One can even see the odd.....WTF, she is not a celeb, shes a prozzie and he shouldn't be considered on the strength of ??????? etc etc.
We now have a roaring discussion on whether or not someones double should be considered and whether or not a skanky slapper who is nothing better than a pariah should be given air time.
It used to be people that we in the limelight, the tv or radio or on the big creen, could be considered as celebs, but nowadays with the media exposure we see on both the tv and internet, there are loads of so called celebs creeping in that some of us have never heard of so my question is....
What constitutes a celebrity.[/QUO
The word means little these days. It certainly doesn't have the same status it used to have.
Nowadays any half wit can become a so-called celebrity - in fact the more they resemble a half wit the more likely other halfwits will vote for them to be given this rather dubious accolade.

Brilliant post Sassy, and the emboldened part is true but also amusing.
