe all citizens have the right to voice their opinions including celebrities.  Unfortunately, most celebrities in America are not very well educated and have not even completed a university degree.  This leaves them with a loud voice and little analytical skills to understand the complex issues which we all face.

I'm sure it's difficult for some of them. But these people are actors, and it's their job to pretend they're something they're not. Some may agree with the messages of the movies and others might not. I guess it really depends on who you're talking about.

I dont believe that anyone on here, who says they are a celeb, really is. If they were a real celeb they sure wouldnt be telling people when they ask a question, celebs dont care that they are a celeb, like fans care. So there fore they wouldnt be flaunting it.

I also enjoy watching celebrities gain weight, but then again  I am happy for them to lose the weight. I don't think it makes you a bad person or  anything, it;s just kinda fun to poke fun at them every now and then. I'm sure (celebrities) they do the same amongst themselves, competing against who has the best bod etc.

Honestly do celebrities need award shows? I mean they make millions of dollars a year, so why do we have award shows for these people? Is it just so that they can feel glorified? I wish someone would have an award show for me, and where I work.

Good point. Well, celebrities have big egos and they want to look good for the media. So, they make a big deal about these dinners,auctions,etc. for all to see. Plus, celebrities like hanging out with each other. They gossip and see who's been having screwing who and who's been anorexic and smoking crack. Yea, that's what they do.

They absolutely got what they asked for! How can you put down your core fan base and not expect repercussions? It's just another example of entertainers who get a swollen head and think that their opinions are golden and that people will forgive anything they do or say. They have committed political suicide...they just don't they are dead yet.
