When I look to the television for some sort of entertainment, I am amazed at who is considered "celebrity" these days.
It used to be that someone could actually sing and play and instrument, or act. But for the amount of attention drawn to "reality" show people that have been made into this strange "celebrity" like the Kardashians, Jon and Kate and Octomom...and other such "stars" like Heidi Montag and her extremely talented actor/husband Spencer...(gag,cough, barf) I ask, "Where do they dig these people up?" Why are these people considered "celebrities" and why does it seem that anybody gives a crap about these idiots?
I consider that some of these drones and clones are created in a lab and are thrown into the public just to see if anybody notices or cares that these people are not actors, cannot sing and have no other considerable marketing skills but that of tabloidish nonsense.
I think the bottom line is such exposure of such buffoons is that the system keeps telling the public that these people are interesting and are worth talking about. If the people hear that these people are interesting enough times, they'll start to believe they are really talented.
A great example is that Justin Timberlake is the hottest guy ever and the best singer ever. Give me a break.
If the public hears that crap has started to smell good often enough, they'll start to believe that crap actually does smell good!!

And, for the sake of duping the masses. Take one of these "reality stars" such as Heidi Montag...who people may have heard about and maybe had some idea of what she looked like, take her out of the spotlight for a time, and replace her, and when the imposter comes back, they make the big stink "Hey, she's had alot of plastic surgery"

This phenomonen as well as the whole history of civilazation can be explained by ONE WORD-------BRANDING!!! These celebrities, Paul Mccartney, Modonna, Cheyrl Crow etc. etc. etc. are not people they are brands or trademarks!! That is why they can continually switch the people around but the brand stays the same. Tiger Woods and Haite are having thier brand repositioned,lol. The major problem with that to me is they lie, they don't have the decency to explain it to the masses. All they would have to do is put a little r with a circle around it by the name indicating a registered trademark of people that were replaced and maybe a number indicating how many times,lol.

Hotman, I agree about the branding, but I would say that, in some cases, the original talented, charismatic person was switched out, so that that the popularity could be exploited. Some of them, at least, were real people, & what happened to them really is tragic.

Fauxster you are right they are real people. What I ment is that LEGALY the names Paul Mccartney, Madonna are not owned by the people themsevles but by the corporations. When the corporations think it is time for a change they replace the PERSON but keep the same brand or trademark. The masses are fooled because it is hard to believe how much The Powers That Be lie,lol.

Fauxster you are right they are real people. Agreed. Except maybe some of them aren't really real people. Yikes!

Agree, once more, it looks like the pics with pre-surgery JORDAN have gone with the wind. I found this one, still she already had a boob job (probably her 1st), but still nothing done to her face (I hope). She looks like FAMERON FIAZ here.

True, put her a blonde wig on and she will make no difference. Here's a couple more from the time when she was still herself (xcept the tits in the 1st pic lol).
