The one about The Bizarreness of Celebrities

Lets start this party with a list of people that I can not logically find a reason why they are famous. Deal? Well you actually have no choice. 

Here they are:
Paris Hilton
Jamie Lynn Spears
Tila Tequila
Mel Gibson
Pamela Anderson
Ashton Kutcher
Zac Efron
Andrew Dice Clay
Rosie O'Donnell
The entire cast of MTV's "The Hills"

And thats just my short list! I keep my full list in my bathroom. For some reason the smell of my toilet reminds me of these kind of people. You'll notice this list includes people who have been in movies. Shouldn't they just be famous because of their movies? You'll also notice, after a little detective work, that those movies are horrid.  So the answer to your question is no. Stop questioning me. The above list of people are undeniably famous. However they are also undeniably some of the most talentless people on this planet. The first three alone are famous because of either being a drunk slut, being pregnant and severely underage, and finally Myspace. Bizarre eh? Why do we slobber over people who would likely fail the U.S. citizenship test? The above people that were in films are famous for acting like other people. How ridiculous is that?! I also think it is comical that at some point each year celebrities leave their mansions (some even put on underwear for the first time since they last bought a calender) to give awards to each other for a job well done. Another thing that is so crazy to me is that it is always us and them. They are famous, they are rich, THEY. We forget they are normal people. I don't recall who, because I don't care, but some celebrity blew her nose on a late show last week and the tissue is being auctioned on eBay. Thats a knee slapper. However I hear because of the recession shot-filled tissue display boxes are on sale. How do you brag about that? "I just bought Brad Pitt's tissue. It's on the mantel. Check it out." After that phrase is uttered your sanity level drops 10%. Come on people. Get over celebrities.
