everyone is entitled to have an opinion. when it comes to opinions, though, there's a difference between the majority of people and celebrities like actors, athletes and rocks stars. if you're an average person, only your family and friends care about your opinion. if your famous, the whole world listens, or so it seems sometimes. is this the way it should be? i don't think so.
we shouldn't pay attention to famous people's opinions just because of who they are. being a famous basketball player doesn't make someone an expert on environmental issues. however, that basketball player has a better opportunity to be heard than most people do. if that player feels very strongly about an issue, he can use his fame to draw attention to it and get other people involved. often, people with causes that aren't well-known ask celebrities to get involved. that way they can draw attention and needed dollars to that issue.
people who are rich put their money behind a cause. in the same way, famous people are using their most valuable asset. in their case, it's not money. it's their name recognition. should people pay attention to what they think just because of who they are? i don't think so. i also don't think we should discount what they think just because of who they are. they have a right to their opinion. if their name draws people to that cause, all the better for the cause.
i think too often we categorize people and try to keep them in their place. celebrities have brains and should be allowed to use them. when they're advocating a cause, their opinion should be just one of many factors we use to evaluate that cause.

as far as i have known, i think we needn't pay attention to the words of the famous people. those famous people may have their own opinions,but let us get down to the foundament and agree that they are not people different from us. they made themselves notable people not because they have enough wits to win a game or do well in act.
they just have their good health or good feature and this is why they succeed. i once met a famous actress. she has lots of fans in china, but when she talked about lu gou bridge,she didn't know why it is well-known among chinese people,even questioned why such a bridge should always be talked by chinese people. let alone her opinion about life.
furthermore, if they do have their own feelings about life, the famous people's opinions are not useful to us. we have our own experience in our life, and we can learn them from our own experience. you may ask why cannot we learn from them then we can avoid the problems in our life. that maybe true, but we can learn these from books, and always books are good teachers of us, why should we bother to pay attention to those people's words.
more over, the famous people always give their opinions when asked by fans or reporters. in such a hurry they cannot even think enough about the question, and they split their words without knowing what they are speaking. in such a case, should we pay attention to their words. almost the most devoted fan will not agree to say 'yes,sir,we should,whatever they may speak.' so, spare your time to do other thing more important than listen to those nonsenses.
so i think we should not pay attention to these opinions.
