Default Discovering someone's a smoker

This is a phenomenon I've noticed recently; I find it applies especially to celebrities but also to people I'm acquainted with; do you find it weird to discover someone's a smoker? I was a bit surprised/disappointed to discover that Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell were smokers, I think it just shocks me because you obviously don't see them smoking when they're on TV, but particularly with Cheryl I always assumed she was a non-smoker because it seems to me to be a contradiction that popstars - who are physically fit from the dance routines - should then turn out to be smokers. Then, going to people you know in real life, do you get taken aback to find out people are smokers? I was disappointed when some of my friends just suddenly became heavy smokers; and then the other day I was chatting to some friends from my course after a lecture and one of them started smoking. I just find it really weird; it obviously doesn't change my perception of them as a person, but it definitely weirds me out a bit. Anyone else get this?!
