I don't know...it depends upon the celebrity. Just because someone decides to act for a living, or forms a band, it does not suddenly make them unintelligent, and it certainly doesn't mean they are MORE intelligent.

But I would tend to listen more to some celebrity who has a real interest in various issues, than some plumber who can't think past next Sunday's NFL game.

Do they sway my own opinion. No. But I love this arrogance that we "real" citizens have towards celebrities.

We sit back and love to think that we're smarter than someone who was either talented enough or smart enough to work their way through the machinery that is Hollywood / LA Music scene.
