You know, if someone proclaims their political opinion, they should expect no less of a reaction than when anyone of us spouts off about our political beliefs. Celebs should be prepared to defend themselves. They should expect to get verbally shot down. What happens here on this site? If we can't defend our position, then we shouldn't post our opinion. If Natalie and the whole contingent of mouthy famous people can't take negative feedback, they should just shut the heck up.

When these celebs open their mouths they are going to be forced to defend their position. One that is chuck full of holes. If they were running for political office, their opponent would mop their faces in the dirt with their apalling lack of expertise.

So what if they have a recognizable face and a platform on which to speak? Most celebs have no business saying anything because they know nothing. Unless they can say something substantial, they are doing nothing more than abusing their celebrity status.

The wench/witch in question probably can't spell hegemony. She might not be able to spell lipstick. Crazed linear thinking - "I'm rich + famous = I'm smart and anything I feel like saying should, in fact must, be respected!"
