Some programme wifey was watching had a celebrity introduced.
Who's she? I asked
Oh, she's a girl off gogglebox.
So a girl off gogglebox is now a celebrity

It doesn't particularly matter if you're talented these days, you just have to act like a massive twat or be so stupid you're one IQ point off retarded, or have some boardline mental health issue to become a celebrity.
Take joey essex for example, the kids made an entire career out of being as thick as a donkey's dick and he doesn't even seem ashamed of the fact he's thick. Gemma collins and Jade goodey are another prime example
Or rylan clark famous for what exactly, being some overly camp hysterical gimp who could bearly sing.
Or that alvaro whatever his fucking name is, who was boot off big brother, I only know about him because it was plastered all over the news. famous for mutilating himself.
It sets a geat example for kids these days, you don't need to work hard, just act like a fuckwit and you're laughing.
We should shunning them, or helping them if they need it. Not celebrating them.

Welcome to the Age of Degeneracy in the Second Fall of Rome. The age of a dumbed down populace amused by the most banal entertainment imaginable. It's all just a big distraction. Your leaders are corrupt, your culture is rotting, your economy is based on an ever more unsustainable fiction and you're being replaced. Stop complaining and just sit back and enjoy the ride. When it finally comes crashing down and reality dawns it could be really entertaining, if you were a fly on the wall anyway. ____________________ Prize cunt

Just responding to the downvote and possibly inviting another.
So you believe MPs and to a lesser extent their dalliances don't count as celebrity activity? Why not? They are constantly
on TVand in the press. Household names many of them. The very definition of celebrity. I was reading about Bo-Jo and
his bit of skirt only this morning, somehow finding that more of an appealing read than 20 articles about the latest outfit that
Kardashian slapper has on today. I wonder if my celebrities, ie people that CAN and do make a difference to MY life are
very different to who others may see as important. For instance these influencer types that seem to be everywhere
nowadays. Famous for being photographed doing/wearing/holding stuff and somehow paying the bills with that? I worry
that the youngsters having zero interest in UK politics perhaps seeing it as stuffy and boring are paving the way for those in
power continue to do whatever they like without interference or resistance. Frankly they need our eyes on them and what they
are up to. Like it or not, celebrities they are. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

The ones being slated for doing nothing that deserves celebrity status still fit the topic.
Politicians as celebrities? First, they'd have to do something worth celebrating. There probably possibly are some.
People today rely too much on politicians to make their lives worthwhile though, imho.
Downratings were because, does every fucking thread have to turn into a political row now?!
P.S. It's only a forum ""

How can the first post be off topic???
There are still plenty of people who get out and about exploring, Garth's current adventure might not be sufficient for celebrity status but that is not why most go exploring.
Celeber (Adj, latin) - honoured by a great assembly.
Just because some of us aren't party to that great assembly doesn't change the fact, no matter how often we put our fingers in our ears shut our eyes and chant 'om mani padme hum'. ____________________ Make mine a Corona. |

I'd put his trip higher than the achievements of many a so-called "celebrity". Just a shame he doesn't feel the need to tell us more here, but fair enough.

Allow me to turn that around on you
The current cult of celebrity is certainly no beautiful lotus flower, and most of those that partake are certainly no bright jewels. Imho, of course
Ah, what we need is a new vocabulary, new words for new phenomenon!
Either that, or change the masses ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I think you should all bugger off anyway.
