Is it just me or does it look like those reporters in that dumb show TMZ look like they have no lives & ->?

I do feel sorry for celebrities. We're the ones that created this ridiculous culture of celebrity worship, then we create a need to insert ourselves into the intimate areas of their personal lives to "break them down" and it's ok because they're rich and they're out there as public figures, but guess what. We put them there. We buy what they're selling. Yeah, sure. I guess the money could help someone sleep a little better at night, but I always wonder how random consumer who feels like they have the right to endict say Britney Spears or Colin Farrel because they read in US magazine about how they were so irresponsible and blew up at a fan would hold up to having every single aspect of their life constantly scrutinized. I hate TMZ. I hate US magazine. I hate the whole culture of it, and I hate our sense of entitlement. To believe that just because someone got rich selling records or being in movies gives us the right to know everything about them by invading their privacy. If you don't like that people don't want to tell you everything that much, stop buying the records and seeing the movies. We aren't entitled to anything that they don't want to give us. Just like the plumber or the accountant. They're just entertainers.

I understand and can appreciate a desire to escape into things of no huge consequence. It's a part of why I like watching sports, but I find a huge problem with a whole, giant industry devoted to spying on people whose big crime was being successful in the entertainment industry.

Those people who work on that show are despicable. The guy that is lead on the show is an attorney! Can you believe that? What a waste of an education. I agree. I feel sorry for the celebrities and the way TMZ treats them. It's a darn shame.

It's not just you, they don't have lives. All they do is make a quick buck for sleazy *journalism* and spreading gossip and lies. A lot of people buy into it though, so they continue to stay on air, it's sad, but it's the truth. I find it odd that most people know what so and so celebrity wore to the Oscars, then know what is going on around the world. Real news that matters, shows like TMZ , Access Hollywood, Perez Hilton etc they are all jokes and mindless garbage imo.

No, the people who have no lives are the ones who watch TMZ (The Moron Zone) The reporters are simply getting rich exploiting America's sad obsession with celebrities.

You're right, though, it is a dumb show.

They might be the smartest of us all. I hear you can get payed big bucks for getting just the right picture of a celebrity.

This is what our society has dwindled to, and I sense that the TMZ people are taking advantage.

Ha, you're right but they are ten times as smart as you normal Americans wouldn't last a day if they went to a chinese school. In America, kindergarteners are learning the alphebet, in China they're learning to memorize paragraphs and calligraphy.

i love watching TMZ though

they are pretty entertaining and they seem like they have an easy job

Nope! All they do is wait for celebrities to look stupid, so they can all giggle like a bunch of school girls.

Oh! I've heard of the show twice today now! I'm almost curious enough to check it out. Sounds terribly rude though.

I like that show, but then again I don't have a life either.
