Another thing I would never do.
I would never, for any reason, stand outside an event that involved celebrities, such as a wedding, a party or a premiere of a film. I can think of much more useful things to do with my time than to stand around for hours hoping to get a glance of people I don't even know. There are actors, actresses and film directors that I truly admire, but a quick glance of them passing by wouldn't do anything for me. I would love to have a chat with them, person to person, but standing around with hundreds of others cheering and calling out their names is degrading. Also, if I'm not invited to a party, I'm certainly not going to belittle myself by hanging around outside like a loser. Even as I write this, there are tourists and other people that have gathered outside the Royal Castle in Stockholm, where the royal family is having some kind of engagement reception. I ask myself, have they nothing better to do with their time? Don't they have lives of their own? Yes, I know, people are for some inexplicable reason fascinated with royalty.
And yes, I am crabby today, and sick of walking on egg shells. Regardless of that, I would still feel the same way about these types of events.

it's because we masses were not made to think but to feel...
seeing celebrities IS pointless and irrational, but it's so sensational...
when i saw gordon ramsay in london...i was like cool!!!! i really want to talk to him!!!!!!!
we masses are easily fascinated indeed
I'd love to see Gordon Ramsey too, but as a person, not as a figure from a distance.
LOL. I love that, 'We masses are easily fascinated'.
That's my problem, I don't like to see myself as being part of some invisible mass. All those people standing around all bunched up together clapping and cheering and jumping up and down at the Oscars when the celebrities stroll out of their limos. I'm sorry, I can't help but find it pathetic. It's not very nice of me I know, but those celebrities are people just like us. No need for screaming.
