Really?

Like many women, I have become addicted to at least one "America's Next Top Model" season, so this is not to bash Tyra. I think she's doing an awesome job and making big, big moves. My issue is with part of her comment in a recent magazine caption. It went something like, "Barack and Michelle might be on their way to the White House, but I'm on my way to White Castle." This seems like a two-fold effort: 1) it's an attempt to show that she's at least somewhat aware of current politics, and 2) an intent to show that she's just like so many non-millionaires out there who eat at fast-food hamburger joints. I'm not sure why people have the need to do that at all. I use to read "US" magazine, and they would have this silly regular called "Stars are just like us" or some crap like that. Well in this, they would show celebrities eating ice-cream, tying their shoes, buying toilet paper, walking...I mean just ridiculously human things. Why is that something to get excited about? Why would someone think that they don't do human things like eat, shop, have sex, get pregnant, cheat, lie, do drugs, get saved, laugh, cry, celebrate...all those things are normal HUMAN activities, so since celebrities are human, exactly like me and you, why do people make such a big deal about them doing regular things? And why are celebrities sometimes forced to act like they do this regular things? Let me know what you think.
