Like, why do you care so much if she’s sleeping with a new guy after just divorcing or her coming out or that rich family buying a new mansion? How does that affect your life?

    People like drama and celebs are like casual acquaintances that everyone knows.

      Honestly, that’s pretty close to my reason. It’s more like “I love hot tea, and celebrities are a guilt-free source of it,” though.

      It’s kind of a mutually beneficial relationship, in a way. Many celebrities (not all, the ones that don’t aren’t ones I enjoy hearing about because it feels to much like invading someone’s privacy) thrive on having their names constantly in the tables, and I get enjoyment from the schadenfreude. Kinda like pro wrestling, maybe?
