The Fame Connection
In New York City, it seems that it is cool to boohoo to any connection with any form of glam or fame. NYT's journo, Bob Morris, writes a heartfelt confession that he really wants a super-high-profile inconvenience to boohoo about. Because anybody who is somebody complains about the fame connection.
In Singapore, I have friends who get awestruck at every minor celebrity -connection. I also have friends who shun every celebrity-connection and badmouth incessantly about these "celebs". As for me, I guess I don't really care who you are until I know you personally and I like you.
Ok, I lie. If you produce fabulous work, I am likely to be just a little awestruck. But it's all subjective, ainnit?
