I was drinking Sprite. THANKS A LOT.
Anyways, forgive me if I'm not entirely coherent since my brain is gone today, but basically (and I think I've said this before but now that there's a thread for it, here it is again): there are a lot of celebrities that I think are
physically attractive, but... well, that's it. I've only seen the glitz and Hollywood glamour and the scandals. Celebrities are not "real" to me. Of course they
are real and have feelings just like other people, but we don't "know" them. All we see of them aside from their made-up modeling/acting/singing/TV hosting/okay seriously what does Paris Hilton
do I really don't know selves is "NICOLE RICHIE ATE A HAMBURGER!" and "BRAD AND ANGELINA -- THIS ONE'S FROM YUGOSLAVIA!" articles, blurry photos, misconstrued quotes from interviews and the like.
But we see fictional characters when they're sad, we see them when they're happy, we see them when they're jealous and scheming for all the wrong reasons and when they've just woken up and their good days and bad days. Now, I'm not saying that fictional characters are real or should be considered as such -- I merely find it easier to get attached to someone whose daily life and ups and downs and entire personality we see, be they real or no, than to someone who is 50% plastic and always has to be on the lookout for the paparazzi.
