Celebrities

Celebrities are always in news, for one reason or other. They tend to get more limelight when they do something wrong, something unethical or something not done by common man intentionally and carelessly.

Just like most celebrities, Paris Hilton seem to understand or learn at last what it is to act stupid. It was funny and sad at the same time to see her cry like a child when led away to jail for second time. That picture was worth million words.

I had said enough about her stupid ways before but I was thinking about the punishment celebrities are given. The way it works now is that along with celebrities, whole system including the media gets into overtime either trying to save them or hound them. This I think is plain inconvenience to the public and sometimes celebrities seem to enjoy all the mess they create.

Best way to punish these rich brats would be to levy hefty fines. Like say just 5 days of prision and 5 million dollar fine for Hilton. Our very own Salman should be asked to pay 2 crore and 10 days jail for killing chinkara and another crore for DUI. Let Sanjay Dutt pay 10 crores for moving around with anti-socials. Use all these big bucks for better public facilities instead of spending big amount of tax dollars trying to protect and taking care of them. I am sure this big bucks will give them enough grief so as to not act stupid again.

Talking of celebrities, I am just in awe of Tamil Superstar Rajnikanth. Say whatever but he is truely demi-god. The hype his movies create, the power he holds in selecting fellow actors, directors, music composer, writer, even spot boy is unmatched in any part of movie industry. The thing I like most and which sets him apart from other celebreties, is his down to earth mannerism. I guess, that is why he is a real superstar!!

p.s. Song above from Youtube is too funny.

hey mg... nice post... i find it fascinating because i just cant figure out what paris hilton and nicole ritchie are thinking... actually i cant figure out the way that they come to the conclusions that they come to... its scary sometimes to see how things seem to unfold for these people... magar your suggestions about a fine and stuff actually makes sense... but who's going to actually execute it?

I hate the hype celebrities get! In Australia, there is one major tabloid that has a celebrity on every second page - i don't think that's a newspaper at all! And Paris HIlton? I can't believe we're so obsessed with her!

It's crazy isn't it? And yet i would kill to meet Rani Mukerji....

Great entry though!

** Like say just 5 days of prision and 5 million dollar fine for Hilton.

good idea. But that wud never stop em from being stupid. They'd pay emselves out of jail somehow. Somehow they seem to have money trees in their gardens.

I'd say let em suffer like this in jail...Paris I think got the biggest shock of her life. I hope she learns from this experience...or wid she?

Mann : I am sure Paris would be a changed person after she comes out. About who actually gonna do it - As Gandhi said, Be the change you wish to see in world. Maybe someday, if we could have influence :)

Astral : Hey hi. After many days. Hope your doing good.

Lidia : Rani's fan willing to kill anyone ? :)

Keshi : As long as they are willing to part millions of dollars, I would prefer thier stupidity. But I really doubt if they are that stupid...

Velu : No I havent seen Shivaji. Dont understand Tamil. Seen few clips of Chandramukhi to see the hype. Not my type though.

Keshi said...

well even if they r really not stupid, I think it wud take some amount of stupidity to act stupid 24/7!

Keshi.

Mumbai Guy said...

Keshi, I meant they wouldnt be that stupid to give millions after millions. IMHO, they are stupid even if they attempt being stupid for first time.

Keshi said...

hehehehe :)

they are not stupid... these ppl just love to act dumb. ... and it aint cute!!

2 -4 million fine is nothing to them.. they have the money.. just throw them into jail (serve them right...) like paris 45days.... 10 days in prison for salman wont changed anything...
