I doubt the people that complain about pointless celebrities buy the red-tops - I don't, I think they are awful in the effect they have had, the way they report news etc. Britain is the only country that has tabloid newspapers like these also.

I think the events of this Big Brother has shown that there is maybe a nasty side to the pursuit of pointless fame. Is it a coincidence that the four people at the centre of the bullying are four pointlessly famous people (more or less) while the ones that achieved success through talent or work have generally come across as nice people?

Also people worry about the example these famous for being famous people are setting to young people.
