Fuck celebrities in general. We need to go back to how the Romans used to view actors.
Actors throughout history have been considered lower class, even often associated with prostitutes. This is true not only in the West, but also in the East.
For example, the Empress Theodora was an actress and prostitute before marrying Justinian, and her history was used against her by political enemies.
In Japan, the Kabuki performers were also often available as prostitutes to patrons.
Given the association between prostitutes and actors it would make sense that actors were looked down upon by more cultured society.
It doesn't even have to be a "view," there's still plenty of evidence of Hollywood itself being a prostitution ring, with actors selling their dignity and bodies for money and fame.
And most of them would be homeless and dead were it not for the millions of dollars and constant rehab. Heck even with all of that they still die more often than the average joe.
Yeah I'm totally going to take advice on who to vote for from someone with 15 DUI's, and who spent more on rehab in the last 5 years than my house costs.
And what's worse is they've been breeding dynasties for 5 generations or so already.
And! Those dynasties have intermarried with political ones.
