I feel like there's something interesting to learn from anyone's story, no matter their place in society. I think we've gotten really far away from that - we're in such a celebrity-obsessed culture.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The whole celebrity culture thing - I'm fascinated by, and repelled by, and yet I end up knowing about it.
We live in a celebrity-obsessed society.
The culture of celebrity has become insane. It's all based on fantasy, and I find it creepy and disturbing.
Why are we so obsessed with celebrity culture? We have front-page news about divorces instead of front-page news about global warming, about women being abused, about children being abused. We're going on a downward spiral.
I think we know too much about actors as it is and their personal lives and it's this information age where we're stimulated constantly by the celebrity buzz effect or whatever it is, these web sites and blogs and different things.
Most of the stories I read are about my Hollywood pedigree.
The celebrity sense of writers is something which is very tempting... But the enthusiasm comes from the fact that it's such a natural activity, storytelling.
Celebrity culture is something that pains me.
We obsess about celebrities. We create them, build myths around them, and then hunt them and destroy them. I don't know where it's taking us or what it means, but I know we do it. I have seen a lot of it myself.
People don't find the personal lives of people with much, much more power than any celebrity would have - don't find their personal lives interesting.
