For their own EGO?

People become fans and cynics and endlessly defend or critique celebs, for what... their own ego? No matter how much we claim that we are here because we love celebs or we like ciritiqing them.. somewhere along the line our egos are attached to the criticism or to the endless defending. There are some healthy debates.. but then there are those.. i am always right and you are always wrong debates.. which totally suck in my opinion (I have been part of those too with many others). You cannot stop people who become a part of these debates and its not always right to judge them... coz we all hate to be judged... but still you can't help but think that when the criticism or defending goes to extreme then its more about people's egos rather than celebrities. So why do we all go to such extremes to defend or critique sometimes?? Is it an easy route to boost our ego..?? Is it for the love of celebs.. or is it something else??

In my case mainly onSalman, and to me it's about my celeb, because he gets picked on too much, so less about ego in my case more about the celeb. otherwise, I would argue the same regarding Akshay, but only his movies are criticized so no need really. IYet, Iam those types who once realizes its going on and on I stop.

yet, some gossip is entertaining to read

My ego would be more tied up in how my star feels about me. How I feel about him is my business. It only gets personal when I interact with him and even then I'd be mad to attempt to defend a human against being fallible!
Human is all they are---humans with a particular job that exposes their image to masses of people.
If, as a mother, I have to clearly see (and point out) mistakes made by the one person on earth I love above all others and would willingly die for I sure as hell can't be bothered to feel some ego attachment to some other mother's son's supposed perfection!
That's effing crazy in my book.
And I don't like arguing with people so I'll ignore posts where it seems the person is out to get in my face. They aren't my family or my loves and so aren't worth my time or grief. If they don't understand me fair enough. Sometimes I feel like explaining myself, sometimes I don't.
I'm here to enjoy myself and gain insight into B'town doings.
When the raisin loves ME, then my ego gets involved.😉 And then I won't be able to post much at all since I'll be under a vow of silence.

well when it comes to discussion with biased fans then I am, I hate the Kareena is a goddess and everyone else is a devil mentallity, people judge Hrithik on stuff that is not even true and is made up, my arguement is show me the proof and I will believe, unless u back up your POV, I tend to keep on arguing

Depends on my mood. Sometimes I do it for my fav celeb. Sometimes for my ego. Most of the time, for fun 😉
