I don't usually care what celebrities say, but if the celebrity in question is Britney Spears and what she is saying is "FP, I'd like to sit on your face" then I would take a keen interest rather quickly.

Obviously they are entitled to a opinion. That their opinions are printed and broadcasted is probably due to the fact that celebs sells, some more than others. Tabloid papers are filled with short texts about the most uninteresting things about them so why not print this **** as well?
There's some people that will believe anything their so called heroes tell them. However I doubt it has any real influence beyond the lumpenproletariat that doesn't matter anyway.
Probably it helps the celebs with their egos in some way. I don't think any apolytoners for example or people in general are really affected what they say. People might however see it as positive feedback when a celeb argees with them. In turn that might help their careers if it makes them more popular, if that's the case here is another question though.Comment

I'm just worried to hear that The West Wing's ratings are slipping. That's not good."Paul Hanson, you should give Gibraltar back to the Spanish" - Paiktis, dramatically over-estimating my influence in diplomatic circles.

The root word for actor is the same as the word for hypocrite. I usually do not give much heed to what hyocrites say. My father is a ww2 veteran and he is opposed to the war as are many (if not most) ww2 veterans still living. I do give heed to their opinions.Comment

Obviously, celebrities have the right to express their opinions just like everybody else. However, they are just opinions, not based on anything. Can anyone honestly tell me that Martin Sheen or Janeanne Garofolo know more about the real world than Collin Powell or the President of the US who receive real info from the intelligence community?'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

It does not appear that GWB or Powell knows more, if Powell's presentation at the UN is anything to judge by.Originally posted by The diplomat

Good idea! If Janeanne Garofolo took her shirt off, then I'd be far more likely to listen to her.Originally posted by Spectator
