People are just so crazy about Beyonce, they invest their actual feelings in her well being, it's baffling to me. What does Beyonce have to do with you?, she doesn't even know you. Don't get me wrong I enjoy her music yes, she is an...

I remember as a young teenager 11-14 reading magazines like People, J14 and all these gossipy magazines. I really don't see how this sort of thing appeals to anyone who is not in the age group.

As if that title wasn't mild enough, I have to express extreme hatred and distaste for the celebrity cults that seem to dominate much of our society and which are destroying culture bit by bit. Shakespeare and science are thrown away in...

I can't understand the sheer amount of insanity that surrounds the celeb worshiping culture. I've run across a couple of famous individuals before and you know what I did? Nothing. Why should I bother someone who's in the middle of...
