I assure you that talent and your personal opinion have nothing to do with fame in modern society. There are tons of people famous as hell for no real reason other than being famous, but that's just the way it is.

Are you going to tell me that Lindsay Lohan or Paris Hilton aren't practically household names?
So are we now saying that famous and A-list are the same thing? Because I'd argue that. That's what things like the self-destructions of Tom Cruise and Charlie Sheen get so much attention. Because these A-list stars suddenly drop down to the level of a Snooki or a Paris Hilton -- essentially a parody and an "A-star" fizzling out and becoming a black hole of celebritydom.
