“Now that the mystique of so many celebrities is rooted less in their accomplishments than in their ability to get our attention by provoking our disgust, perhaps it’s not fame they’re offering but ‘fame-iness.’” - Feb. 17, 2007, Meghan Daum, Los Angeles Times (Found here.)
No mystique ...just disgust here at the various shenanigans of Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and the like.
