I hate this obsession there is nowadays
of knowing everything about people’s private lives. There is a reason why it’s
called a private life and that’s because its private. People will discuss it with
you if they really want to.
Now let’s take a look at this
interview where Krishnan Guru-Murthy asks Robert Downey Jr about his past
addictions. I know he's in the public eye but if he wanted to discuss that
period, he would in his own time and not on a 3 minute interview when being promoted
and interrupted (as he would be.) In this example, the RDJ is there to promote
a movie. He is not there to be asked inappropriate questions about his past.
It just seems like there are too
many people who cross that private line and do not respect their chance at privacy.
It’s the same with celebs being followed around and having pictures taken
wherever they go. Now there’s people who say that they ask for it as it’s a price
to pay for the fame but is that really right? Would you be happy with it? No, I
don’t think you would. Yes, there are some people who have become famous for
that attention but there’s also more people who are just doing it because it’s
a profession they enjoy. It’s wrong. Its plain wrong in my opinion. And it’s
something that really gets me annoyed.
