They whine and cry when they have their lives exposed for all to see, but without that exposure they are afraid that they will blow away in the wind like dust particles...Disgusting.

Most sickening is having to hear CONSTANTLY of their political views, like I am going to vote for Joe Schmoo just because "such and such celebrity" has given this person their approval - last time I looked I was a two degree college grad with HIS OWN MIND and who can develop his OWN OPINIONS without some publicity seeking cesspool dwelling media seeking EGOMANIAC trying to TELL ME who and why I should vote someone in particular...If you want my opinion on celebs and their political opinions, do your self a favor and go watch the movie "Team America"

The word "celebrity" comes from the word "celebrate" - And I'll be DAMNED if I will "celebrate" ANY of these walking pieces of ****.

I wouldn't mind it so much if the celebrity had a background in something besides acting, music, etc. Unfortunately, few of them do. I mean, if a Russian celebrity said "vote for so and so, because the other guy sounds like the guys back in Soviet Russia" all fine and well and we could learn from his experience. Or, if a celebrity has advanced studies in economics or something, then what they say is grounded in something. Maybe a celebrity ran a business, etc. Someone like Baldwin, Whoopi Goldberg or Clooney who haven't done anything else and really have no other experience to offer should shut up. Or people like Oprah, who are talk show hosts, should stop fancying themselves "spiritual advisors" or role models. They are talk show hosts and there is nothing wrong with just being one. After watching that whole "American Prayer" thing, I don't know how anyone can take these people seriously anymore.
