You may think this is a strange one, but really, would we care so much about celebrities if we weren't constantly hearing about them? The world of celebrity gossip has taken your average talentless socialite (hi, Paris!) and turned them into superstars. And while we're oohing and ahhing over their latest fashions, boyfriend or mug shot, their stock is rising with every comment (positive or negative) we post about them on a blog—but we can't help it—we're suckers for a good story.
